> Duckworth/Lewis method

quite agreed with safin......it all lies in selection panel......media and all stuffs.......even now mongia was given chance in indian team...whereas all knows in county zaheer khan is ruling(and we need bowlers)......
but media is busy in minting money for their channels and papers......also the bcci have arranged this malasyia series jus to mint money for itself.......ther is not single peice of professionalism left
i m myself waiting for days when players lik of sachin tendulkar caliber are told prove yourself in local cricket (to re enter team)...rather than net practice........where again on luk u score century again week bowling line up...and than wait 25 matches for the next one(and in btw......6 months down with injury and all)........

Australian team really deserve where they are......when shane warne was ban for 1 year..and he was abt to make direct entry in team....... adam gilchrist gave a statement warny u have to prove in local cricket that u deserve the team spot or else dont dream to b in........and he proved that in local cricket and made re entry ....rather than makinga big issue like sourav...who failedin local+county too)

i dont think there is worldcup chance for india next year oreven after that........unless they be professional.......

Here is the kind of thing that really annoys a fan..

Mr Greg has this to say about our match with Australia:

I hardly consider that to be a match

Oh wow

And now that windies have almost beaten Australi putting India virtually out of the tournament, he will say he hardly though much of this series.
This is classic greg. Discredit the whole thing if it doesn't suit you.

Good one Safin!! totally agree with u! "This is classic greg. Discredit the whole thing if it doesn't suit you."

man all we have now is a team of worthless untalented "players" under a "coach" who does not consider the games lost as "matches"

... in that case we havent played a cricket match in a long time.

Safin

hehe
i hope the champions tropy is worthy of qualifying his high standards.
Incidentally India has to face Australia there quite early in a Knockout match.
