it is high time sachin takes back the captaincy from harbhajan. this the second time munaf has misbehaved with opposition players & got warned & fined.unfortunately harbhajan himself is of that nature, the media sided with him in his "monkey" episode in australia, when actually he had said "tere ma.."which is even worse.sachin can bring some semblance in the side, which presently looks disjointed &, appears to have run out of ideas.

“Sourav is an experienced player and an experienced captain. He knows when to turn the game around. It only goes to show how great a player he is,” - VIRU..
When you have bhajji as captian what else you can expect from their players...Captain should lead as example and we all know how bhajji behaves ...Fine is not enough for munaf unless it is done like football where when red card given the team plays with one player short we cannot expect these kind of players to behave
It has nothing to do with cricketing ability but pure & simple poor upbringing.The family has never taught some of these players values in life & sudden money in cricket which far superior players of era gone by never heard of has gone to their head. Virat,Munaf,Irfan,Srisant leads the pack of such ill mannerd players who deserves to lose more than just 50% of match fee.

thats cos irfan is not in the same league as zaheer, he know first he needs to get there...sane person
I dont regard Munaf Patel as a good bowler - I think he is mediocre who keeps his bowling within limits of his strengths. Infact he is one of the worst cricketers I have seen - except his bowling he has no strengths. He cannot field, and can hardly hold the bat. However I have respect towards him for his role in winning the world cup. He bowled his heart out in the final stages of the tournament and a run-containing bowler took some important wickets. Never seen him aggressive so I am surprised. I wish him luck, however I hope to see agressive bowlers like Varun Aaron and Umesh Yadav coming to the forefront.

I hink Ojha was good.. Plus, RP played 3 games whereas Nayar played one i think.. Dinda deserves to be in the league of 3 star.. he was too good in all the games he played.. Bisla is not that good to be in 3 *.. Munaf gets 2 * for swearing??

Ojha- Definitely below par after his performance against KXIP. Dinda: May be u r right, may be i am right- its a 50-50 Bisla: Playing game changing, attacking style. Munaf: He is in the top 5 wickets for IPL 5. Agree that his swearing made me feel sick. Especially against an youngster playing well. Unfortunately, this scorcard is only abt cricket performance and he is OK.
1.Please concentrate only on your bowling.Make the batsmen struggle with good controlled bowling,rather than doing ugly 'bakbak'.This takes away your energy apart form loosing respect. 2.If you bowl poorly you are bound to go for runs.Don't experiment too much.When bowling slower ones definitely don't put it at short pitch length. 3.Return to your strength,i.e. bowl around the offstump line with movement both ways. 4.Take the example of Murali, he just smiles,smiles and strangles the batsman.
