Kohli abuses the umpire at leat 3 times before walking off after he was dead plumb lbw. Raina stands and shows his bat after given out. Another one stands for a few minutes after getting his stumps uprooted. If all this was done by any non Indian player there would be lot of angry words said by indian media public etc. Where is that "Holier than Christ" Sunny Gavaskar ? He is sleeping or turning a blind eye when it comes to indians? Double standards!!!!

Nair, Go around and look at the behaviour of players from certain other countries. If some one from India does it, it burns your rear. And if some Aussie or English player do it then it's all cool for goof like you..

The same question has to be raised to English/Aussie/South African commentators when their players do such stuff.

Why are u so anti Indian, we can also do such things if other teams can do, why upset about it?

Every time mant critics talk about retirement of Tendulkar, Laxman and Dravid despite of their huge sucess. But see regular failure failure of Sehvag. Why these critics are not uttering about retirement of Sehvag ? Every time reckless approach while batting.

not only sehwag but also gambhir also failed...their approach is casual, both must be dropped from the australian tour..their place should be given to new comers....
This is one time i prayed for an opponed team winning. I feel pity for Sammy who is leading the WI team during this tough times. He always has good words to say however badly the team loses.
It was not very difficult to win this match..anyways good innings from Rohit,ashwin...Gauti,Viru...are wasting good practise before Aus tour..Suresh..Such an energetic, talent player is kinda walking into Yuvraj's shooes...His only drawback is he is impetuous at times..Rohit is almost taking No 6 position from Suresh and Virat..I feel for yosuf but having yusuf is like having 2 Virus in team..Ind team can afford only one..

not only he is a useless captain.the way he handled the bowlers even kohli might have done much better.must be sent packing...
Rohit always had the rare talent of seeing the ball early. This made him play his strokes unhurriedly. We saw him in Australia and all the critics here were effusive in their praise. IPL wealth and glamour distracted him and he became overweight and unfit. Dropping him from the team was the best thing to have happened. He got the shock of his life and started to train seriously.He looks lean and hungry these days and has been scoring consistently. While Virat Kohli has been scoring runs, he does not appear comfortable against the fast rising ball and will certainly be tested in Australia. Sharma certainly has the right credentials to succeed in Australia as he plays pace comfortably. He seems to be really classy. Hope he does well on this tour.
To allow 73 runs being scored in the last five overs only shows the lack of imagination from the captain. How is it he did not bowl Vinay Kumar for his full quota of 10 overs? The three turning points in Indian innings were Gambhir not playing a stroke, run out of Jadeja and Raina's failure.

Result was known otherwise the tickets for other two ODI's would not have been sold out. It is possible that windis will win the next one also and then india will seal series in the last ODI.
Sehwag, Gambhir and Raina are all expecting to be picked each time on the basis of their reputations. They just do not seem to be concentrating on the task at hand. It is time the selectors talked some sense into them

Chatter, I agree with you. Gambhir's body language tells he is harbouring some sort of grudge against the team or management. Sehwag also seems to have some sort of a balloon in his head.I find something uncharacteristic in Raina. May be the trio are upto something sinister?

Maybe they are pissssseeeedd off that Dhoni walks away with the credit when they win games for India :)
but m all praise for this guys batting beauty and the ease in which he plays,which is very rare, all i said was there are lots of good talent around who are waiting for their chances but rohit seems to be very different.
i am watching him play from his debut seems to be a good batsman its only a matter of time and with a bit of maturity,determination he will outclass all the cricketers around for sure.
no denying to the fact that he not done great in the begining of his carrer ,but ups and down will always happen,now he seems to go for a long ride in his carrer.
ravindra jadega is a great find in himself ,very young and a perfect cricketer and m sure he should have a great future ahead of him ,unless some dirty politics sides him,but comparing him to rohit sharma is not something i can think of,sorry chirag
coz,like i said there were and there are lots of good cricketers around,but to make batting look beautiful and easy is not a easy task to do,which i find in rohit sharma
lets see chirag,no offence to your comment its just a personal perspective
