sachin i am fan of since my college days i used to bunk my ruparel college lectures to watch sachin play at shivaji park 1988-89 sachin is fearless warrier like archer arjun who can do mirracles like 241 not out in 2003 in tour of australia in sydney test in which sachin did not hit any six only 4s it is our good luck that sachin is born in india & we must pray him next to Lord Sidhdhivinayak in Cricket. Lord Ganapati will keep sachin away from negative toughts as well as negative shots like simple catch he gave on score of 4 in WC2003 final lord ganapati is lord of art & politics cricket is an art so Ganesh will give sachin to maintain good health as well as good form. sachin must stay away from any risk to keep his power for WC2011 hence i pray lord ganesh for sachin 2 play only square cuts glance type of shots which requires minimum power but result maximum. sachin & dravid are only 2 players who can play copy book cricket like KING Ranjit singhji Sachin & Rahul are kings of Cricket so if they decide they can score 100 with 25 bundaries of only square cuts like Gundappa Vishwanath & Gavaskar in their best form got maximum runs with minimum efforts against all fast bowlers like jeff thomson, marshal, holding, hadlie only we have to be alert from England due to niel foster type anderson, swan, brad niel foster yorker got gavaskar out1987WC so again all sachin crazy fans as w
I think on the basis of the crowd the next test match should be awarded. If some ground authority is unable is fill the ground they should not be allowed to host matches. Cricket is for spectators and not for advertisers and sponsors.

Eden Garden attract 900000 maximum plus neighburing building & trees so more than 1 lakhs viewers actually watch sachin play so i surprise why mad ICC/BCCI do not arrange test match at Eden Garden Kolkatta of DADA
Am leaving this discussion for today. see u all tomorrow. Goodnight and sweet dreams. take care, all the best. Hopefully, we will get them all out below 350 or even lesser and then sehwag will give us a rollicking start once again and bats them out of the contest. We need to be careful since an inform laxman is missing. A new comer pujara and a recent inclusion in raina and an out of form dhoni etc makes me feel that our middle order is a little vulnerable. lets hope for the best and pray that sehwag helps us overcome those vulnerabilities by giving us a great start with vijay.

habhajan got first maiden 100 cngractulatins toothless bhajji ho gayi dhajji. Rahul Dravid like sachin can pay for school children tickets like Kanpur & Ahmadabad so that some chairs get cleaning as ass of some students?
north is looking good, paine is in good form, if they score half-centuries and johnson to bat..i feel 400 . Indian bowlers didn't bowl well today. Field placing was also bad. seamers are bowling wicket to wicket, but outside off/leg stump area is the one that troubles the batsmen, like the one Hussey chased. that's the perfect line for test.

more than 3 runs per over on day 1 is a healthy score, this bangalore pitch has lot of assistance for bowlers,that's why indians hardly win a match here. really interesting to see how indians gonna bat on this pitch.

expect ponting to use clarke on day 3, man with low in confidence with bat can deliver with ball, like MS tried raina.
Re: Re: Re: Indians are struggling
by Rajan S on Oct 09, 2010 11:59 PM
Whoever is used by ponting, it does not matter if indians doesn't commit any foolishness tomorrow. I believe the aussie bowling is brittle, but they can make it up with their fielding and discipline bowling
Re: Re: Re: Re: Indians are struggling

If we play the first 20 overs carefully,Aussie bowlers can not trouble us.

sreesanth should try more of wide of crease deliveries make an angle to left hand north with mid-off/on extra cover, gully protection.
Re: Re: Indians are struggling
by rdanlal on Oct 09, 2010 11:58 PM
how about batsman like katich who walks across before ball is released, see the wicket of clarke? spin wizards like warne, murali's wicket can teach you about what i'm talking about
Re: Re: Re: Indians are struggling
by Rajan S on Oct 10, 2010 12:07 AM
There are more chances for a batsmen to get out, if he tries to play a straight ball to the legside. That's what we say playing across the line. But bowling outside the legstump will never trouble any batsmen unless he flicks it to a fielder or nicks it to wicket keeeper. But the lbw and bowled is out of the equation then. U would have meant abt the straight ball, which the batsmen trying to play across it, will get out
Re: Re: Re: Re: Indians are struggling
by rdanlal on Oct 10, 2010 12:21 AM
well what you are talking is cross-bat shot which was effectively used by shane watson today. trouble is relative to batsmen. you know how really it frustrates if you miss out balls bowled at your legs, that's the area people will go for a blind shot. It can be as easy to overtake a lorry and as difficult to auto, test is the form you can try out many, in ODI you will be penalized as wide.

i just saw one of ur question asking me whether i hav come to mumbai.. Yes once in 1996, i think. i have been to mumbai with family using father's ltc money. my cousins were there in andheri and nallasopara. I used to wonder how mumbai is working. Its was may be 20 times as big as cochin even those times. How abt nallasopara? How is that area now? Do u know?
Re: Re: Re: Re: @Rajan S

How do u get in to electric trains there? In those times, electric train i guess, was only there. i used to fear especially when travelling with my family,when the train arrives the station. Bcoz it was a task for us to get into it fast. But the mumbaikars were easily doing that..

Yes but the last time when i gone there this june, some major pipe work was going on there. So the udagamandalam bus stand are were filled with mud and clay. But everything else is a really a treat to watch. I have gone there some 4 or 5 times. Its a really great place to tour. the climate, everything is just fantastic

350 was my tgt earlier. Anything above that is not good. And usually, tail enders tend to wag against india as was in the case in the first innings of the last match. I hope that won't happen tomorrow
