It was Greg Chappel who spoiled his cricketing career. He started to concentrate on his batting ad forgot that he is in the team for his bowling skills. I feel sorry for this guy he cu=ould have been an allrounder India is looking for, hope he gets back his rythem all the best Mr Pathan and hope you are not one season wonder boy.

Lets accept it. India was never a bowling team from the beginning!!! Barring a handful, none of the bowlers have been even state-level class (for the way they used to get hammered in Ranji Trophy), let alone international class!!!

Though India is not a bowling team but we won all the major tournaments because of our bowlers. 1983 WC, Benson & Hedges series, Champions Trpohy, T-20 WC (2007) barring 2011 WC

suresh rainia averaged 2 runs in England nad 3 runs in south sfrica// jave you lost your mind? he is bad... cannot face good bowling
After three to four years layoff, a fast bowler can never make a come back.Irfan has delivered his best already and need to announce his retirement.His elder brother has also had his time.There's no place for them in India XI now as better players have filled the spots.
You were carried away by your success .forgot your strengths ,thought you can do anything More and Greg have manipulated for their own whims. All in all Inia has lost a good allrounder . You will find it harder to get back first there is no Ganguly who identified talent quickly and encouraged it .He is not like Dhoni who is more manipulative and has strong like and dislikes based on factors other than cirket.
