The Actual issue is KP and Cook. If India can manage to dismiss them in less than 20 Runs in each innings, 250 Runs in each innings is a Good Total to win.
Stop praising England team. They are yet to bat when the pitch has turned. Look what happened in the Kolkata test in the second innings where they lost 3 wickets for 8 runs. Another 100 runs to win and they would have been gone. England team is plain lucky that India have batted badly in the series. Once India scores a big score, England team falters (Ahmedabad Test). Our batsmen have been gifting their wickets instead of english bowlers taking them.

you people are making fool of yourselves by criticizing Indian team. Be patriotic and support India you traitor dhobi

Telling truth means being unpatriotic? This is strange. Ok, I will say the below:
1. India has the best middle order and captain in the history of cricket. 2. IPL was the greatest thing to happen to mankind. 3. Indian bowlers are the fastest and have captured all 20 wickets of the opposition without fail many hundreds of times. 4. Cook & KP are novices. They are worse than gully boys in cricket and they have survived because all umpires never give them out. 5. Monty & Swann are nothing when compared to Ashwin & Harbhajan. 6. India won more matches on foreign soil than England or Australia. 7. Sachin should play for the next 10 years atleast. 8. Dhoni is a wonderful wicket keeper. 9. Yadav and Manoj Tiwary are really injured. 10. India lead the test series 3-0 and Eng are afraid to come back after Christmas.

1. Indian team is in transition period. Don't expect Kohli, Pujara, etc to do wonders. 2. I hate IPL. It has nothing to do with cricket. 3. Just as England and Australia don't make great spinners (exceptions like warne) India cannot produce fast bowlers because of pitches prepared in either countries. 4. KP and Cook and all English batsmen failed miserably in their previous 3 series. 5. Monty and swann bowled well when the picth turned. 6. Same thing can be said about England and Australia. They have not won many matches in India in the last 2 decades. 7. Yeah why not if he can contribute substantially. 8. Bad wicket keeper. 9. Yeah definitely. 10. The series could still end at 2-2. that's not saying much for england who came here to win a series after 28 years. Did you read - after 28 years.

And yes,dhoni has won ODI as well as T2o world cup and India were the no.1 test team for one year. What more greatness in Dhoni do you want

1. Transition period? Nonsense.... Apart from Pujara, there is nobody new. If you say Kohli is new, please check Cricinfo for stats. 2. It is not my problem if you love or hate IPL. 3. Biggest nonsense. Swann & Monty bowled 10000 times better than Ashwin & Harbhajan. They have Mushtaq Ahmed as a coach and their skills have improved drastically. 4. As if Indian batsmen have played very well in the last 3 series abroad.... :) 5. Same as point-3 6. Dont speak about past glory. It gets you nowhere. 7. May the almighty ravindra jadeja save you and sachin! 8. Agree. 9. No comments. 10. Really? India losing 4-0 was more respectable than England coming here & winning 2 tests (if they dont win the third). Isnt it??

If Dhoni was the reason why India won those cups, is he shaggingoff now? Ask him to win matches by himself.

one win in 2007 t-20 wcup because format was new. But what next. 3 consecutive t-20 wcup 1st round exit. Lost all super 8 matches. Dhoni batting/wicketkeeping also patetic.

People always fume about Indian pitches for India not producing great fast bowlers. Should this be correct, how come Pakistan and Sri Lanka were able to produce quality fast bowlers whose is average less than 25
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Stop praising England
by amjadkmarufs on Dec 12, 2012 04:16 PM
Where have the fast bowlers from pakistan and sl gone. they play few games and are gone. Which bowler has played for more than 4 years. Don't mention oldies. Talk of new ones. The diet, the culture,the physique, etc is quite different when you compare India with Pakistan and SL

India will win the 4th test. Till then you people can bark as much as you want

Mr Dhobi, 1. Kohli is a veteran in Test, happy 3. Swann and panesar bowled well when the pitch heldped them in the series (indian bowlers did not get to bowl when the pitch turned). Remember how swann got hammered in the Ahmedabad test when he bowled in the first innings. 4. England team is looking good because we batted badly not because they bowled well. They have lost 3 previous series and we have lost 2. India is better in that sense. 5. same as 3 6. England have not won any series in the subcontinent in recent times also. 10. England have come here to win the series and if they can't do it then what's the fuss about they being a a better team. Blah Blah.
