Well very much of boring cricket where one team is scoring 300 plus and other team is trying to chase and just got short and now its the time to make too many centuries and records on flat wickets. Meaning less cricket altogether.

LOLZ, Agree with the first part till your exclamation mark. But second half is simply a hilarious joke....!
Kohli gets credit for his sluggish front foot innings? In that case, Dhoni gets undue credit for his selfish innings :)
Are you so foolish to understand that without Ashwin's & Pathan's superb bowling, this match would also have gone the Asia cup way?

so this is your proof of your claim that you give credit to all good performances?
by refusing to acknowledge and credit the good batting of dhoni and raina? :)

No, my only arguement here is that Dhoni is not the only saviour :) Anything and everything I speak need not be directed to credit and blame.
By your logic, why dont you advise a Dhoni fanatic not to speak nonsense on Kohli who gave good support to Sehwag and later continued the good work?

yes, i agree he should not have spoken disparagingly about kohli but you should not call his post after exclamation marks as hilarious either! :)

Boss, Did you watch the match completely or are you talking from some match played previously long long ago.. It was Kohli's splendid batting & Sehwag's blitzeriekg that saved the match.. As usual Dhoni came in the end and scored well but certainly not the saviour of the match.. Tendu's man of the match & century would be mostly at the cost of India's defeat which is not at all needed.

Whats wrong with flat tracks as long as the conditions are same for both the teams. Agreed you need different skills and bowlers are powerless on the flat surfaces but that doesn't make the contest interesting unless you want to watch bowlers talent only. We have pitches that stay flat in the first innings and starts turning in the second innings making the contest unfair and toss mostly determining the outcome. This is a problem and we need to look at addressing this issue as toss should be a small factor in the game rather a critical one. Cricket is a game with one team winning and other team going empty handed. The conditions should fair for both the teams. It is not a talent show where individuals can come and show their skills under difficult conditions. This is the reason I don't like test cricket. But that is a long discussion for some other time.
