You know what, Draws killed Test cricket. Batsmen and Bowlers played for personal records. They play for centuries of 5 wicket or 10 wicket hauls. Just take help of statistics and find out how many tests ended up in a draw. Only, in the recent times, tests are producing results. So, it is selfishness of players is destroying the test cricket and NOT the Twenty20s or ODIs.

You are not trying to understand the point which Dravid tried to keep infront of people. He is saying, if someone gets money and fame in T20 or ODI, why anyone would try for Test cricket, which is long game - He is saying by T20 and other short format, it has became the show business now and quick money making business thts wht is killing test cricket

You senior guys killed the real Cricket spirit of all junior players and all Indians. We know that Dravid plays test cricket just for media coverage. He is the only cricketer scores at the lowest run rate. Just stand in the ground for media coverage. And he is the person comment on talented Youngesters . Dravid and Sachin must retire from all forms of Cricket immediately

hey CS get your facts right before you even talk. Dravid and Sachin have the best test averages. And for your kindest information, non of the youngsters can match them in tests. Dravid just does not talk. He performs and that goes with Sachin as well. THey let their bats do the talking. Time and again it was their staying at the wicket that won or saved matches for us. So just learn about test cricket before you talk

Fight against unfairness will stay.
Selectors find it very hard to break this jink or combo of captain-wicketKeeper-batsmen with no credible competition, they are forced to make the deal instead
For selectors, it is hard to break the jinx or combo and try zaheer or sehwag for the necessary captaincy rotation.
why not make sehwag or zaheer the captain!
Any competition for wickeKeeping and captaincy is treated badly by dhoogi and his boot licker.
Whereas, they shift the blame from captaincy and wicket-keeping rotation to bowling or batting or fielding
Dhogi and his boot lickers shift blame to bowling and batting rotation. when rotation should be for all departments.

ON stats and records, this arrrse Dhoogi has lost last 1 dayer and last T20, so they hyppeee only one sided newss. Give credit for the rest of 10 players effort to dhoogi
So screeew those hyppeeed recooords/stats and leave it for book raaaping baabuaaa to dig out more statistical gaaarbaaage.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Fidayeen or gate crashers for T20, Dravid
by E darwin on Feb 23, 2010 11:10 PM
last 1 dayer and last T20 = last world 1 dayer and last world T20
Time to give credit fidayeens like Joginder S (who made use win first T20), etc. And the rest of 10 players.
Reminds me of free slurper Atal Bihari vajpaaye who slurped all tactical moves for Unknown people, slurped all the credit , even has name for Kargil colonies all over india when he tactially did a diiick on his own about war stratefy...
Not to say gandhis and their sacrifice stories are any better.
Make sreeshanth the captain of India.He’s multi-talented.He can raise the team’s morale by abusing the opponent team.Entertain the team by dancing and acting.He has the guts to get beaten by anybody.He is multi-talented batting,wicket-keeping,fielding(all except bowling).
Re: sreeshanth the captain

Good one. We can't really undermine Sreesanth, actually he is Bauxite that could become Aluminium if leaves behind his arrogance and become more desciplined, determined and well behaved.
Re: sreeshanth the captain
by E darwin on Feb 23, 2010 10:39 PM
dhoogi will make his life impossible if he know sreesanth has fig of a chance to be captain.
Look at how many years with all sort of antics that he has kept genuine competition at bay.
Dravid in New T20 format or being out of form, his wicket-keeping & captaincy combination would have sailed him
Re:Watch out-Dravid should have stuck to wicket-keeping as well
He needs to learn from manipulator babuaa like Dhogi who takes advantage of any cricket format by using different Indian Gate crashers i.e fidayeens.
Dhogi faces very less competition due to combination of Captaincy-WicketKeeping-batting.
The batting comes handy when Dhogi puts himself in proper place in batting order according to the conditions.
Dravid should have stuck to wicketkeeping, because that way, his position is safe due to combo of wicket-keeping and captaincy.
Captaincy allow one to shuffle their batting order somewhere in middle to shift score acceleration burder to top and low order batsmen.
Then, avoid the topic of rotation of captaincy and wicket-keeping by shifting the blame for woes on bowling and batting.
To add to the woes, Captain can change the order of other batsmen per his own convenience to kick out the competition and unfavourable players.
Manipulator in-charge of captaincy and wicket-keeping can take all the credit for Victory and eject unfavourable gate crasher in team upon loss.
Drop catches and stumping of unFavourable bowlers as well.
Selectors find it very hard to break this jink or combo of captain-wicketKeeper-batsmen with no credible competition, they are forced to make the deal instead

by Medulla Oblangta on Feb 23, 2010 10:36 PM
Zaheer and Viru are clearly the bowling and batting anchors of India but not suitable for captaincy as they don't have adequate temperament for that. Excellent performers can't be excellent leaders always. Sachin, Chanderpaul and Kavin Pieterson are examples of it.

NOOO, fully wrong. This is what babuaa fFanatics say.
Look at how Babuaa dhoogi sShunted Misra out in next test when he made sehwag win the previous test in Bangladesh.
this shows howw fFukked up is dhoogi and how out of control has he become.

To me you like an anti-Dhoni fanatic. Moreover whats this babua camp? Whatever may be the reality behind the scene but on records Dhoni is most successful captain after Ganguly and he might even surpass Ganguly's test victories record if he keeps on going like this.
