Ashwin can bowl 49th over and he can bowl in power play because of this his figures are worsensed.

No Sir ... Shami Ahmed has now changed his name to Shyam Sharma. He is not a Muslim now. Are you happy now? Would you consider him now? :-)

Re: kohli also to be blamed

in some earlier matches Kohli was a good surprise, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. very simple, no team can win all the matches they play.
What Dhoni and the Cricket-worshippers should know is that when you have a batsman-friendly pitch, these things are bound to happen. When Dhoni in the third one dayer, or Virat Kohli was belting the bowlers to fours and sixers, did you think of the bowlers? The curator should be blamed and not Ishanth Sharma. The Aussies did not ridicule their bowlers when India scored 362/1 and won the match. It is high time people are made aware of the fact that Cricket in this country is played for money and not fun. It is more like the gambling Casino Royale. How long has it been when any bowler won the man of the match award in an one dayer in India?

True. Chasing is easy on batsman friendly pitches. India also would have won the match. We have won the previous match in spite of a huge target and Australian bowlers are better.

When India won the second match it was purely because of batting talent. But Ishant's bowling in the 48th over of 3rd match was plain stupidity. Even after being belted for couple of 6s he was not learning. He didn't learn from the past matches also. Ishant is definitely a worry for India. So is Ashwin. These 2 can't take their place for granted any longer. Agreed the conditions are getting more and more batsman friendly, but why should that be an excuse for bowlers not to improvise. They are, particularly Indian bowlers are not evolving with the changes in the game. Their methods are so outdated, they get belted everytime. Compared to bowling, our fielding has improved a lot. Otherwise, our bowlers would be leaking 350 in every game.

Letting Kohli bowl was a mistake. That over gave away 18 runs and it was needless as Kohli is NOT a bowler.
Ishant, get your cut exactly like the way Dhoni has done his Mohawk style cut. Batsmen will be scared of facing you, even before you start to bowl.
However, your bowling skills are too limited. You get wickets when batsmen make mistakes and not b'cos you have some genuine skills, which is actually just club game bowling. Simply bowling fast without any line, length and plans is idiotic, thats what you do.

With all regards to your profile & ckt know how, please do not blame bowlers at all.. First-the curator-abt slow pitch preparation, second-the rules of limits of thirty yards and lastly but not least-the captain who didn't do any thing- abt field setting and motivate the bowlers. The skills of a bowler go off when he gets a six on good-length bowl.

You should send your fielders to the stands only when Ishant bowls. Absolutely no thinking on his part to add variety to his bowling. Plain ordinary in the death overs. Yes, Dhoni should have done something during thatb mauling. But not by changing his field setup, but by removing Ishant from bowling midway. Are we allowed to do that by rules?
