The Unsung Hero of the series. All the media are eager for Sachin's century of centuries. we are concerned about records and rewards and not the result. Dravid has always proved that he is a team man. Sachin is great but not equal to Dravid or for that matter to VVS

@ ramachandran..unsung hero..why? had sachin scored 3 centuries in such loss, people like u would have said..useless century since India lost..why won't be applied to Dravid's century now? why he will be considered as hero? India lost all these matches when dravid scored these 3 centuries..grow up..centuries r centuries..people like sachin and dravid do not play for personal record
appropriate result. After a long time cricket lovers have witnessed cricket matches without any fixing or deliberate under performance. Unfortunately for Indian fans the result has gone other way. I pray Allah to give moral strength to all other cricket playing nations so that we always see the better cricket team winning. Indian cricket followers comprise of a huge audience and advertisers as well as BCCI cash on the same, by projecting the Indian cricketers as HERO and WORLD CHAMPS! Not that World champs can not lose, but there has to be some difference between a minnow and a so called World Champ.

if some one says India won the world cup because it was fixed then it is all bullshit. India won because they played at home grounds and in front of home support. also India had better team in One day compare to test team. also this test team did not have full strength. without zaheer khan Indian attack is very weak. also Sehwag was not fully fit gambhir kept on injury all the time. so there were few cause but overhaul England has much better team especially their bowling side is far superior then our bowling attack.

post lunch inning was fixed. ind didnt lose a single wkt in first session n suddenly colapsed within 1 hour after lunch. ind players got instructions during lunch to lose the match.
BCCI and "cricket", R.I.P. For the greater good of India. We can do without this gallery of rascals and the nation will be better of without cricket. Jaganniwas Iyer
1) Dhoni (lacks talent for test cricket) 2) Raina (lacks talent for test cricket) 3) Harbhajan (past his prime) 4) VVS Laxman (past his prime) 5) Sreesanth (attitude problem) 6) Sehwag ( way too inconsistent) 7) RP Singh (unfit to be even called a cricketer)
Replace them with: 1) Parthiv Patel 2) Cheteshwar Pujara 3) Ravichandran Ashwin 4) Rohit Sharma 5) Varun Aaron 6) Manoj Tiwary 7) Umesh Yadav or Jaydev Unadkat or Pankaj Singh

Mumbai has won 3 out of 5 Ranjis.
Mumbai's highest averaging batsman is Rahane with 67 and 17 hundreds(ahead of the "Sharma") and bowler of note is Dhawal Kulkarni who is missing from list.

i remember dhawal kulkarni being picked for one of the test series played in india. (i do not remember exactly which one). he turned out to be a very ordinary bowler... even in IPL's he wasn't that successful and was in the benches in the final stages of MI games. success in domestic cricket does not necessarily translate to success in international games. its a different cup of team. Ajit Agarkar is a glaring example..... Anyways why should u be happy with 4-0 drubbing of India, if some marathi players r not chosen????????????? That shows ur narrow mindedness and ur culture... i doubt if u r an indian...

i have never said Raina is a good player. In fact he should have been replaced right after the WI series.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Players 2b dropped...
by Aryan on Aug 22, 2011 10:17 PM
wrt Dhawal kulkarni maybe I am wrong. if he has not played then he should be given chances against WI in the home series to see how he performs..

We lost the series because of toothless bowling. You can not allow the oppositon to score 500, 600 runs at will every time and hope to win matches.

True, but some good batting could have saved matches. The batting was quite pathetic as well.
