100th India-England Test
by Bowrie RK on Jul 24, 2011 02:35 PM  | Hide replies

The "great" cricket writers from various English newspapers by continuously harping on Sachin Tendulkar reaching the 100 centuries milestone seem to be obsessed by Tendulkar's achievements. They think nothing beyond him. A coverdrive by him will make them go go but if Dravid hit the same stroke, it's just another stroke. The correspondents of the leading English newspapers write columns about him, but did little justice to lion-hearted batting by Rahul Dravid. What a bias! When will they write objectively?

Dravid has been an unsung hero even at home ! The mumbaikar gang is very powerful with the board, media etc

They are all fools,idiots,good for nothing and all are under the influence of their wives.All cricket writers today have brains less than a 5 year old boy.So beware, no self respect man must listen to these differently-abled third rated donkeys.Each and Everyone must kick these fellows out .

Just read the Times of India paper they always praise Tendulkar even if he scores 10 runs they will write two exquisite boundaries etc. Even if sardar scores hundred they will write he got guidance from Sachin. everywhere Sachin. It looks like TOI is earning because of tendulkar.

When Dravid got out on 36 in the second inning they have written that he got out on poor shot fine but why to put so in so bad tone what your dearest sachin did?

Raina got enough chance
by Globe Mart on Jul 24, 2011 12:50 PM  | Hide replies

time to ask raina some tough questions. Virat should be groomed as he has the temperament althoug failed In England. Nots aying oust raina but ask him to perform. Rohit Sharma, Suresh raina and Virat should be groomed properly and intensly.Another is Cheteshawr puja. Mukund also show good intent. Murali will have to prrove.

Yuvi will get a chance if Raina fils again today and in the second test. Yuvi can take place of Raina as he is not an opener

Zaheer should be honest
by Globe Mart on Jul 24, 2011 12:40 PM

Zaheer should have been prepared well and should not have put India in jeopardy. But Board also wanted and forced him to go as they do not have any reliaable potent weapon.

people talked abt craps abt dravid from past 2 yrs
by Mr Bean on Jul 24, 2011 12:23 PM  | Hide replies

and even after the third test against WI people heavily criticized him for not playing according to the situation but those morons forgot that it was he who won the first test for us in a crisis situation otherwise we couldnt have won that series as well.


even yday under the crisis situation it was the wall who stood firmly and saved us from follow on,when all other players showed their back.

Bhaji is now seeing everything large --zero
by R A on Jul 24, 2011 12:19 PM  | Hide replies

O runs , 0 wickets. He has made is large finally. Cricket is too small a thing for him, he should try his hand at politics, he and his mom are naturals at inciting passions.

What Dhoni is doing there
by Globe Mart on Jul 24, 2011 12:15 PM  | Hide replies

Please tell the quality of Dhoni that can give him a birth is test squad. he is a wonderful striker in one day format. But did he make it large to be in the test. Average wicketkeeping. Then why not Dinesh karthick .
