A blessing in disguise: Champions trophy loss
by Nikhil Shah on Oct 04, 2009 09:36 AM

After the recent Sri-Lanka win In Srilanka, there was talk about the quality of our fast bowling resources. Both Ishant and RP were over-rated and the sudden decline in form and ability was a surprise for everyone. Even Zaheer thought Nehra/Ishant was a good pair. The ODI bowling lineup will consolidate after this loss and dropping RP and Ishant was not justified after the Sri-Lanka ODI win in the Compaq Cup which India won because of Sachin's hundred.

Let us look at the ODI only economy rates of the following bowlers:

Sreesanth 59 wkts @31.45 E/R=5.78
Ishant 46 wkts @31.40 E/R=5.67
RP Singh 65 wkts @33.86 E/R=5.42
Irfan Pathan 152 wkts @29.91 E/R=5.25
Agarkar 288 wkts @27.85 E/R=5.07

Nehra 110 wkts @29.33 E/R=4.84
Zaheer 225 wkts @29.18 E/R=4.86
Praveen 33 wkts @30.21 E/R=4.83
Munaf Patel 46 wkts @31.82 E/R=4.81

Ojha 12 wkts @28.00 E/R=4.20
Harby 219 wkts @32.94 E/R=4.26
Mishra 4 wkts @37.75 E/R=4.79

This clearly indicates that an average eco rate of
5.0 will results in 250 runs in 50 overs, as compared to the average team eco rate of 4.5 of 225 runs. Because average ODI eco rates of the bowling team was
5.0 India gave up 300 runs in recent times when bowling first. This will give us a change to drop RP and Ishant in the ODI series and India can opt for a
better ODI bowling team which will have a team eco bowling rate of less than 4.5. The bowlers are Zaheer, Nehra, Praveen and Munaf.

I sorry to be a fan...

Who ever support Dhoni, pls see last 25 ODIs and T20s stat, that India and chennai Superkings had played, and see how he performed under pressure and without pressure.(same did happened when windies took our first two wickets cheaply.luckily that boy Virat was there) Whats more, when it is about an award from the The President of India, he is the one who thinks to skip the event in order to make him available for an ad shoot. And u say he's patriot??? if yes, then no comments sir. (and u think Indian players represent Republic of India or the billion people, just watch soccer world cup . Whenever they lost a match, especially a crucial one to reach quarter, semi or final, most of them leave the field with tears in their eyes. how many of our cricketers will have that??? even our greatest player was smiling yesterday. Ok, you can say that Dhoni and his men are COOL.. but remember there are 1000s of FOOLS who shed tears for Indian cricket team. I mean for "INDIA" cricket team. Who bunk their important classes, jobs and all. The funniest part is that most of those FOOLS including me dont know how to play that game properly :-).And we are the ones who talk to improve the game too. So expect no change ..Today, Tommorow or even day after tommoro. Let's watch Billiards for a change. Atleast our MAN is the WORLD CHAMPION. hats off!

Ind vs Pak ODI ch trophy
by anooo on Oct 01, 2009 08:25 PM  | Hide replies

It has always found that on need Tendulkar did nothing and I am sure he will do nothing ever till his career end. But surprise to see another man Dravid always chasing 300 odd runs he play like test match and never increase run rate after the establishing him in the field, the result pressure goes to other player and they got out. From out side it visible clearly and every Indian understand, but happens nothing change on Tendulkar or Dravid. I am sure it is big big big big tragedy for Indian team.

Our poor performance

It is only a luck that Australia reached semifinal. Had it not scored a couple of runs we will be in semifinals. So we should not feel bad about our performance. It is only oure badluck.

The Indian Cricket Team
by Bob Shivaram on Oct 01, 2009 06:47 AM

I am in agreement with Akram's comments and more. They do look jaded and lack the intensity required of a champion side. I do hope all is well within their ranks. I hear stories that the age old malaise of a divide between the youngsters and the oldies has cropped up once again. Dravid does not seem to command the cricketing respect of his team mates. While I do not discard the fact that he scroed a pile against Pakistan , his rate of scoring was deplorable for a one day game and I believe his lack of understadning with his partner at the wicket,Gambhir - which lead to the later being run out was the turning point which eventually lead to India's ouster.
Dhoni seems to have lost his stuff and perhaps his unquestionable leadership is now being questioned. Sehwag, Gambhir and Yuvraj are waiting in the wings.
Talent has never been in question. it is its application both physically and mentally that is concerning.
It would do Team India good , if the upcoming players are given fast and bouncy pitches that will help s deal with the short -pitched stuf on a continual basis and also give our pacers a chance to last a little longer stint to stint.
