I am very happy to see Pravin Kumar's performance. He has done an excellent job in the bowling department and is fast becoming the most dependable bowler for this young Indian side.

Yupp Bagh he is doing good and getting matured match by match he was the hero of our famous win in Autralia Final's and he is doing great here in New Zealand too.
 
Surely its a big Excitment for me too and i have planned by leaves in such a way so that i can watch all the one dayers hehehehe.


Lucky You !! :)


I m agree on almost every thing except on Pathan's it has to be Yusuf only no Irfan for One dayers and Test.
And about selection only a one player i m missing in this team its RP Singh he will be handy in the New Zealand conditions he is a cross armed bowler he could have been dangerous in New Zealand but its fine otherwise team is well balanced.
Hope we will come with 2-0 this friday cheers:rock

RP is a good prospect , but he is off colr at times due to excitement or so , and remember Dhoni defended his selection some time back , whatever i understand of Dhoni , he is a clever person , may be he just left out RP for this tour and RP is back next time ;) tell ya , this guy Dhoni is r eally clever!

Irfan , well i kind of disagree , he is a great pros pect , he was awesome when he came and he used to swing t he ball genuinely , remember Yousuf Yohana and Younis Khan were his bunnies on that Pak tour , right hander , that booming inswinger starting outside off , hitting in line of middle stick on the pad , and that's another LBW for Pathan. He was doing great with Chappel and played some great knocks at the top of order. But then he was bolted down by expectations of a Next Kapil or a Pollock or Kallis. We must give him some time , confidence and if he can get his bowling to be swinging in the air and around 130s he will be great in as an all-rounder , his batting abilities are beyond doubts! :)

He like his captain is street smart , never watched him in action but still reading off cricinfo , he seems to have a cool head and thats what is veryimportant for a bowler ! :)



Anyways , I was joking with a friend of mine on Raina and Gambhir , I could not have imagined this guys tearing apart bowling attacks , but they are really doing that and that is so very good to watch! :)
Perhaps they are taking drugs !:eek::D Kidding! :)
 
Nishant bhai u r right Dhoni may struggle on NZ pitches but i don't feel the same for Yuvvi. I think he enjoys playing more on the tracks where ball comes quickly onto bat rather than slow ones. And look he already has a fifty on his name.
see brother Yuvi's flop show continues bhai We all know he is a good player at fast pitches but here in new zealand bounce is bit more than other countries which struggles him. I wish he will come back as a king but till now he is not comfortable.
 
Hey guys good news for us Dravid started very well in the tour in the local match of new zealand he had made today 102 good news for test matches cheers he is i classic player if he shines in test series surely we are going to dominate the series cheers. I m one of the biggest fan of him:)

3-0 mate !!!!


Its like t he Geoff Boycott and Tony Greig commentary ! Going , going , gone! ;) !!!


Sehwag was on fire , there is so much happiness to see these guys firing , always knew they have the potential! :)
 
Whenever Sehwag plays like this, even the best bowlers of the world seems like local club bowlers .... what a player :)

A series win after 40 years in New Zealand...... that's a real achievement.

Well Done, India :)
 
When the thread started, there were some awesome comments on Indian team, right in the style of Star News' "Match ke Dushman". Want to see what these guys have to say now :)

Indian team needs supporters and not knee-jerk fans! This is probably one of the best Indian teams ever. But doesn't mean they would win everything! Why criticise unnecessarily and illogically?

Buddy now they are playing great that's why everyone is praising them, but if they don't that obvious they will face the negative comments too. Its like the exams if u r doing good u will get Wah wah from every where but if u got fail u have to face consequences too.:)
 
I saw a desi at the Hamilton ground, waving a banner which said "Seh-WHACK!!!" . Kiwi bowlers >> :boxing << Seh-WHACK. He hit a six to bring up his 11th ton so you can imagine how furious he was then.

My point is that criticism should be based on some facts and logic. And so should be praise. A knee-jerk fan is the one who heaps praises when the team wins and gutters the team when it loses. There has to be some balance! Criticising because they lost a couple of matches is unfair. When 2 teams play, one has to lose. The losses were not because of some inherent problems within the team. They lost because the other team played better on the day and probably because the greedy BCCI couldn't accomodate a couple of practise matches on the itinerary. I am happy with criticism even when the team has WON as long as it is rational. For example, I think Dhoni is an excellent captain, but I can still criticise him for the fact that he has not given the ball to Sehwag in any of the 3 matches we won. As I think Sehwag is the best part time bowler amongst him, Yuvraj and Pathan. And there should be a consicous effort to develop him as an all rounder like Jayasurya.

Agree bro with all the facts :)
Most with Sehwag as a part time bowler :)

Dhoni is excellent Caption, No Doubt. His problems with Sehwag seems quite old. During the Australian tour, Sehwag was asked to sit on the benches in best of three finals when Sehwag was in such a good form and provided a comeback fight in 3rd test match and avoided the defeat in 4th Test by his 152 runs single handledly. Even Australian media quoted "There was only Sehwag standing firm between India and the defeat".

Before that Sehwag missed few matched in T-20 world cup too curtesy Dhoni with escuse of resting a few players.

During Asia Cup, last year, Sehwag was again rested without any reason and in a match Seresh raina was awarded "man of the Match for his 88 instead of brillinat 124 by Sehwag. Here i believe that Caption always have a say in the declaration of the Man of the Match award.

Dhoni's attitude towards Sehwag somewhat softened after the 87 run blast against England in the first test match.

These days Sehwag is in such a destructive and dominating form that even idea of resting him can invite strong criticizm otherwise i believe Dhoni would still like to rest him for few matches.

I don't know what and where is the problem, but it is there.
