Apparently Yuvraj might open tmrw. I'd rather have Mukund open, but if Yuvraj does, it would be great for entertainment purposes.
Of course the best scenario would be Sehwag doing a WWE style shock entry. :yes
Reason: Terrorist attacks on India, Harboring Osama (or being incompetent enough to not catch him in the military's backyard), attack on SL cricket team
Precedent: US and USSR boycotting each other's Olympics in 80 and 84 for less legitimate reasons than India has now.
Fact is, if...
Joke?
Olympic Games scandals and controversies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
US boycotted USSR in 1980 (to protest their invasion of Afghanistan) and USSR boycotted US in 1984 ("security issues").
India has more legitimate reasons now not to have sporting relations with PAK than US...
^Athleticism epitomized^
(BTW, the cricket vs NFl argument is stupid. They require different types of athleticism. Football requires you to be big, strong, and fast, while cricket is mainly about hand-eye coordination and concentration. You cant really compare them.)
Cook criticized SL for going slow to let Chandimal get his 100 in the 3rd ODI, and I was gonna blast him today if he also did the go-slow to get his century, but he didn't. Hats off to him for being a man and sticking to his word.
Still doesnt make sense. If AUS 07-08 were at 143, wouldn't the other AUS teams from 2006 to 2008 also be on the list (considering those were all probably at least in the 130s)?
Why couldnt they keep the 10-team format and make the last 2 spots qualifying spots? (The top 8 Test teams would automatically qualify). Or at least make it 12 teams. Didnt this year's WC prove that 14 teams is too many? Only Ireland really competed with the top 8.
And why is the T20 12 teams...
Actually, I'd say India is perfect right now in terms of watchability. We're the best in the world (or at worst, among the best), but were not so good that it gets boring like 00s AUS or 80 WI.
1. Being cheap (leaving 2 million out of 9 on the table)
2. Getting Cameron White instead of ab De Villiers.
3. Spending 900 K on Dan Christian that coudve been spent on, say Zaheer Khan.
4. Inability to lure the local bastmen (Rayudu, Suman).
That last one can be forgiven, the first 3 can't.
VVS Laxman- 7903 Test Runs
Entire Pakistan Team- 6999 Test runs
Test Series Wins in WI:
Bangladesh- 1
Pakistan- 0
On topic, it was a good win for WI, but I'd like to see them beating the big nations again, not just the minnows. And for Pakistan, all is not lost, the Hong Kong sixes...
Rayudu was the 8th highest scorer in the Ranjis and scored at an average of 57. Saha isn't anywhere to be found. Rayudu is also playing very well in the IPL, Saha isn't even playing.
If it's not because Saha'a a CSK player, I'd like to know the reason, because Im baffled.
Oh, here are the...
I remember some Pakistani member on here called me a Nazi for saying Pakistan harbored terrorists (think it was insonmiac, but not sure).
What now?????? :p
How a team can go from needing 95 off 80 with 10 wickets in hand to losing by 20 is beyond my level of thinking.
This was a Bangladesh type performance, really. No one except Sohal even went after the target.
Oh, I'd also like to take some space to bash our management some more:
