SACHIN LEFT A LOT OF BALLS WHICH WERE WIDE OUTSIDE THE OFFSTUMP. SEHWAG WOULD HAVE BLASTED MANY OF THOSE FOR 4s. WHY SACHIN IS SO AFRAID TO PLAY THOSE BALLS IN THE WHOLE SERIES. HE SHOULD CHANGE HIS GAME.

20-30 run cameo never wins u matches but 80 runs of 100 balls win ODI. Thats the reason why sachin has world record of maximum MOM(it means maximum match winning inning) while sehwag has won very few ODI. Sachin MOM/per inning score is 7 i.e he wins every 7th match on his own. That also a world record. 62 MOM in 450 matches. Dhobi has only 4 MOM in 150 matches. Neha darling learn some cricket before commenting on living legend of criscket sachin.

sachin has played for more than 20 yrs.he plays for the team.he knew that if he would be able to bat 40 overs india would win that what he was trying to do
RAHUL DRAVID WAS DROPPED FROM THE INDIAN SIDE AFTER SOME GOOD PERFORMANCES BY HIM. THE REASON TOLD BY THE SELECTION COMMITTEE WAS THAT ON INDIAN PITCHES HE IS NOT NECESSARY. AND NOW HOW KOHLI IS PLAYING? HOW RAINA IS PLAYING? NOONE CAN OCCUPY THE CREASE IN THE MIDDLE OVERS 15-35. IF DRAVID WAS THERE INDIA WOULD HAVE WON THE LAST MATCH.

dravid again ??? ..... joke of the century, his inclusion was unjustified not exclusion ..... learn to support the game and the team not individuals!
Re: Re: Re: RAHUL DRANVID :selection committee rethink pls
by Vijayan on Nov 03, 2009 01:25 PM
Dravid will be unfit even for 100-100 ..... all yougsters are far far better than Dravid who will only ensure smaller margin of loss, not victory - many many games he has done that to swell his average in ODIs!

Is Sachin's record better in recent times. If Dravid were given the same chances he would score as much as Sachin does. In India Sachin is God. No one will dare to criticise him.

What about young friend dhoni. Who ensured defeat in all 4 matches of T-20 & ICC wcup by occupying the crease, not striking the ball & playing politics.Only aim is to maintain his avg & retain captaincy. Do not talk double standrad Mr Vijayan. Dhoni strike rate is pathetic less than 100 in T20 lowest among all cricketers, reason for many of india defeat but still continuing as captain.

age is not a criteira for selection but at the end of the day he has become 36 years of age.will he play in 2011 world cup
Re: RAHUL DRANVID :selection committee rethink pls
by Dhantannan on Nov 03, 2009 01:07 PM
true.. people say his strike rate is poor. what abt sachin ? he is utilising powerplay , still his strike rate is lower than even dravid.
Re: Re: RAHUL DRANVID :selection committee rethink pls
by Vijayan on Nov 03, 2009 01:14 PM
you sick minds even Dravid would scream listenting to this, dont compare a legend with others!
Pure over confidence for our team , this australian is not even full strength and looking by the way india had to be winning atleast 7-0 against this side depeletd australian side , but still we are struggling i think we still have lots of things to improve before claiming the no 1 spot
Re: Over confidence
by Kenneth Anderson on Nov 03, 2009 01:04 PM
I think it would be better if the team just STOPs worrying about the No.1 spot and just focus on playing good and improved cricket...The top spot will come to them automatically.

We Indians always try to water the leaves of the plant leaving away the roots (and try to justify ourselves by saying that it is the leaves that we want to be fresh and green).
Be it our education - we work for marks not knowledge Be it politics - we fall for short term freebies not look for long term benefits
Re: Over confidence
by ASHISH KUMAR on Nov 04, 2009 01:08 AM
Against full Aussie strength, only sachin, laxman & dravid can survive. Dhoni & his young friend will runaway if they had to face likes of Mcgrath, Gillespie, Bret lee, warne etc at same time.
INDIA WON THE TOSS AND ELECTED TO FIELD..AT THAT MOMENT ITSELF INDIA LOST THE MATCH. AUS WAS UNDER PRESSURE B4 THE MATCH. IF INDIA HAD BATTED FIRST AND SCORED ONLY 220 THEN ALSO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DIFFICULT FOR THE AUS TO GET THAT TOTAL. SINCE THEY ARE PLAYING UNDER PRESSURE. DHONI MADE A BIG MISTAKE. THIS IS NT FOR THE FIRST TIME AN INDIA CAPTAIN MADE SUCH MISTAKES. IN WORLD CUP FINAL AGAINST AUS GANGULY DID THE SAME .
Re: INDIA LOST AT THE TOSS
by Vijayan on Nov 03, 2009 01:22 PM
You dont understand the game at all it shows, evening dew was the factor which doesnot help the bowlers, so to take feilding was the right decision. the batsmen failed to deliver is the reason for loss! Again what Ganguly did in 2003 was also correct (unlike as understood the south indian media), just the opening match in 2003 WC against Aussies India batted first and got all out for 125, and Aussies won easily, similarly in 1999 WC Pakistan bated first and got out for 132 against same Aussies, who easily won that time even, so batting first didnot ensure India's victory. Aussies were far far superior that time compared to anyone then, only foolish Ganguly critics blame it on him!

NOW I KNOW UR KNOWLEDGE OF CRICKET. ITS NOTHING. DUE IS NOT A BIG FACTOR. IN DELHI AND NAGPUR IT WAS SHOWN. IF THERE WAS MUCH DUE U CANT HELP IT. ITS ALL ABOUT WEATHER.
Re: Re: Re: INDIA LOST AT THE TOSS
by Vijayan on Nov 03, 2009 01:27 PM
Yesterday the match was at mohali, (where dew is a huge factor) not delhi ..... even poor in geography too!
Indian team should use the rest of the Matches becoz , so many powerfull players were rules out of the match due to injury in Australlia team . If not indian teams are use less .

They are absolutely professionals and play for the pride of their national team without compromising on the interest of the team for their own personal aggrandisements as some of us do for so long inspite of so much writings on the wall. all are equal and some are more equal in Indian cricket perhaps.

India is also tryin hard to win matches but australians are also coming strongly.I dont understand what's wrong with people.That is the beauty of this game.Its not a must that india should win all the matches.
Re: Re: the reasons aussie B are winning..
by Pradeep Mohan on Nov 03, 2009 01:16 PM
Sandeep,
We are not expecting India to win all it's matches. We want them to win the matches they are expected to win (chasing 250 was not a herculean task) and they were expected to win against a depleted australian side.
Re: the reasons aussie B are winning..
by ASHISH KUMAR on Nov 04, 2009 01:12 AM
dhoni is most political captain & selfish player india ever produced. Playing only for avg & captaincy.
A battle between a master and a rookie - where the master was made to look like a "ROOKIE" - Bollinger and Nathan Hauritz "U BEAUTY" .The fire power from this two talented cricketers is enough to burn down the carriers of players like Endulkar,Kohli,S Raina. Hats off Aussies.
Re: Writing on the walls
by ASHISH KUMAR on Nov 04, 2009 01:14 AM
why didn't u mention name of politician dhoni who scored 23 out of 48 balls, got out at crucial time in ur list.
Aust bench is better than India's best. Even NSW will kick Ind. India still has not been top ranked Test or ODI team even once after decades of playing among just 7 countries!
Re: No difference: Ind will continue to lose
by ASHISH KUMAR on Nov 04, 2009 01:17 AM
In aus no one can dare to write against Bradman. But in india its fashion to write against legend of cricket sachin. We donot deserve to win in cricket against professional & sporty country like Australia.
