You will get 20 wickets.. You're playing against old, lethargic billionaires.. All they care about is money

The difference

The main difference between the two teams is the middle order. In almost all the matches, except in Perth, Australia also lost first 3 wickets cheaply like India, but their middle order played admirably and won the matches. But India lost because their famed middle order failed to live up the reputation.

Hey Blind Sachin Idol worshippers-Grow up and Use your heads !!
by Kumar Gourkar on Jan 25, 2012 09:02 AM  | Hide replies

It looks like we have lot of blind worshippers of Sachin Idol in this country. From the responses I received, it looks like unless these kind of people change and encourage new promising cricketers to come up and play for India, Indian cricket will never improve. Inspite of solid proofs, they are not prepared to agree that Sachin is never a knockout match winner or a pressure cooker player. Sachin was never prepared to face challenges head-on. When we made him captain of India team, he failed miserably with his batting. At that time itself, when he was scoring on single digits, he should have been rested and a new promising player could have been given chance. Sachin owes most of his records to the leniency of the Indian Cricket Board which is a bunch of people who think with their legs than heads. Some people questioned my usage "when we wanted him most". It means due to the build-up reputation of Sachin, we wanted him to badly turn things around for India and he failed. Sachin was or never will be a pressure-cooker player. He can never dare to come at No.4 or 5 and bat like Ponting, Steve Waugh, Michael Bevan or even Aravinda Desilva.

Taking 20 wickets on this wicket a correction
by satishgs on Jan 25, 2012 08:33 AM

Ponting ( punter) has provided a clarification, taking Australian 20 wickets in this pitch is difficult, but not Indian 20 wickets.
Australian bowlers are real pacers, and our famed batting are in total shambles and rut.

So why 20 wickets, even if India given 4 innings to play, they may not match the score of 650 Australia is going to score int his match.

Ponting registering his 1st Triple hundred, Hussey another 100, Clark 200,

India a sorry 150 all out in 1st innings, and 120 in second.

ojha and rahul much better than the pack.

rahul is next generation with frest plans and we need to bring him in so Ashwin is not over-exposed.

Ashwin comes in as second spinner.

Again,

cartelism within the indian team, we have politicians in team as well.
when it comes to selecting proper players, politician in team say, we all played bad, so boot us all or none. such is political minds of selectors and players.

for indian bowlers it will be impossible and for aussie bowlers it will be very easy...
