Highly immaturish comments on the part of Officiating Captain of Indian Test Eleven about Bangladesh Test Eleven. In my view BD Eleven is very ambitious, committed and offering great competition to any test team, including Indian test eleven. Sehwag should have avoided making such over confident comments.

actually the problem with sehvag is that he thinks that he can play as per his wish and all the other opponents are fool who would let him do it.just have a look at his carrier he always got out when he was well set.that's the indication of overconfidence.
India is 80 for 3 by this ordinary side.Common grow up sehwag and don't say anything with overconfidence.Tumne kya ukhad liya.u just played a cameo inning and that's it.
Naked truth is not acceptable in India.After all,India has nothing but cricket while aussies and SA's are leaders in many other sports.So India with its 1 billion has to have something to be proud about.Hence the Indian cricket team is overhyped.Beggars cannot be choosers.
The ICC (Idiotic Crazy Council) are purely responsible for these meaningless contests. With due respect to Bangladesh, I don't think the Bangladeshis deserve to play ANY of the top 3 test nations in the world. Guess what th Bangladeshi captain said once Sehwag left the room: "I don't think India are the No. 1. SA and AUS are much better than them." Does Sehwag even require such insults from a Bangladeshi player whose cricketing skills are on par with an Indian domestic cricketer ? think about it before criticizing Sehwag for stating the obvious. Oh to hell with sportsmanship and other butter talk. Do the Aussies ever care about that side of pro sport ?!

No doubt, Indian team is far better than Bangladeshi team and I'm supporter of this team since my childhood, but what's the meaning of Good Cricket to Sehwag? - just to perform well! I don't think so. Dear Jay, if you are talking about skill, go and look at the ICC player's ranking - you'll find Bangladeshi captain's name in top 10 bowlers and top 5 all-rounders list. What I want to say is, teams should have good understanding between them, they should respect each other regardless of their quality of skills. Then the game will have more entertainment,fun,charming.

And obviously Sewag will score triple centuries in both tests because the opposition is so ordinary.. Sehwag is also going to rest Tendul and Dravid because opposition is so ordinary..

Even when India have won many series, folks will continue to find fault with their performance. Such is the fate of Indian cricket - the eternaly dissatisfied Indian fan.
'Call it over-confidence or just stating a plain fact'. It is amazing that the jounalist didn't put fullstop after the word over-confidence. Indians dont have the freedom to 'state a plain fact'. I live outside India and everybody asks me this question.. why do you Indians say 'Yes' when u mean 'No'. People in developed countries wont lie as it is a matter of self esteem for them.
Re: fact!
by on on Jan 17, 2010 03:42 AM
wow.. You have very sorry experience, go back to India..
There is no such thing as PLAIN FACT in cricket. The same Bnagladesh thrown India out of the World Cup. They were Ordinary One day team at that time as well..
This is not about "Staing Plain Fact', but respeting opponent, letting your performance do talking, sportsmanship etc. etc.

Ohh please.. Where do you live-in Vetican? I am living in US for 21 yrs now and let me tell you the men talks about christianity all day long and go to church every Sunday, but lie from his teeth..
I rather say India has more Gandhiwadi audience then in Developed countries..
Re: Re: fact!

when you India has more Gandhiwadi and is better than the rest of the world why are you staying in the USA for all these years. Why dont you came back to India then??

by Lotiya Pathan on Jan 17, 2010 08:19 PM
I just can't pass this opportunity to make one at that Faux Intellectual bunch here who is so proud that Sehwag made such blunt comment denouncing Bangladesh cricket team.
One goof was justifying by saying how he lives outside of India and he encounters criticism from F0reigners that he doesn't have bo11s to say truth, and then he claims all Indians are like him and that he is proud Sehwag said the truth.. And there were three others supporting him saying "Yes, You're right-Sehwag made us all India proud by saying that.." oh well..
There we go Morons, one day later India is at 213-8 against the Ordinary Side..

I also live outide of US and I haven't heard such blunt statements yet. One doesn't have to live outside of India to figure what's wrong and what's right. The Australian team, who're known for their big mouth, haven't even issued such statements ever before.
The point is, why make such statements and creat unncessory anamocity? Why not go out and defeat them comprehensively and prove your point?
May be we Indian speaks louder then our actions.. not a winning way for sure
We can bowl them out below 100 whenever we want, we can score 700 plus if we desire, Viru, Gambhir and Tendulkar can score 300 plus if they want. Why do we play these wretched Bangladeshis? They never won anything against us ever except that WC incident and they never ever will. Why do we play them and waste our time? We should only play Australia, England and SouthAfrica.
Well veeru's education and grooming are mirrored in his abrasive statement.Humility and grace are hallmarks of world beaters and champions. Veeru also vindicated Ian Chapel' well considered, dispassionate views. How we wish they had given a good display in the tri-series final vs. Lanka.When yu are a guest yu should be courteous to yur hosts with out being submissive.He simply followed Aussy behaviour without being equal to them. Ian was dead right -yu need two high quality bowlers aided by top class fielding.

Sorry if i hurt any one. i didnot mean any denigration for a champion like veeru - but he should be more diplomatic and choosy in his comments.
Re: Re: Re: Veeru - poor diplomat
by rishi on Jan 16, 2010 11:54 PM
Dude, he is a cricketer not a politician, no need for him to be diplomatic n all he has the guts to hit the first ball of day 1 to the fence, so wats worng in him speaking his mind
Re: Re: Veeru - poor diplomat

Hey Man, If he is India's top batsmen that doesn't mean he has licence to say anything to anybody.
Once India were like Bangladesh, and if Shewag can refer the history of Cricket. India become the No.1. rank just Dec 09 and they not even complete one year to maintain the rank. Just wait and see how this Shewag statement is true. What Ian Cahppel has said it was fact and nobody will accept the fact. Shewag is a fluke batsman and he feel he is next ro Bradmand and Tendulkar. finally he shown is true color. Take this sport on sportman spirit. Don't under estimate the small team.
Re: Sehwag lost his mental

Bangladesh, a team that has won 3 out of 63 matches it has played, lost 52 of them. the 3 matches it has won are 1 against Zinbabwe and 2 against the 2nd string West Indian side. Leave aside winning, Bangladesh is a team that has struggled to draw a test match also. So, the statement that Bangladesh is an ordinary team is actually wrong, it should have been that Bangladesh is a very bad team. ;) It can happen that Bangladesh may defeat India, but it wud not change tha fact that they are a bad test team.
Re: Sehwag lost his mental
by rishi on Jan 16, 2010 11:18 PM
Its pity that u call shewag a fluke batsman, for the record he averages above 50 in test matches with a strike rate above 80, wow that has to be a hugeeeeee fluke he he he :)
I guess bangladesh team would die to have such a fluke :).
Re: Re: Sehwag lost his mental
by Rigved Kulkarni on Jan 16, 2010 11:38 PM
and if viru is fluke, we wud love him to be fluke if he is scoring like this and winning matches... viru's statement is as real and pure as he himself is. he knows only one thing and that is to hit the opposition whenever and wherever possible. i m confident that we wud win 2-0.
