The Rahul/Sachin/Laxman syndrome is weakening Indian Cricket. I hope they play the next world cup and then PLAN to retire. Pathetic selectors and frail stalwarts.

Sachin scored the highest in both innings. Dravid also was one of the top scorers. Dhoni failed again...

do you think the other bats mans are doing well.. For the first innings these are the players who contributed more runs except for laxman . Actually there is not consistency in indians performace . They should work on that . Perhpas dravid ,laxman and sachin would be having that plan as longs as they are playing well and contrinuting some runs to the team, they are deserved to be part of the team.
A. Though Gambhir has played very well early in this year, he is struggling to get his form back.. Unfortunately Rahane is also struggling.. Lets open the innings with Rohit Sharma. or worst case open with Dhoni anyway he is going to score 50 only in every 10 innings!! B. It is time, we start looking for No.3 batsman when Dravid is around. May be Drvaid can lower down the order to 4 or 5.

Bug Off.... Your lame comment "Are such activities common in Call center and software industry?" WHY target these 2 only... it could be happening in any industry. Just because the people in these industry work in night shifts doesn't make them "loose" moraly. We work in adverse shifts and we work with great deal of self esteem. It's people with such mentality as your's that make women in such industry vulnerable and object of availability. Please change your outlook.
"I look at positives. Big positive is you need to take 20 wickets and we could do it here. The oppsosition got the scores which we could've managed if we had batted well" - Joking Captain!Every one knows that if you had batted well you would have won! thats what.Why you have not batted well? You smashed a golden egg which you will never get back!Our great captain is fully satisfied just b'coz we were able to take 20 wickets. He should realize that batting is also eqally important to win the matches. ha.ha.hhaaa...!!

The captain him self out of form and he is not playing well .. More over indian there is no consistency in indians batting line as you said they smashed a good oppertunity. India could have won the match as the score is not high and it was a good batting track. Dhoni please do not give reasons concentrate on your performance rather than tv shows, Night parties
to score runs with the bat overseas rather than scoring with his loud mouth... same goes for loud mouth idiot sehwag... first develop skills to really stay at wicket and then score runs rather than trying to hit everyball for 4/6 regardless of what happens... that is playing for urself and not for team cause... then u can claim that 300 runs is gettable...

Absolutely right arvin.he thinks all matches he is playing is ODI or 20-20. he is not playing according to the merit of the game.simply flashing at every ball he sees.the day he luck is good or bowlers luck is bad he can score 200s-300s!!!
..is to last out the first 30 overs of the new ball without losing too many wickets. Whenever an Akash Chopra or a Rahul Dravid did that, the rest of the batting lineup scored easily. This is why Numbers 6, 7 and 8 in the batting order always score easily in Australia.
The abject surrender by Indian batsmen clearly shows that the England defeat was not a flash in the pan. There are serious basic issues of technique and temperament. This is one of the reasons why this team apart from Dravid cannot be rated with best of the likes of Gavaskar, Vengsarkar, Amarnath and Vishwanath.

Rahul Dravid has 46 average in Autralia..he scored 5 centuries since England tour and we lost 5 of them, won 1 against WI..His dropping vital catches in slip has been contributing to the loss as well...But then he is not the only one, this current Big 4 are good, no doubt abt it, but not on pace pitches..Even Sachin has to live rest of his life with fact that he is not the best on fast pitches..Atleast Gavaskar and others of that era use draw lot of matches facing better pace attacks..We should not play more then 2 test match in SA, England, NZ and Aus..atleast nation moral will be good :-)..Yes our batsman are good on indian condition..that applies to aussies too...it was not their batsman who won...the match for them....series result 3-0, with sydney draw..time for VVS and Rahul to retire and let us make a new team...Dhoni may have lived his prime as far as test captainship is concerned..made too many errors...
Well, they were showing the replays of Rahul Dravid being bowled off the no-ball by Siddle and Tony Greig was trying to create a controversy out of thin air. Bill seemed pretty unhappy by it and said something along the lines of Áªt was a no-ball, lets just move on..? which was swiftly followed by a pretty heated exchange b/w the two.
A while later, the cameras were showing some Indian fans in the crowd holding replica of the 2011 world cup. Greig sensed the opportunity to start his India bashing and said something along the lines of Á¸ell, that is one trophy that they still have.. They became no.1 in test cricket shortly after that (lulzz), but were knocked off by England..? Lawry quickly cut in and started talking about the game.
