    Symonds racially abused vs India 5th ODI

    My freind went to the Indian series of Australia in 1999, he told me that almost evrey single Indian players who was standing on the boundry or came in to bat was racially abused by the Aussie crowd, this was during the Melbourne match. Some Indian fans are idoits, I wish they stop doing...

    Your Cricket Cricket Bats; Playability or Looks?

    I need some of your opinions on what bat do some of you recommend to me. I'm not a strong guy with average height. I'm a flexable and adaptable batsmen, sometimes I open the innings to get the team off to a good start, dont try to lose my wicket and stay at the crease for as long as I can...

    ESPN's Legends of Cricket?

    Since 2002?, Lara just came out of bad form and Ponting started to look good, Ponting went even better during the years passed. Pontign was'nt the best batsmen in 2002 and 2003 it was either Tendulkar or Lara. Tendulkar started off well in his career, got better and better, he held his...

    Yes Ponting is the best batsmen now no doubt, M Yousuf is coming alarmingly to take the title. Ponting's been the best batsmen since around 2005, but before that it was all about Tendulkar and Lara, they overshadowed evreyone. Ponting is in the greatest form of his life, whilst Tendulkar is in...

    That's true. And how many hundreds did Ponting make when Wasim and Waqur was at their peak?

    Your Favourite World Cup

    2003............simply becuase it was memrable for India although we lost in the final, India gave it their all but they fell short, it was memrable. Before the world cup many Indian world cup fans were upset basically due to India's disasterous tour of New Zealand, beaten very easily in the...

    ESPN's Legends of Cricket?

    Wrong! Any team in the world would like to have Ponting, Gilchrist, Symonds, Hayden and Clarke in their team. Dravid might, but out of form Sehwag, Laxman and Dhoni no chance. India are prone to collapsing, and many Indian batsmen are inconsistant and unreliable. As you seen many me in the...

    You dont make sense mate. Tendulkar's pressure is not overrated and its not hype. Just go back to the 2003 world cup, India started very bad to their world cup campaign, the fans back home threw brikcs at Kaif's, Rahul Dravid and Tendulkar's house, but their was extra pressure on the...

    ESPN's Legends of Cricket?

    You should have looked how India performed without Tendulkar in the 90s, India could rarely win without him, the Indian team was almost like Bangladesh. Tendulkar had enormous pressure on his shoulders from his own players and fans. nealrly evreytime he walked to his crease, Tendulkar had...

    Cricket God is talking about Sachin in the 90s, that time India was a poor team, terrible overseas, you should look at Sachins 99/00 tour of Australia to give you a clue what Sachin had to cope with in most of the 90s, and yes Dravid, Ganguly and Laxman was playing then. Tell me one innings...

    Tendulkar as faced the new ball all his life, I cannot see how you can see Tendulkar as a flat track bully when he as scored runs all over the world, correct me if I am wrong, but he has scored 4 100s in Aus, 3 in Sa and 3 in Eng all agaisnt good bowling attacks, and tough conditions. All...

    Yes I too think it is a bit 'dodgy', but its a tough call. Espn legnds of cricket was made in 2002 I think, back then it was all about Lara and Tendulkar. Ricky Ponting as been in the form of his life, he has'nt faced a lot of pressure. Ricky as never faced his own bowling, yet he struggled...

    West Indies in India

    I agree, Piyush Chawla is a better bowler, feilder and batter then Powar. Kumble is a attacking, economical, expierenced, and a match-winning bowler. In a world cup you need a spinner who is expierenced, Kumble has played in 3 world cups, we all know what Kumble can do, he has won mathes for...

    West Indies in India

    Powar is a good odi bowler, but he is slow in the outfeild and running between the wickets, he has missed some simple caught and bowled chances, and he has let some 4's go, his dive is slow and jerky, from what I've seen in the WI series. Kumble is expierenced, he has played in 3 world cups...

    Yuvraj set to make India return

    Yuvraj is one of India's key batsmen, he is a matchwinner, he can stay at the wicket and up the tempo when needed. He has rescued India countless times, I would say he is Indias 3rd best odi batsmen after Tendulkar and Ganguly. Another advantage to the team is he is a very good feilder, we need...

    MS Dhoni-Hack or Star?

    Dhoni is a star, but he is better suited for odi cricket. Karthik is a better keeper/batsmen then him, Karthik should be wicketkeeper for India in tests and should play purely as a batsmen in odis. Kathik has got a better technique and is more talented then Dhoni.
