ravi shastri continues to be the dangerman! whenever he praises any batsman or india, we lose an wkt in the next over.

someone should lock him up for the duration of the match.

^^^ Gujarat has a decent foothold in Oz mining industry. Curiously enough, Adani group also wanted to sponsor the Sheffield shield.

TI will lose onlee.

No CT. I see no possible reason for them to be picked. Nehra I would give the benefit of doubt before the SA match, but persisting with Munaf and Chawla? Munaf is supposed to be a mainline bowler but he could not bowl his full quota today! Shreesanth could not have possibly been worse.
so you are privy every little thing that goes on in the Indian dressing room ? it was reported that sree refuses to bowl according to team plan, a captain is within his rights to pick a less talented bowler he can trust isn't he ?
heck, forget that, one bowler goes at 10.6 RPO off 5 overs against BD (a batting line up that gets bundled for 58 and 78 in the same ground) and another gives away runs at 6.5 RPO off 7 against world champions australia. on numbers alone who is the better bowler ?
frankly, we are not aware of 1% of the reasons and factors team management takes into consideration. and when it comes to sree V munaf or nehra there's not much to choose. we can disagree with their choice but let's stop inventing strange theories.

as for chawla, I think MSD has made it clear that he was trying out chawla to build bench strength and uswin was always going to get a match and he did.

OK, have your opinions. I'm done.

What lesson

He could have said the ball bounced. He pretended to not know.

one better than blidingly claiming that he has taken it cleanly, to be fair to him the way he dived one cannot be sure about the bump

SwamyG · Post by **SwamyG** » 24 Mar 2011 19:26

You are being too fair. That bounced at least at least 6" to 8" {or say a foot} before his diving self, it is not like it bounced millimeters before his fingers.

As Gawd says in the commercial "Banish the Excuses"

rvishwak · Post by **rvishwak** » 24 Mar 2011 19:26

^^^ must be afraid due to the presence of certain modi in the stands

rvishwak · Post by **rvishwak** » 24 Mar 2011 19:28

you might be right as he was facing the ball during the dive, can sense bumps

Man, Ganbir looks very shaky. The next 15 overs or so will determine the winner. Very tense game on the cards.

KJo · Post by **KJo** » 24 Mar 2011 19:41

It's 77 right now. These 2 should take it to 150 without losing a wicket for us to be comfortable.
