IPL

Why dont anybody blames IPL. It is root cause of all problems.See the immediate matches after ipl in last 3-4 years and u will see that india has struggled immediately after ipl.If this year ipl had not been after world cup,we may not have won world cup.See the last 20-20 world cup,we lost in early round because it was immediately after IPL.It was different this year as IPL was after world cup.If IPl had been before world cup,we have definitely not won world cup.Nobody critisizes IPl because everybody makes money like gavaskar ,shastri, other commentators,all cricketers except kapil dev who recently critisized ipl.Common man 14 matches for every team,give a break.Also our indian public is so fool that it dances to the fours and sixes although they dont know which team they want to support like punjab or delhi.So public, hate IPl and dont watch it and u will see it will vanish some years after.

Yes the coming T20 IPL match.. you are correct. I fully agree with you.

They pay crores in IPL. They pay nothing in Tests.

Forget about him
by Jasad Dusty on Aug 04, 2011 02:28 PM

He is useless, write him off for ever and ever and don't even look at him. He has no style and no character.

Sourav, we miss u.....
by letsgo on Aug 04, 2011 02:07 PM

Dhoni's success was a result of Sourav's good work. Just look at the players who are instrumental for making India as No.1 TEST & WC ODI Champion and u'll get the answer. Barring Sachin, Rahuk & Laxman who all come either before Sourav or alongwith him, all key players like Shewag, Yuvraj, Harbhajan or Zahir Khan were spotted and picked up by Sourav. Sourav injected the fighting , charged-up spirit into the squad. And he himself was a great fighter at No.6 in spite of his obvious technical flaws.He got the respect from his team. It was improper to force his to resign when he was in goos form ( scored 85 in his penaltimate innigs vs Aussies). Now we've no good batsman at No.6 and more importantly, we lose an inspirational captain.

BCCI should ask......
by Ajay Dev Singh on Aug 04, 2011 11:01 AM  | Hide replies

.....Sharad Pawar to fix this series. He can carry suitcase full of Pound/Euros or else ask all test playing nation to play India in India. Kyon apni chaddi utravayein London ki sadakon par. Indian team is ill prepared than Zimbawe team. We can’t learn even when Graham Gooch was spending time with Ian Bell during 2nd test match and sharing tips to improve the batting stance. Whereas, jokers like Gavaskar, Shastri was farting and smelling in studios. In their priome, these two jokers hardly won 10 tests for India, become saint now. Sir Gavaskar, Sir Shastri. :) . Its terrible to listen their nursery rhyme commentary. Indian team requires bookies like Pawar to fix the results and Mali curator to uproot the grasses from England pitches.

India should try two specialist pacer and two specialist spinner.
by D S on Aug 04, 2011 10:39 AM

India should try two pacer and two spinner.
third pacer being all-rounder swinger and batsmen.


Since England gets into T20 at will at anytime during the test, India needs to have two spinner to check and those spinner to put brakes being Pragyan Ojha and Rahul.

Dhoni can practice and be a swinger of ball as well someday like Yuvi practiced to be a spinner.


two pacers being zaheer and whoever is the best.

try 3 rd pacer that is an allrounder like Irfan pathan.

dhoni should not have ignored Akram advise to make harbhajan sit. He should fall on Akram feet and listen carefully even if videshi with strategic goals are bribing Pakistan cricket board not for charity but to keep Asians separated.

Rohit, i can partially agree with what u say. But think logically. when u r #1 team, quality stuff is expected of you, not what this silly dhoni fella says..... It is a great achievement to be #1 in any format (specially tests). But u need to carry on the momentum right? thats the way Aussies, Sri Lanka & England work.
The performance of our team in these 2 matches were on par with zimbabwe (only tatenda taibu used to score major runs, in this case Dravid....). Losing is not a big problem against a good opposition, but struggling for a draw in West Indies and losing so badly in these 2 tests, any Indian fan will get pissed off. On top of it, MSD says heavy schedule cramped India's progress. It was only Dravid, Lax & MSD who played in WI, rest was a different team altogether. Dravid continued his good work, what is wrong with MSD? And playing 1~1.5 months of IPL was not a heavy schedule for him, playing 2 test matches is strenuous! He is giving explanations like a kid!

po, i totaly agree with rohit, we are a fickle minded people, in 2 matches we hv ground him, so what if he has lost 2 matches, pls gv credit to the other team too, tell me which man can perform consistently there will be times when he can be a little below par, so we must hv faith in the guy, after all he is one of the best capt in the world. he needs the fan support, not , like what we do one day on the head next day kick him on the ground., our team will perform and you will see the difference. we will be a better team than eng.

umesh, what u r saying is right. but just see how aussies, england (from some days) and south africa play. Each time, Dhoni has excuses saying "batsmen failed us", "bowlers failed to click", "we fell 20 runs short", etc. This time, it was a sillier excuse of "heavy schedule". Even if u lose, u should give a fight. If Dhoni/Sachin/Lax/Raina failed, it is not a big issue. But when the whole team (except dravid) fails so badly, how can the team stay in #1 position? If we were not #1, i am sure so many comments (including mine) wouldnt have arised.

again with new selection, pragyan is good.
kohli should bail out for his good.
Let rohit be under radar like Dhawan was during the last series.

Kohli should say to the selectors, it is his time to focus on 1 day and T20.
Let players like Rohit come under the radar like Dhawan was in WI tour. And even Mukund was under the radar.

thank you akram for the positive advise that india ignored
by D S on Aug 04, 2011 10:00 AM

Akram saved india the last match by advising harbhajan to be rested BUT DHONI AND SELECTORS IGNORED IT.

Now, again, the clever Angrez ICC responded by bribing PCB with $15 million to buy out Assad raut and quieten Akram. Assad has been nice to Angrez team and not too harsh on them.

videshi were the one that made Pakistan happen as a nation by making brokers like Jinnah, Nehru, gandhi, etc whom the called true desis. OHH well.
