the first time india beat west indies in their own groun was at a time when their prized fast bowling attack was at lowest ebb. same case with our wins over several other test playing nations. we have not produced bowlers bowling in the range 145-150 Km or more consistently. our batsmen are not suffiiciently exposed to such game at local, collegiate, leading club, ranji trophy, or at duleep trophy level. that remains the fact. our victories were mostly when the grounds were favourable to spin or the opponents pace attack sufferred debth or made unenforced errors.. we should ponder over it.
dada stop commenting about batting . Especially short pitch bowling . He dropped out of a test match against aussies in india bcos of bouncy track in nagpur . give us a break and go way and plan for better performance in IPL

Name one Indian Batsmen except Jimmy Amarnath (if u know him)who is comfortable against short ball. In IPL I think his performance is not so poor, really is it, he is among top 5/6 batsmen, took some stunning catches, but his captaincy got wrong.
One more thing I want to say Ganguly is one of the players w/o whome u can't write Indian Cricket History, So I think litttle respect he deserves.
Dada don’t taln nonsense it’s the captian dhobi who let India down.Sticjking to the same team and trying to prove that he was right cost India. Dhobi is becoming like lalit modi an arrogant and over hyped guy.
Its all common in the betting circle to lose in the begining so the gamblers bet on the opposite side and to win the last matches to make it to the semis-finals. Pakis did the same, Indian team will do the same will be in the semi-finals, dont worry. The so called panters know very well what is going on, but a risky statergy. Provided aussie win the match against WI, which they sure will.
