A TEST OF INDIAN BATTING VS SL BATTING ?
by damodaran mohan on Jul 23, 2012 03:22 PM

Good India start the season with a win even if not very convincing win. Batting clicked alright even if it is with help of lady luck but bowling,‘work in progress’. Given the form of SL batsman especially of Sangha , India must brace itself for a tough battle ahead. India started off shakily with Sehwag looking rusty but were lucky to get away with dropped catches and shoddy fielding by the SLans coupled with some umpiring decisions that went India way. To the credit of Sehwag however he pulled himself out from the early jitters to play a responsible innings along with the new Sachin Tendulkar in the team, Virat Kohli to lay the foundation for the win. Sehwag’s innings will help him gain further confidence thereby helping India decisively for the series win. To the delight of all the Indian fans, “Virat’ juggernaut of course is slowly but surely rolling on merrily. In the end came the usual finishing cameos of Dhoni-Raina duo yet again to take the total past 300 ensuring the win with SL coming so close. Rohit Sharma of course remains the eternal enigma. He should get into the ‘sharp’ reflexes of Virat Kohli as possibly his ‘laid back’ attitude is proving to be his undoing. He just can’t continue like this with many deserving warming the benches. As regards SL, ably supported by a dangerous Thissera P towards the end , Sangakara playing one of his best ever innings almost turned the tables on India. It is n

Playing X1 selection was not perfect...

1.A.Rahane, Rahul Sharma and Vinay Kumar should replace Rohit Sharma, P.Ojha and Umesh Yadav in next match.
2.Gambhit should always bat at 3.
3.Use Raina as part time bowler rather than Sehwag

Rahane comes in place of Rohit and Gambhir drops back to 3., No more Vinay in this series., Need to look at Rahul Sharma's mental strength after the drug report. If he is still mentally strong, can get game.. Ojha removal after one game also will sound unfortunate for him.

LEGENDS OF FLAT WICKETS !!
by richa on Jul 22, 2012 09:07 AM  | Hide replies

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.
