viru is a kind of player whose scoring range is either a 0 or 200..the more he grows in age, the more he likes to bang the ball from his crease as the bodily condition wont allow to stretch his footwork. and in the absence of this, he doesnt even know to score runs like dravid..am afraid hes past his prime..its good for him and the team if he retires immediately..even the great richards had retired by the time he crossed 8000 runs...
The difference in fielding when the following are not there..Thendi, drawid, laxative, zaheer and ishant... the aussies are now actually scared to take cheeky singles

although i support the youngsters just from the other side if you look - the dravids the sachin when the come to bat we feel they are going to score a century or atleast a half century but with the liks of raina and others that cannot be said - felding lapse - the seniors mae up with their batting- same cannot be true riht now though

Sehwag is 33 and has been playing international cricket for over 12 years;
Gambhir is 30 and has been in international cricket for 9 years;
Dhoni is also 30 and has been in international cricket for over 7 years.
These players are not 'ancient' like Sachin, Dravid, Laxman...but to call them as new generation players is a joke! By any standards, a player with 7 years experience has to be called a senior.
If Dhoni is from new generation, then which generation do Kohli, Ashwin, Ishant, Umesh Yadav belong to?

Well..India won against Sri-lanka as wel and it had ur 'senior' Sachin Tendulkar. so to say tht 'india back to winning ways with seniors no longer there..." is absurd

Only in India one finds no respect for Seniors when the team fails. By this yardstick, aussies should bay for the blood of Ponting, Brett Lee, Hussey etc; but they are not ?

Australia is a sporting nation where there are opportunities for budding sportsmen, apart from cricket they have world famous hockey players, tennis players, atheletics, swimmers, hockey players, football players, in short in every field there are excellent players unlike India which is cricket crazy..in short we can't match them in any field..

BM, if seniors like dravid, laxman, sachin dont retire then kohli ashwin, ishant, yadav belong to ''lost generation players''...
and if greg chappell had not been our coach then ganguly, laxman, sachin, dravid, kumble etc. would have played T20 Wc, 2011 WC, would still be playing and in that case dhoni, gambhir, kohli, raina, ashwin etc. would have been ''unheard of generation players''....
Re: Re: Re: Re: hi
by Sunil Vaidya on Feb 13, 2012 03:54 PM
BTW, BM since dhoni, gambhir, sehwag etc. are seniors according to you, you must be very pleased that they are still playing and must be hoping that they will play for many more years to come given that you are against removal of senior players...
and any suggestion that these senior players (dhoni, gambhir, sehwag) be removed must make you really angry...

This Medicore Sunil Vaidya think players above 35 are senior,because he is also 44 but India win against S.lanka having Tendulkar in team
Re: Re: Re: hi
by Sunil Vaidya on Feb 13, 2012 04:13 PM
sanjeev i dont belong to ''your generation'' type people who prefer losses with dravid, sachin, laxman etc. instead of wins with these players not being in the team...
Re: Re: Re: Re: hi
by Sunil Vaidya on Feb 13, 2012 04:14 PM
if i am happy with india wins with new generation players and that makes me ''medicore'' i dont mind that...i would hate being ''medicore'' of YOUR type who likes that we lose more with senior or ancient generation players...
