^ Hope you did not forget this line - Master Plan would only be revealed once it comes true - till then be patient

Someone better win this Saturday. Rain willing

LOL.. just read it in the papers..sad..

first tendulkar made centuary......and to b precise indian have lost more games where sachin scored a century(so the resultis correct)....secondly....india forgot their old captain sourav dada....who was famous for being slow......if they have followed or remmbered him..1 ball less would had been bowled and than ducky-lewi(headache theorem)wont have come.......

@magnet
Are you sure? What are your sources?

yes, i miss the dadagiri
All we have got now is a pair of slippers (pun intended )

Good one! dada would have made a difference to that game and the one against aus today!!!

apart from the disgraceful 35/5, whats even more annoying is the way they are justifying their actions. Lets see now

1) Before we had this superb combo management Irfan was the young sportsperson of the year. The most promising baller, and that was for his balling. Now Irfan is a burden as far as balling goes and he is a afridi as far as batting goes. (his balling anyway is in shambles)

2) Our balling attack is as pathetic as it was anytime before. For some reason the top cronies have decided that they will not go for experience even if they continue to lose(maybe cos they don't want anyone around to question them... or just stick with the guys who are terribly out of form.. like sehwag who can't question anyone these days.. why he is in the team is a questionmark )

3) We seem to be losing quite consistently to even windies these days. And apart from beating pakistan,england and a totally out of form sri lanka we have hardly beaten anyone.(SA came here a depleted side, without the star player like gibbs) and we still drew that series even though we were playing at home. They got away with sri lanka as the previous series would have been more interesting.

4) Dhon's honeymoon seems to be over. You have to play not do hair modelling in cricket. I hopehis dho dala is not restricted to our own "bejaan" tracks cos even hayden will sho daala us on those

5) And as far as wc goes, we have forgotten we still have to reach the finals there, which we did last time. And this team has done nothing to show it has the capability of doing that.

LOL!! but seriously 35-5 is the most humiliating score !!! it looks like some bowlers figures, not a team batting score!!
And we had ppl like sachin, sehwag, dravid, yuvi gone! that was the worst. I just looked at the tv after sachin's dismassal and then yuvi got out..i was wondering if they were playing replays!!??
I totally blame sachin for sehwag's runout, that was pure cowardice and stupidity!!and you would think he'd be guilty and do well, but NO he just gets out!! dada would have done better than these guys.

And if i see one more advertisement with indian cricketers in it i'll burst!! dhoni is already doin ads for 6 products already!! I bet he spends more time styling his hair than at the crease...

Right now the indian team is like a bunch of out of form jokers!! but i think Pathan is a good bowler, for the opposition!

sorry vijj i heard that stuffs on star news....but now i m sorry i did seacrhed and found the information to b wrong........

btw...i dont have any trust in indian team........whtever new sensation we find...........there is not a singlepeice of professionalism left..........

i once wanted to b a cricketer but becoz of all the politics and all i left the stuff.......

shewag was once consider future sachin...now where he lies.........same about dhoni(gilchrist of india)..........but now busy modelling.........getting a ninj frm us(for show off...i m damn sure he would had easily fooled the customs too)........and now pathan(india needs bowler not batsmen now)...........even if india wins wc...i would say a total fluke ..........they come they do modelling shopping and all.....this days also they hardly play full game........ and keeps shouting abt burnout........damn........r u paid lakhs jus to warm chairs or wht?????

sorry totally offtopic stufffrm me.......

but overall i m happy whether its duckworth lewis......or whtever......when team loses....i want to c a professional team rather than one wining on luk.....

arre the problem is we are to be blamed also.. we means media included.
I remember sehwag hit one hundred in windies after like 10 innings and we had all over headlines on how good he is serious is that what we call consistency.
one player scores well in one match out of 10 and we think he is the greatest man ever to play for India. Thats what we have done with dhoni also(whose wicketkeeping incidentally is pedestrian but then he is "dho daala player" and all that he get the ads, goes on in bikes and has forgotten why he is team in the first place.

The indian management sucks these days.. thats all..
