Kevin has shown that there is cricket talent elsewhere in the world also. Keep it up Kevin, against us, India.

But Indian Team thinks that everyday is a Sunday (holiday for cricket) for them. You see how they spoiled the match against England

Pathan should up in batting order
by robbyrocket on Mar 03, 2011 10:59 AM  | Hide replies

I’m not happy with batting line up too. We know that how Pathan make impact to other team by his batting with strike rate of 150 or more but we are avoiding to send him at 3-4 down order and giving him 2-3 overs which is not fair with him or india. Why not we give him the chance at upper level after Gambhir.
I didn’t understand why dhoni is coming before then him if there is 10-12 overs remaining which we have seen in last tied match.

I m not agree with you. He is in the team only for 2 knock. He is not a consistent player. Indian captain should take raina. He will play better in India.

Stunning performance of Ireland
by Pandurangarao Kurudi on Mar 03, 2011 10:58 AM

Congrats Ireland particularly Kevin O'Brien who has shocked every one including himself. But it is not correct for any one to conclude basing on one match result. We have seen so many matches with peculiar defeats & victories. Let us know one aspect always. The team who performs well on the day wins.I am confident we will win on 6th instant at B'lore. Dhoni now knows Ireland team's SWOT & he naturally shall plan well for the ensuing match. Pandurangarao

Bring Ireland to next level of cricket
by VIkrant ubale on Mar 03, 2011 10:55 AM

Look ICC has invested on Bangladesh and what are they in 12years of Full Membership still Minnows.
If ICC can invest same on IRELAND they will be atleast in top 6 of world in 10years.
ICC is reducing world cup to 10nations in 2015
What they expect from these small teams.
They will play every 4years with top opposition in world cup and make a mark that's not possible.
teams like Kenya,Canada,Netherlands when qualified in 2009 should have been regularly playing against Bangladesh,Zimbabwe,West Indies and even A teams of India,Pakistan,Sri Lanka,England.
Then you will certainty have competitive worldcup.
Bring IRELAND to next level let them play Test With Bangladesh,Zimbabwe,West Indies,New Zealand in Home Away basis for 4years then bring them to play against Giants of game.
Or you will see this Kevin O'Brien,Dockrell,Striling playing for England in 2015,Just like Eion Morgan Irish who played WorldCup in 2007 for Ireland.
They are producing good cricketers please ICC don't listen to BCCI votes promote them Test Level.
Ireland has good infrastructure in school cricket and clubs. Where they can produce players and what future they have other than playing for England.
Game should be globalized . Think of future more nations more sponsorship . People on streets of Ireland had started talking cricket interest is growing in Ireland, don't let it fade away like Kenya after 2003.
Invest in them just like Zimbabwe and Bangladesh.
What associates get funding is very less than Full Mem
