India had done a blunder by not playing inform amit mishra because he would had definately be a handy as a legspinner, look sahid afridi and other leggie from pakistan. The other blunder that dhoni did was he gave bowling to Virat kohli.At that time pakistan were under tremondous pressure because fall of three early wickets and the two out of form batsmen were new to crease.By giving virat the bowling Dhoni lossened the pressure and allowed the batsmen to set and feel good.Instead of giving bowling to virat he could have used either sachin' legspin , or suresh raina as well.He could have brough harbhajan singh much early in the game to put pressure on the batsmen. In the next game India should go with Praveen kumar and Amit mishra and may be he can give rest to R.P singh

yup i agree with ya...they shud play amit mishra thereby dropping yousuf pathan or R.P singh or ishant sharmra! i jus wished if they wud have got injured inspite of yuvi,sehwag,zaheer! or we shud give chance to a new potential bowler

wow north next time bring on the west india team and then south and east as well you are all just hype. plain and simple. you think IPL is cricket, dancing girls and all. I call this Team Bollywood. they are seen more on the adds than on field
Indian cricketers always have a parallel income/career.... Every player who perform well during his initial days of career, starts getting offers from advertisements and company endorsements... They earn more fame and money from the parallel source rather than their primary profession. Once their bank balance are full... then it does not matter for them if the loose or win.... That very passion and urge to win, earn, fame gets diluted in their primary profession.
Over a period of time... cricket becomes just a part time job for them.

No.... they should be barred from doing any advertisements....
No corporates or company allow their employees/contractors to work at 2 places at same time... Cricketers are also employeers/contractors of BCCI... Then why this rule does not apply to them ???
aow na pyaar karien! IPL tigers once again perish? I guess Afridi when he said they will give india 110% was true. Pak could have score 320 had he stayed then the margin of win would have been much more! Dhoni's interview in the end "Raina got a tough one" showed what heis about. Always complaining. he was clearly out the bowl hitting the boot before the bat what was tough there? Now when you will say pakistan never wins against india in ICC, one should remember 2004 and 2009 they comprehensively beat india! Actually the young pakistani's won the much hyped IPL team! next time bring on team INDIA!
First of all, its not Malik's innings which set up pakistani victory, its our own R.P. SIngh and yusuf pathan who set up india's defeat. When raina was out, one shld play a responsible innings, you have got overs in hand, but what prompted yusuf to play such irresponsibly. He is another Rohit, tested again and again and he is useless. R.P. Singh is the culprit, who set the momentum for the pakistanis. When R.P. SIngh in the team, there is nothing wrong that sreesanth should be brought back. We want that kind of aggression against our archrivals. He is the best bowler than R.P. SIngh and Irfan. Yusuf's place itself is not guaranteed and he vouches for his brother, irfan by using the ill fated words against the selection commitee. He wants all his family members in the team irrespective of how they plays, and earn money

Irfan is better allrounder than the most. He had made difference in the Indian batting side too.
