apart from that, give yousuf pathan a decent chance. when he comes to bat, india are already in trouble and expect yusuf to do a miracle. send hoim as an opener or 1 or 2 down and give him chance to settle and express himself. VIJAY AND JADEJA SHOULD BE BANNED. ALSO PLAY PIYUSH CHAWLA. my team
1) gambhir 2) uthappa 3) raina 4) rohit 5) yuvi 6) dhoni 7) yusuf 8) bhajji 9) zaheer 10) piyush/vinay 11) nehra. ONLY THEN WE HAVE A CHANC ETO ENTER SEMIS AND WIN WORDCUP.
FAKE INJURY FOR PATHETIC VIJAY AND EXCHANGE HIM WITH UTHHAPA. ARE THE BRAINLESS SELECTORS LISTENING?
The BCCI had the BALLS to bring in half clad white cheerleaders to shake their booties in front of Indian crowds during the IPL. Now why the f**k wouldn't the same BCCI have the BALLS to produce FAST and BOUNCY pitches across India for our young players ???? where the hell is all the money going ? I don't see India becoming world no.1 in all 3 forms of the game unless they play on fast, bouncy tracks like South Africa and Australia. Geographically, South Africa and India share similar soil types. This has been proven. Indians need to bite their egos and do something before India becomes the laughing stock of world cricket.

Couldn't agree more. India has becoming a laughing stock after that fiasco in WI. All commentators were.. well...speechless after a total failure of India batsmen to short pitched ball and pace. They have already counted out India for the cup. India has made this impression very clear that they can't handle quality pace bowlers.

Boss i amused when people talk of preparing fast pitches to help our batsmen cope with short pitchjed stuff. But when there are no realy `fast' bowlers in domestic curcuit, how would these guys get practice against such stuff? We need to scout for fast bowlers on a war footing with former cricketers taking the lead. If you read the interviews of former cricketers, all of them talk more about batting than the fast bowling talent which is the real problem. Again, merely preparing fast pitches would not automatically lead to guys bowling fast. What is needed is a fierce ambition and will to bowl fast along with development of proper physique.

Don't agree with you dude. If fast fastpitches are made then performance of fast bowlers will come up and they will get encouragements. Its only because of slow flat pitches that the fast bowlers get such bashing. This discourages people. Thats why nobody wants to be a fast bowlers. They only want to bat. When such pitches will be made we will see a lot of good fast bowlers emerging.

Stupppid stop saying out ur nonsense... sachin... sachin.. the mumbaikar... just playing ... 500 odis and mounting score.... this fuckkking all can do. give yusuf and irfan fair chances... they can prove.
I think we are just talking too much after 1 loss...
India has the best team with stars like Yousuf Pathan... He is a match winner... He is much better than Sachin tendulkar,, However should get the same number of chance Sachin and Saurav got....
He should bat at 4 ahead of Yuvi and Dhoni...
Ravindra Jadeja should be kicked out not only from Team india... however from Gully Cricket as well...

yes. yusuf has not been given so far fair chances ...by Dhoni both in ODIs and T20s.. He always comes in at 5 or 6
