true ...a true entertainment..But you probably forgot to mention the entertainment Badri and M Vijay provided. Have u seen a batsman dancing on a cricket pitch ?? Well These 2 gentelmen were dancing to the tunes of Steyn and Morkel. WOW , what a watch man. You missed this once in a lifetime sight.

He didnt SCORE it he just MANAGED it sir.... On their day even MISHRAs, BHAJJIs, JOHNSONs have MANAGED such 50s...
The tamil Girls Vijay and badrinath don;t have any clue against Steyn and Co. They don;t know what is inswinger, what is outswinger, what is a bouncer and are completely clueless. The tamil idiots are not the future of india. They can play for Tamil Nadu high school teams and not for Indian cricket.It's better to remove these girls and also the Mummy (Srikanth) so that team india can show more improvements. They are more talented cricketers than these tamil girls. Their contribution is nil in this match. This Tamil idiot Srikanth will select only tamil nadu players as long as he is in selection committee. Three tamil idiots who don;t have any potential for future is unfortunate for india. We have Pujara, Rahanae, nair, Pathans, Pandey, Kaif and several other players who are far better than these tamil idiots.

Re: Re: Re: Sack Vijay, Badri and Dinesh Karthik Immediately
by pradeep rodwal on Feb 16, 2010 05:01 AM
Sreeni..the selection of Badri and M Vijay ahaed of Raina and Rohit Sharma is out of my mind as well. These TALENTED players were dancing to the tunes of Steyn in the first test....Is this the future of India Cricket?? Is this what we call the best of domestic circuit ??
I leave it open for debate but I reckon even Abhishek Nayar and Manish Pandey are better players than these two.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Sack Vijay, Badri and Dinesh Karthik Immediately
by Sameer on Feb 16, 2010 06:22 AM
wait what ? You are considering raina a possible Test batsman. He has been found vulnerable against Quality bowling in ODI itself and you are talking about him being test batsman. Rohit sharma was injured in previous match and frankly has always squandered opportunities given to him over the past 2 years. Pandey, NAYAR HAVE NOT DONE BETTER than badri or vijay in Tests in INDIA. Check Cricinfo for more details. If you don't know how to, ask your 4th grade cousin to show you that.
Atleast do some research before you blurt our blanket statements such as this

@ramakrishnan
Pandey doesn't even have a great record in tests in India on crappy pitches against pathetic bowlers. He doesn't even feature in any county team. Are you badrinath's coach/team member to judge the number of strokes badrinath has ?
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sack Vijay, Badri and Dinesh Karthik Immediat
by ramakrishnan s on Feb 16, 2010 08:18 AM
Sameer, did not know manish pandey has played tests too! Badri has very limited strokes and one can't survive against international teams merely on defensive techniques only. We need to take in guys who have both skills and a good technique. Manish pandey has shown grt skills in the IPL and was the leading scorer in domestic matches and did well against the south africans in the warm up match, so could be given a chance to see how he shapes up.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sack Vijay, Badri and Dinesh Karthik Immediat
by pradeep rodwal on Feb 16, 2010 06:45 AM
They cant read pace, cant read bounce and cant read swing. WTF domestic performance they are carrying the baggage of. This Badri guy was a failure in IPl too while Manish Pandey was the first Indian to score a humndred in IPL infront of world class bowlers. STOP watching/reading the matches on cricinfo and start watching it on TV or in stadiums..If you dont know what channel is broadcasting a match when...just try to turn some pages in ur cricinfo, they will tell you.or just ask your kindergarten cousin he will tell you...

@pradeep , So Pandey scoring 1 century in a t20 Club cricket qualifies himself as a viable INTERNATIONAL TEST BATSMAN ?
And the failure of badri at club t20 matches should be considered while selecting Test players ?
NICE !!
Hmm I wonder.... laxman hasn't ever done good in IPL, should he be dropped from the Test team as well ?
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sack Vijay, Badri and Dinesh Karthik Immediat
by pradeep rodwal on Feb 17, 2010 02:47 AM
Thats a horrible logic, Sameer. Going by your logic, T20 and IPL performance should not be taken into account while selecting a player. Mind you, It his performance in T20, that marked Gambhir's arrival in international cricket. Same with Yuvraaj, he just reinvented himself after those 6 sixes. The logic you have given above is a 4th grade kid. And yes, add to this list the names of Ravinder Jadeja, Yusuf Pathan, Suresh Raina and Ashish Nehra.
Re: Re: Re: Sack Vijay, Badri and Dinesh Karthik Immediately
by Sameer on Feb 16, 2010 05:45 AM
Not really... Their performance in the domestic circuit has been very consistant, hence they were picked. You can get pandey,pujara and Co and still face the same issue. You know why ? its because of the quality of bowlers and pitches these batsmen have been facing in India. The pujara's, Pandey's , Badrinath's, Vijay's have good scores against pathetic BOWLERS. obviously they willl struggle against quality bolwers like Steyn. Let this be a lesson to all you numbskulls who call for retirement of the fab 3.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Sack Vijay, Badri and Dinesh Karthik Immediately
by sreenivasulu reddy on Feb 16, 2010 05:55 AM
Sameer - I agree with you. But unfortunately these 3 might to have to retire in another 2 to 3 years. Selectors should start identifying the batsmen who can be future of india. I strongly believe that Badri, Vijay, Karthik are not the future of india. They can score heavily against Bhutan. They are so scared to face Agarkar

The need of the hour is a champion supe fast bowler... We dont need the FASTEST SPINNERS in the world anymore...and pls whoever comes now , let him not be trained by GREATEST Venkatesh Prasad. He has a unique talent of converting the fast bowler into a spinner. He has done the same with RP Singh, Ishant Sharma and to Irafan Pathan... I think Allan Donaldd, Courtney Walsh, Courtley Ambrose will be the best candidates....

Unless ICC changes the rules of the game and allows 11,500 players in the team instead of a mere 11, you can keep shouting the same profanities on the forum.... :)
BTW, if you select Rahane, Pujara, Nair, Pathans, Pandey, Kaif and several others, then where will you fit Sachin, Sehwag, Gambhir, Dhoni, Harbhajan, Zaheer, Jadeja, Kohli, Mithun, Ojha, VVS, Dravid, Ishant, Parthiv, Rohit, and couple hundred others? :)

by Bhavik Shankar on Feb 16, 2010 05:55 AM
why kick out jadeja he has done nothing wrong for india
Jaidev Unadkat is a left handed pacer who bowled at an avg speed of 138 in u-19 wc for india,he is zippy and has great bounce,I don't understand why mithun was dropped,don't understand why tyagi was dropped,and no sure how ishant is still there and so is badri,manish,poojara,nayar,dhawan all are capable enough,what is wrong with selectors?
it is not about how you play.. i think it is ur love and the performance together... Sachin i dnt knw wht to say abt u... Sehwag keep up the good work...
I don't intend to be harsh BUT in Indian cricket one must prove his ability very quickly. It's a curse of the game in India where Indians need want to see guys perform superbly in their second or third match itself. Unfortunately in this series, Murali Vijay and Subramaniam Badrinath have proved fragile as test batsmen. It's obvious that they are unable to handle top quality test match bowling. The Ranji trophy's class is very low compared to international cricket and we can see why. I have always been a stern supporter of ODI cricketers coming into test lineups. In this match the Indian selectors should have played Suresh Raina instead of Badrinath.
I don't understand why Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara are kept outside. Sachin Tendulkar, Dravid and Laxman can't play forever. It's time India builds up a team for the future. I still support M.Vijay and Badri to be in the squad. You can't remove them just after 2 games. They are the future of Indian cricket.
On an ending note, I honestly don't think Murali Vijay is a genuine no.3 test batsman. He should open the innings and let Gambhir come one down. Badri should be put on the bench and let Suresh Raina come into the side.

Jay, maybe its time you put your brain to rest. Writing 2 sentences has overheated it and hence you are sounding stupid. This is the problem with fans such as yourself. 2 failures and you are asking Gambhir to be moved down the batting order. The part where he scored 5 consecutive centuries has been conviniently forgotten.

Taking it from a purely cricketing standpoint (instead of the politicisation of the issue as attempted by you), Badri, Vijay and Saha played much better in at least one innings than our ICC #1 test batsman who opens the innings... :)

Against Pseodos …. What a logic man…
We just cant compare Badris, Pujaras and Vijays with Gambhir?? Can we??
How can we just forget Gambhir’s recet exploits?? This failure of Gahbhir came on a heap of Hundreds he has scored recently. There is a difference between a ‘failure once in a while’ and ‘just inability to read the pace, swing and the bounce of the bowl” Latter was the case with Badri and Vijay. They were just dancing to the tunes of Steyn..didnt you notice???

Again, I am back at it now..Why not to give Badri and M Vijay chances against Bangladesh and other minnows.. Why to play them against SA...What did Kris Shrikanth think, these two will score as much as they are doing in domestic circuit??
And yes, Gambhir has scored in Aus against Aus, in Eng against Eng, in WI against WI, in NZ agaist NZ.. Do Badris and M Vijay have it in themselves to do this ??

Indians in general are not too good against that type of bowling.... So your statements against Murali and Badri may not really mean as much as you want them to mean... :)
