Appeal?
by sakar panch on Mar 01, 2011 10:24 AM  | Hide replies

Do fielders need to appeal for catches as well? I thought fielding team appeal is required only for run out (and possibly LBW?).

If you call our fielders deaf, then what happened to the Umpire's hearing ability?

Assuming that the appeal was turned down the replays were certainly not convincing, UDRS also surely would not help.

Just dont write some nonsense just because you have been given some space in this site.

Yes Sir, You have to Appeal for a Wicket unless it's a Clear Wicket, like Clean Bowled and Caught off a Clear edge, Umpire can't give it out even though he knew that the Batsman Nicked if the Fielding Team Not Appealing.

But even that will require the bowler to appeal and call for a review if the appeal is turned down... :)

warne's prediction
by biswanath roy on Mar 01, 2011 10:09 AM  | Hide replies

before this match started shane warne had predicted that the match would end in a tie, as both times are wary in facing srilanka in the quaterfinals, thus would like to split points, by tying the match.finally that was what happened, & now this story of the indians not appealing against strauss,taken with a story appearing in the english paper"guardian" that sachin too was let off by the english when he was in his 20's, makes one think that warne had got an inkling that the match could be fixed.

Biswanath Roy:

Read Rediff:
But the man who had predicted the result right from the start could not stop himself from having the last word.

"Before u (you) think there was something untoward re prediction of a tie, thought it was going to be a cracker -- tie (prediction) was tongue in cheek -- but right," Warne tweeted after the match, no doubt grinning from ear to ear.

As for fixing theories:
If it was fixed, all the involved participants played their roles to perfection... Knowing EXACTLY how to bowl, how to exactly edge, exactly hit a six in the last over etc. etc...

We must all enjoy such perfectionist displays and hope that our governments can administer with such precision... :)

BTW, if Indians were not interested in letting Strauss go, why should he have walked, if one may ask? :)

Add ear testing to the fitness routine

The players should be checked for their hearing deficiencies before every match. BCCI should add this into the preparation checklist..

Dhoni probably fixed it
by Jay on Mar 01, 2011 08:07 AM  | Hide replies

Dhoni did not even appeal after taking the genuine snicks from Strauss on two occasions. This shows that he definitely had no intention of winning the match or would probably have fixed against India. Or if he has any hearing problems he should be replaced. That he allowed ones and twos easily shows he wanted India to lose.

Ashwin - The odd man in the team
by kumar on Mar 01, 2011 04:04 AM  | Hide replies

Indian selectors made a big mistake by selecting Ashwin. Ashwin is not going to play any role. he can't be selected as a spinner or an all rounder. Now Dhoni is feeling the heat because of this unncessary selection. Instead of ashwin, selectors should have opted for Ohja. Since the mistake is already done, Dhoni has to bear that mistake.
Unncessarily Ashwin got selected because he is from Tamil Nadu. He is keep on getting selected and didn;t play a single match. No one knows what is his role. He was on bench for last 20 to 30 matches. Srikanth is selecting him as if he is Muttaih Muralidharan

Did Ashwin fail in any match? He has played well in whatever opportunities he was given, even bowling in power plays. May be he is not ready to fix the match with Dhoni.

jayega thik hai... tum nikalega kya?

argument is quite valid. Ashwin is not bad, but has little chance of being in final 11. Ojha would certainly have been better bet than both Chawla and Ashwin.

oh well.. i'd say break Nehra's leg with a stump and replace him with Ojha.
