Only one test win at SA soil - Thanks to Sreesant
by jjoo o on Dec 14, 2010 08:10 PM

Do you know that India had only one test win at South African soil all these years.The full credit goes to Sreesanth.
He was India's best bowler on India's last tour of South Africa in 2006 with a tally of 18 wickets in three Tests, including a match-winning haul of 8/99 at the Wanderers in Johannesburg.
Only if our bowlers perform India has chance.It is better to add 3 pacers-Zaheer,Sreesanth & Ishant and one spinner-Harbhajan.
Our batsmen will find SA very difficult.

Be Careful
by rajratan2323@rediffmail.com on Dec 14, 2010 12:03 PM

Police has to be careful. Since Indian teamis involved there will be lot of curruption.Indians are known to fix matches so that Indian team wins as Money and cricket goes hand in hand in India. Just remember how during Hansie cronje tour of India, the matches were fixed so that India could win .It helps for money if India wins .Indian currupt have influenced every cricket team. Just as how terrorism is linked to Pakistani islamists in some way or other, cricket curruption is always linked with India. India one of the most currupt country.

TEST MATCHES ARE SUPREME TEST OF SKILL AND MIND!!
by Crickbufff on Dec 14, 2010 09:37 AM


I think it will be a good series followed by India's tour to England (after the World Cup)!!

Watch out for: Dhoni and Raina in SA!
All others would have to chip in though!

Wasim Akram made a good point
by vathula on Dec 14, 2010 07:55 AM

If India wants to win the World Cup, this S.Africa series is not going to help. Injuries, defeat, etc., will affect the momentum that India already has.
Also, the flat India tracks where the world cup is played will help Gambhir, Sachin, Raina and Dhoni who will play both the world cup and SAfrica. These 4 will be terrorised in S Africa!

India will likely lose.....Talk is cheap...Money is not
by vathula on Dec 14, 2010 07:43 AM

Those Indians who say that India will win can put their money where their mouths are. The odds, current price, is roughly 2 to 1.
I welcome all those jingos who think india will win can legally earn and double their money by betting on India! Don't talk here...Just do it.

Bullshit..Indians NO MORE scared of bounce and pace, definitely India will do well. They have the depth in batting, a shrewd captain and may not be top of world but balanced bowling attack. If all the team is fit and free of injuries. India will win the series.

Nothing new

I am still unable to recollect hwn it was the last time Indian batting was weak. India always feel its batting is the best since 1978 onwards as they always have elevated averages of flat track bullies and invariably plays more than 80 Test matches each and in the process accumulating centuries. These so called best batsman crumble if opposition has quality bowlers and lively tracks. Yes they do score well when oppositionteam is in transition and takes full advantage against newcomers.

Dear
I would like to remind you that the best batting line up of Indian team ever was in the 1960s when India started their winning campaign by beating England in India led by Ted Dexter and the Indian team was being led by Nariman Contractor. India had the smallest tail at that time The team consisted of
Nariman Contractor,
M.L. Jaisimha,
Vijay Manjrekar,
Budhi Kundran (WK)
Poly Umrigar,
Chandu Borde,
Salim Durrani,
Surendranath
Ramakant Desai Bapu Nadkarni et al. The batting at that time was so strong that the great all rounder Bapu Nadkarni had to come at 8th down. That was the starting point of Indian batting which became stronger and stronger with introduction of batsmen like Sunil Gavaskar, Dalip Sardesai, Gundappa Vishwnath, Farooq Engineer, et all and one of the last person in the Cricket History but the most prominent is Ek Nath Solkar, who in fact introduced the Forward Short leg fielding position and believe me he used to stand at the hand shake position of the batsman and what an eye sight he had. One of his catches at this position I cannot forget. That was in Delhi and most probably in 1974 against England when a ball from Chandrashekhar was looped towards leg side, he dived on te back and took an impossible catch which he made it look easy.
