I agree.. too much cricket.. and the most money minded of them all (Dhoni)is not ready to give up Captaincy in T 20, where he is with team is not performing at all.
The test series is already fixed by bookies, whoever is more richer will win, lets see if Indian bookie is more powerful (may be he is if iNdia loses and he makes more money as always money matters)
Re: Btw test series is always fixed

If crickers are wealthy like the Indian then there is a very less chance of fixing,, as so much would be at stake..
I follow Ladbrokes forecast very closely. Whether fixing or otherwise, the odds are always true. For the third test, South Africa is placed 5/4, Draw at 11/8 and India 3/1. So, take your chances. Watch the test unemotionally. Good news is the 2011 World Cup.

Lot of credit goes to coach as well Captain and team combo, u need talented players like Harbhajan, Zak and Yuvi (who all can be captains) play under Dhoni and still perform. Although i feel Yuvi is bit egostic.
On the otherhand the seniors Sachin, Laxman and Dravid are still hanging around (no pun intended) which shows their strength and perseverance.

We continuously had foreign coaches, so why this statement now? And for that matter when Ajit wadekar as the coach, we had great success.

If you joking it is fine, otherwise it is ridiculous. People have to perform else no one can survive. Gavaskar's son could not do any thing. Vijay Manjrekar's son is no commentrator even though he was highly talented. Surender Amarnath could not make it when Mahindar Amarnath was around.

They qualified on their own, by talent and not by reservation - Bhagwat Chandrasekhar (BC), Sourav Chandidas (SC) Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar (ST). What say ?
I like the fact that the team is calm in the dressing room. Is it because they are confident ? Or is it because they care a damn what happens ? With each of them having crores in the bank, the latter seems possible too !

One must doff our hats to Gary Kirsten and his staff for moulding this Indian team into a world beater team. Their man-management skills have led to better bonding and team spirit across the team and this shows in results.
here is hoping that the Indian board retains this coach and support staff for another 3 years. Let us keep our fingers crossed!

It is not just Kristen who definitely did a good job but two hands are needed to clap. We didnt have the likes of Ganguly now and all team members like laxman, Dravid and Sachin are all gentlemen like the captain. Thats when having good coach helped.
