Re: IF ISHANT IS GIVEN ANOTHER CHANCE

??c'mon. Have it your way...-- I dont see any objectivity in most of the comments, Just blind anger or blind praise. Prafulla- I DONT MIND india gets a SPECIALIST spinner or shorter medium pace bowler if they cannot train or utilize a pacer properly. IF YOU GIVE ELEPHANT TO poor person, it has no use for him. He cannot use it's height or power. And if improper Army uses elephant in war, it can get that elephant killed by using it improperly and the elephant can turn back on it's own army and trample it. This will happen to future fast bowlers as well if they also happen to be tall.
Re: what RAINA IS DOING?

Raina is not used to batting at No.4..... Most of the time he has batted at either no.6 or 7.... Where a batsman needs an attacking mindset in last 7-8 overs & follow his instincts.... He's used to that mindset.... Dhoni said all this.... And that's why he's doing that mistake.... He needs some more time....
Kapil said "you should use something that is above your shoulder (brain)" about ishanth giving 60 runs in 4 overs IPL its lesss than 6 months.. his performance is bad through out this series.. Exceptions should be given to exceptionable players not every player... it sucks and demotivates people who are performaing.. sports selection should be based on competetiveness not on Quota basis...
1>Ishanth still rusty.. 2>Yuvi though he played well in T20 his selection is bit confusing :( 3> Its time for Sir Jadeja with bat also.. 4>Rohit n Dawan not every day i s urs.. so play according pitch conditions... 5> Remaining bowlers learn survival techiques.. indian pitches are not for wicket taking so learn techniques not to give 4 n 6 thats alll you will be most valuable bowler ever..
Faukner, we have exposed "how and why" you could hammer Ishant...so now when indian produces a bowler who understand the reasons for such hits, then it is you and certain teams that will have to worry.. == yorker ATTEMPT COMING FROM HEIGHT of Ishant allows lot of time for batsmen to come forward and be under the ball and hit for a six when they figure out the intent of bowler and the line and length. This is what faulkner did, he figured out the line and length and also figured out Ishant's intent. again. .Two things. Dhoni miscalculated. VINAY WAS DOING WELL. Team India had 2 overs left for vinay that Dhoni gave to ishant and kohli...what more, listening to dhoni comment on good yorker that Australia also heard. Auz were ready. They also saw what Ishant was doing this 1 dayer. Ishant forgot the occasional bouncer and usual tricks when he was being beaten badly. He had more of that yorker thing in his mind. Secondly, instead of rise and fall batsmen like yuvi/raina/etc india needs specialist spinner like ojha or mishra..we could replace pacer by spinner as well. ======= Australia vs india mindset for yorker and rest of bowling. Ishant might have practiced perfect yorker but they are only good if batsmen stays in his crease or closer and does not take 1 or 2 steps out to smash. . Getting lbw is difficult outside crease even when ball hits high and is going down to hit the stumps. Yorkers is mostly effective only when batsmen is caged down closer to stumps or the bo

Yorker is part of package but this is not what india does unlike Auz attempts. ..so there comes old style variation into use, understanding the advantage and shortcoming of being tall. You just cannot follow new style without using what you were good with earlier.
'Compare Ishant yorker and similar stuff with yorker from Malinga, for Malinga delivery comes from shorter height, it comes fast like a slanted sling(below his head or slightly above his head). Whereas from ishant, it comes from higher height, it is slower than Malinga, it give enough time for bowler to come forward and get under...and when opposing team figures out the intent (from action and body language), the length and line. The bowler is a toast. And Ishant in his mind had yorker or something like that and nothing else. Ishant and rest while adding new stuff should not loose their old stuff that got them current success.

yes we need speed, skills but those are useless if we dont know how to apply it and when...so we also need to think proper from higher level.
the world has seen. He is not able to perform in favourable conditions such as england and australia. How will he perform in India. He is useless. he should be kicked out on the Indian team .
