fudging the accounting numbers and bad railway quality to show Profits after successive failures was lallos game.
Now Dhogi is good at politics as well. HECK MAN, how long will BCCI take to decide the captain for 1 day and test between sehwag, zaheer and harbajan, since tendulkar and dravid dont want to be counted.
It is like Ram Dev, yogas was invented by rishis who live with minimal in jungles while Ram Dev takes all the fame.
This is close on the heels of Sehwag's seemingly overconfident comment. We know that Sehwag is known for such comments. Remember he used to say he felt 'sorry' for bowlers who get hit by him ? It's funny that he says this with straight face. Wish Sehwag good luck.

Please do not forget about the proud statement of British Govt about Titanic which will never sink. And about their their Worship named "Prince of Wells" which was sank down by the Japanese. Same way Bangladesh may beat India because of Sehhwag's remark.

I read in Cricinfo that this is the sehwag goes to any press conference. I think he is right in the sense, Bangladesh does not have quality bowlers to bowl out india twice. But that does not stop our guys getting out themselves with some very loose shots

Doubting thomas. The fantasy you guys have in your heads is quite amazing. You should be story writer.

Even in test match he is not a star. He does bowl short most of the times or quite full. With BL it might be OK, but with good teams he would be creamed.

Good that Dhoni do not play. But we dont have a better keeper for now other than Karthik. both Dhoni and Karthik are pathetic behind stumps and they dance well before the stumps in the name of FOOTWORK.
we should give captaincy in kohli's hand as he has done successfully in under-19, and he will be like GreameSmith of south Africa.Since right now board is obessed with south Africans...main couch than bowling and fielding couch South African only...
Re: Kohli should captain this time...
by babran on Jan 17, 2010 08:57 AM
He is at the beginning of his career.Don't spoil him like yuvraj.Let him play for more years and the captaincy will be given based on his performance.Long time to go.I am sure sehwag won't get more runs in this test series like before.

We keep on following other teams and do not think of our own. Like Graeme Smith we should give captaincy to Virat Kohli...(who spits unnecessarily bad words when he wins world cup..dont know why) and we give overconfident statements without winning much of the matches yet like Ausssies do. Does Indian Team and management ever have original thinking?
dravid, laxman are still playing for test? give me break. sachin for record. god sake give chance to new players. no point in playing with old for these kind of test.
typical selector, they will give youngest a chance agaist strong team in oversea condition. let them built confidents agaist weak team and in home condition

if sachin/dravid withdraw from team then india will lose even to bangladesh in tests... it is like this that your parents are still working to support you while you are wasting your time making stupid comments here...

Dravid, Laxman and Tendulkar are the only batsmen left worthy of calling true test players. Watch them while its good. You will not see their likes for ages to come. This is not T20 or Onday cricket. You have to be a MAN to play Test cricket. Rather than talk you watch. Also I feel the youngsters should try and learn while they are still around.

Dont predict future randhir. People said that about gavaskar as well.

I am missing kumble , he would have added some more wickets in his record with bangladeshi's in sub-continent pitch.
Re: dravid, laxman are still playing for test?
by Padmanabhan Venkataramani on Jan 17, 2010 09:13 AM
Atleast such cases like Laxman should be dropped from the team for the sake of youngsters...when will they get a chance?
Re: kohli should play...
by Sunil Vaidya on Jan 16, 2010 10:11 PM
you seem to be a very difficult man to please. if you were made selector you would drop even mcgrath- 2 tests 5 wickets against bangladesh and Lee 4 tests 8 wickets against bangladesh
