Bring in RP Singh
by sudhir bhargava on Aug 04, 2011 01:20 PM  | Hide replies

If zaheer is not fit for the third Test fly in RP Singh.He was very effective in English conditions on the last tour of England and we need a left arm swing bowler to confront five southpaws in the English team. Mishra should be brought in to exploit the traditonal weakness of the English batsmen against legspin.

I think they are substituting yuvraj(injured) and bhajji with kohli and ohja..NOT a bad substitution..hope bhoth ojha and kohli will fire..our last hope..

Great idea!
Bring him in 2011 because he did well in 2007!
RP Singh has himself to blame for not being selected in Indian Team. Dhoni was always willing to back him.

Will India win a Test in this series?
by Kanchan Mandal on Aug 04, 2011 01:19 PM

Yes India has a chance to win, most probably last Test after England make it 3-0 and rest some big boys.When expectations and tension are off, then Tendulkar will come blazing with his gun, we will all go head over heel for the century of century, write loads of praises and hero worship in papers. Dhoni will also score run, if Lady luck smiles,snd count of Test won overseas will go up. We will all be happy and content and pose for Ads. If by losing your pants off doesnt affect your bank statement who cares?

This article is nothing but crap and i suspect is being published to force the Inidans to watch the reminder of this series.Let us read this statement."there is no single pacer to find fault with"is this a joke or a cruelly biased statement.In Eng second innings Indiain seamers seemed like trundlers and the pitch looked like a road until Jimmy.Braoad and Tremlet started to bowl.THere is a gulf between these 2 bowling line ups.and "its conveniently forgotten that Swann is struggling"Swann has been x times better than Bhajji and although he hasnt taken wickets he has tied one end down often (precisely what Indian bowlers cant do resulting in Eng scoring at T20 rate after 80 overs or so and India losing by huge margin.And consider this statement"you break this team now and you will pay the price in Australia" what more price shall we be made to pay...isnt this the worst..can this team go lower..OMG..and i belive this cricketer turned commentator is Ravi Shastri..now the most imp part "INIDA DID NOT REACH NO:1 RANK DUE TO DHONI'S CAPTAINCY" it wa due to the efforst of batting stlwarts like Laxman and DRavid and at times Sehwag and Sachin and in bowling with the help of Zak..

Why not a Leg Spinner ?
by ashis on Aug 04, 2011 01:14 PM

I don't know whether India could be able to retain its first place in Test !! But the way Indians are batting, boaling and fielding appear not like the No. 1 team. Now when Yuvi and Bhajji are going back, why a leg-spinner is not being sent ? The English are not well to play such a ball. It may cause them trouble if friendly pitch is available. Moreover Dhoni has to come out with more responsibility not only with the keeping gloves but also with the bat. Your views please.

Even if England drops Dravid the number of times you asked for, and even if he scores 300 plus, do you still think THIS Indian team will win? :)

Very true, when Dravid was playing well in first innings there was no partners,Broad got hatric including Indian captain's wicket.Media is over hyping about Sachin's 100th Century.That is because he wasn't able to reach to 100.

See the performance of Dhoni.Are you saying to drop Dravid.Dhoni should have sent some nightwatchman when early lose of wickets.Or he could have promoted himself.Predictions says that India is going to lose all the matches.
