raina is gud batsman no dbt, but that day vs SA, had they used STEYN properly against raina, he wudn't have scorred century, he was lucky to see STEYN taken bak from attack, that was wrong move by G.Smith.

You can't say like that. Initially he is more careful so he would have survived Dale Styen. It's not a bad idea to keep Dale back considering India's Power packed lower Middle order.
But Eion Morgan started to play more matured Innings in his very Short career. I think in one or two year Eion Morgan will be the best Young Batsman around the world.

watching morgans reverse switch hit is nice. he plays those shots so confidently and quickly that too middling the bat. he has something in him.

Yes. He is a amazing player to watch out. He is very young but very calm under pressure and facing his Innings very properly. his pick up Shots are awesome and his innovative shots are simply Superb. I hope he will Play like this for a long time.

May be you are right. Umar Akmal also started his career very brightly like any other Pakistani Batsman but he is fading away quickly. Just one series in NZ everyone started to compare him with Sachin from the Pakistani side now he is side lined already.
But S Raina also have a good talent and Luck and his Come back to Indian team is a great come back and his Stats are awesome.

Bro, its a team work , what happen to your cricket sense, do you only know bashing. I am not bengali but can say ganguly is GOD when offside shot are in scene
no discussion on cricket is complete without ganguly?. Why biased people always try to demean saurav in order to elevate others? Why some people try to prove someone legend saying that he is better tha n ganguly?
Because saurav is the greatest..and people are emvious of his power and position. Sad losers never learn and themselves prove that saurav is a legend.

Wasim actullay rared Saurav (may be beacuase of KKR assignment) and did not demean him. He says Raina will take time to become at par with saurav the bengal cat (tiger!) poor English u/s.

A hello ganguly was a legend, is a legend & will remain legend OK. He is one of the most successful captain of India. he is the one who bought india up from difficult position. so stop doing all this things.
Akram is comparing Raina with Ganguli. Whom I Think was never Great. Look his stat He scored againt minnows team & dead pitches.He always shown He is aggressive & but he has no temperament like Greatest Dhoni & Raina Akram is saying Ganguli is Great because Uska roji roti abhi KKR se chal raha hai
Re: Ganguli was never Great
by Sameer joseph on May 05, 2010 10:55 AM
70% of ganguli's runs hav come against zimbabwe,bangladesh i never saw him scorring century against SA,AUSTRALIA
Re: Ganguli was never Great
by Rajaram on May 05, 2010 10:39 AM
mr.sharma when saurav was playing against minnows was the rest of the indian team playing austarlia and pakistan? why dint they score.Further saurav's greatness is not dependent on certificate of fools like you
Raina can hit the ball very well and keep his strike rate more than 150, wher as ganguli can hit only offside balls and strike rate is poor, rarely it crosses 100.
