Editor sir, don't blame Gayle, to be frank it is the IPL which is blocking india's goal. players are fed up that they banned after IPL parties here after.

It is shameful to see body language of Indian player was so lazy after IPL's glory.
They all felt so tierd they dont have stemina to play against Physically and Mentally feet TEAM.
Above all there are so many IDIOTS are there in Team selection too..We should only say that.....It happens only in INDIA>

I think India should play in India only, this year it is shortpitch, next year it will be yorkers. If they practice both they might forget spin, so they should play in India and keep winning, we will be happy, they will be happy, win win situation for both.

short stuff
by Jagan on May 10, 2010 05:21 PM

We stood exposed to short balls, which kept bomabarding us 1-2 an over and we had no clue how to face it. It's become our weakness of late & our opposition is capitalising on it. The sooner we get around it the better. Wake up Kirsten

Pathetic
by krish jaiswal on May 10, 2010 04:56 PM

The team selection was a disaster and the captain was just trying to prove it...On pitches like these we had M Vijay (inexperienced, untested), Suresh Raina (clearly unable to play short balls - last world cup), Yusuf Pathan and Jadeja (Not sure if they are batsmen or bowlers - bad at both), Recently injured Yuvraj, Zaheer, Gambhir and inexperienced RC Bowler. What cud these guys do...I am glad they won against SA...

fault is with selectors only
by manjinder saini on May 10, 2010 04:17 PM

If selectors can't choose team after IPL then what u expect from these idiots
Every body was knowing that Gambhir, yuvraj are out of form--they must have been rested.
Why the hell Pyush chawla was picked & on top of that Jadeja?
Why Uthappa was not taken ?--no body knows

Even after IPL our selectors were giving a chance to our team to go & win over Afganistan only & come back proudly that we have boosted moral by playing with them-- those players whose names even we don't know.
Srikant was saying after selection that this is the best team they could choose.

INDIA'S LOSS TO AUSTRALIA & WEST INDIES
by Vijay Shetty on May 10, 2010 02:59 PM  | Hide replies

BOTH THE MATCHES LOST DUE TO WRONG DECISION TO FIELD FIRST AFTER WINNING THE TOSS.
IN 20x20 FORMAT ONE SHOULD ALWAYS BAT FIRST, PUT UP A DESCENT SCORE AND PUT PRESSURE ON OPPONENT. WHEN ANY BODY BATS SECOND WITH A SCORE OF ABOVE 150 IN THIS FORMAT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO CHASE.

ONE MORE THING IS THAT WE SHOULD DEPEND OR CAPITALISE ON OUR STRENGTH NOT ON OPPONENTS WEAKNESS.

Bad Decision and Selection
by Kripa Yadav on May 10, 2010 01:34 PM  | Hide replies

Why we not choose the bating first after wining the toss on the same pitch. And why we not select Saurabh tiwari after a good performance in the IPL instead of Murli Vijay.
