Interesting question.....! We lost all 3 ODIs and drew 1 test match. But i think it is too early to call it a "panauti" pitch :)

Wow.... Comments coming from a person who is actually representing a country that has the cleanest team in the world.... I am just amazed.......
why do you keep showing this ticket collector dhoni; show the team if you must; the game of cricket has become a circus in any case and dhoni is the circus joker.

Funny logic Karthick, Gambhir played better than Dhoni and scored more than Dhoni in finals. Is it nothing? Zaheer Khan & Yuvraj who played so well. Is it nothing? And u say Dhoni won a world cup with his batting alone.....!

I am not undermining there performances at all boss... But on the given day, that is finals he was the best batsman in team and he won the world cup... But for him, it might have been difficult....

T-20 wcup goginder sharma final over led india to victory. That day it was important. But it doesn't make him world clas player. same way medicore dhoni with one inning will never be counted as great. he is simply overhyped politicain surviving on luck & manipulation.

Sorry if u think that he was the best batsman available. Gambhir's did all the foundation work. When Dhoni came, he only had to keep the momentum going. It is a pity that fans our country still stick on to Sachin & Dhoni while ignoring all the performances of the other 9 players!

On that day he was the best boss... I accept he had laid the foundation, but dhoni was the best batsmen on view that day,....

Boss most of them are sporting wickets anyways.... Indian pitches are meant for spin and that they will have... no matter what....... Out of the gound scheduled for matches only mumbai has some doubts to it...it might turn a lot..that also based on australi-india test match... the world cup was fine though........Ever place has there characteristics,in england it will swing cos conditions and in india it will spin cos of soil.....
Revenge is when you visit England and beat them at their backyard. Back here you prepare pitches where the ball just rises to the toe level. You pack the team with 10 batsmen and no one has a chance to pick wickets in such conditions. So the team that scores 400 runs will beat the other team by 10-15 runs.

Correct.Our team's show was total no show.Hope we learn from our mistakes and groom quality pacers and seaming and green pitches,which will help our bastmen avoid this kind of debacle in future.

Dude...You have not watched the matches closely. Greame Swann took 5 wickets in tests and Harbajan went wicketless. So its not with the pitch in England but with the quality of bowling....
