Say Hello to the No.1 Test team in the World

[Highlander999]

I know Common sense in that case is needed

Talking of India not touring SA,Aus,England that often, we toured all of them just over a year and a half ago. As per the FTP tours repeat themselves over a 4 year cycle. However, I don`t remember Sri Lanka touring SA anytime in the recent past or for that matter England in the recent past (they last toured England in 2005 I guess). In fact, Australia have`nt toured Sri Lanka since 2004 as well.
Noone pointed that out.

Trust me, no one is even gonna talk about it. Attacking India is a favorite passtime for some chaps and when it comes to their country, they just won't revert back.

People, like I've said before, lets respect each others' opinion. Going on a personal vendetta against a country and its people is a bit naive .

Aditya has made a great point here. If everyone doesn't feel shy about while pointing out stuff w.r.t India, why do they turn shy while talking about stuff related to their own team? Lets be fair.

And Reps for you my friend.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. Yes we've heard it all before from you, everyone hates India and likes to paint them in a bad way. Stop bringing ████ like that up and maybe you'll notice it a little less, bringing it up in every post is only going to make things worse.

Exactly, I've stayed quiet for a few days, but you haven't changed your tune RDF, you are just trying to get into fights with people, and it is always about how poor old India is getting bullied by all the evil non Indian members here.......

I talk as I see it. I believe I have as much of a right to express my opinion as you do, no matter how ████ both our opinions might be

Well, I will state my opinion honestly and I believe people may have a problem with it. Privately though, everyone likes them. Indian or not, black, blue, purple, pink.... as long as it is civil, everyone likes a good jibe

 

[Owzat]

Everyone knows the ICC rankings are severely flawed. Gazza raises a very valid point

They're not "severely flawed", they are near enough pointless. It's about time they had a proper championship, made the sides play each other home and away in equal proportions and it meant something. These days England seem to play windies every other series and beat them, it doesn't boost our rankings and it is annoying because it boosts individual averages and I reckon hinders our overall progress (more like regression than progression)

Are India REALLY the #1 side in the world?!? Beggars belief

Privately? Everyone likes it? I am pretty sure everyone is fed up of you baiting everyone about India. I mean for Sohum to start taking your points apart shows that, as he generally stays clear of all this sort of stuff.

Talking about changing tunes, I don't think your tune has changed much actually. I believe Aditya has a point there; why does no one talk about Australia not touring Sri Lanka or SL touring SA?

I'm sure everyone is pretty fed up with all this. They choose to talk about this through PMs and it is their choice really. Doesn't make "some people" right, does it? :sarcasm

As for Sohum, well he had a point, and it was taken. He spoke sense and rather than investing time twisting and turning it and making it look like something else, I'm sure it can be learnt from.

Now lets get back to the topic, now do you want me to link you to the rule :P?

If India wins this test, which I'm confident we will, we will really make a statement in terms of consistency atleast. Its a far-cry from the team we used to have before and consistency is the name of the game . Dhoni has really turned this team around

Added a poll

 

[BKB1991]

What!? No Pakistan in the Poll? Are we that good?

 

[TumTum]

Stupid poll, everyone will vote for their own country.


Where's the option "nobody"?

Well, not every Australian will pick Australia and not every Indian will pick India. There are people who will vote for the deserving team.

You wanna vote for "nobody"? I believe abstinence will mean you voted for "nobody"

What!? No Pakistan in the Poll? Are we that good?

Oops. Is it possible to edit a poll?

 

[mdoggie]

Well, not every Australian will pick Australia and not every Indian will pick India. There are people who will vote for the deserving team.

When the decision is between teams which are very close, bias will often be the determining factor. Like it or not but bias is key when making a judgement.

beating SA and AUS at home is not the Topic..

We almost won the Test Series in Aussie By Winning in Perth and By Losing In Sydney Due To Shameful Underserved Cheater Aussie Cricketer's Escpecially Pointing and Symonds...

In South Africa.. May Be We can try hard with this team in later 2011 but i do not think
Dravid Laxman will still exist..

People say India play at pitches that are favourable to them.. But India Tour SA and Aussie.. the pitches are Favourable to them...
That is why it's called Home and Away Series

People should not be Writing PITCHES FAVOURABLE TO INDIANS

It's all about Home and Away..

Srilanka have the Highest Run Scorer This Year In Test As Samaraweera...

They have played NZ,WI,Bang,Ind and Pak Much.. But they have won and kept themselves In Race,..

Aussie Beat England 5-0 in Ashes whcih is the most Inconsistant team and Sl is way better then them...

Aussie Lost to India at away..

Lost to SA at Home.. They had to win Away series but no use..

Yes SA do not tour and play much around the year but they too have faced Mostly England,NZ and Aussie.. None of the Asian Teams Much for a yeaar or so..


Aussie tooo Play Windies for 3 test and then Media abuse them... Aussie play NZ and win as NZ are also not a good test side... Aussie Play Bang... where they almost lost 1 test match... but Gillespi's Double Hundred Saved them..

Aussie's are the only team who have been defeater Many times By Bangladesh...

Aussie Playing Pakistan for 3 Test After WI.. and will win.. But NO USE..

So do not tell Srilanka Do not play competetive cricket:

Aussie SA also do not play... They tour the same nation as India and Srilanka are doing now
