ishanth poor form in the oneday series was visible. Indian team should have taken precautions for ishanths poor form. Others like Tendulkar,yuvraj, should support him. in case he does not click in the next match the others should be prepared to bowl

you are wrong...he played Mcgrath only once in Australia in 1999 and his avg was 46.xx...anyway it was far better than everyone else except Laxman...so whats your problem? accept he is the best among all indians...how many more stats do you want?

I thought your only problem was counting. :)
But you are a poor story writer too. :)
When McGrath didn't even dare to face Sachin in 2004 and 2008, he sure must hve got Sachin's wicket about 3 times in his career, right? :) That's why he rates Sachin above Lara and Steve Waugh, right? :)

ponting is harbhajan's bunny...does that make him any lesser player than what he is already?
in 1992 tour- he was the only 1 who made 2 century (perth and ssydeny) in 1999 tour- he was the only 1 who was making run- 1 century(dravid 93 in 6 innings, ponting made more runs bt that was against poor attack of india)
in 2004 tour- inspite of bad form he could manage avg of 74(only tour when other indian batsman did better bcoz sachin was out of form)
in 2008 tour -again 2 century n 2 half century -best run scorer.

but he did play 1999 series where sachin avg was 46.xx. Dravid avg was around 10.xx. In 2004, Dravid and Laxman made mince meat of useless Australian attack.

How many of the above did we win? He only plays well when there is no pressure of winning when the rest of team is crap and he knows well lose anyway or when he is about to cross some milestone like 17000 runs or 30000 runs

Good point. But some crazy Aussie fans on the forum are still convinced that Ponting and company did some fantastic wonders by picking up 3 world cups in the pyjama cricket. :)
Sachin and Gambhir were good today.Gambhir at the way he is playing is almost matching sachins consistency if every thing goes well he too is likely to come close to 30 centuries in tests . If he plays consistently he might reach sachins record which seems highly unlikely at this point of his cricketting career
