    India in England/Ireland/Scotland

    So another day of Garbage. Doesn't look like India has a chance at all unless Ganguly and Karthik can both score 100s. It was encouraging to see them turning the singles at the end of the day so maybe thats a good sign. Anyway, we will find out in a few hrs.

    Man. I am so dissapointed. I really wanted Sachin to get a hundred in his last Lord's Test match. Oh well. Maybe it wasnt meant to be.

    England vs India test series - Test 1

    If only I had picked strauss over cook and jaffer over karthik. man. I went wrong this time on both openers. In any case Sreesanth did well for me in the end. Now I have to hope that Sachin and Sourav can come up big for me. If they dont then I dont have a chance.

    Man. Im gone for the 4 hours that play happens and all the scenarios out the window!! What an amazing collapse. I suppose the conditions became too good for the seamers. I think it is safe to say that we have a match now. I am hoping Sachin will come up big.

    England vs India test series - Test 1

    pretty odd day for me. I picked cook over strauss so at the moment its a bad choice. My allrounder got a wicket. As an Indian fan though its just a horrible day for me!!!\ EDIT: Just as I say that Strauss goes to Kumble!! FInally a bowler gets a wicket!

    No one said cricketers in all international teams are millionaires. We cant even think about comparing cricket to football in terms of player salaries. However the complaint many cricketers for ireland and Scotland had was that they were getting paid more playing for county than what they got...

    Would be nice to bowl one into his chest. He would already be half way down!

    England vs India test series - Test 1

    I havent had much success with Fantasy so after a long break which was before the world cup, im picking a team full of maybes. Lets see if I get lucky this time!

    agreed. the blame is with the ICC and ICU. If the players got paid more they would never leave their country. They aren't greedy, they just want to make a living and they cant do it part time! It was dissapointing to see Ed Joyce get his nation to the world cup and then play his next match for...

    India in England/Ireland/Scotland

    I feel that this might just be a good match. The bowling "attacks" from both teams are relatively inexperienced. So it will either be a good contest or a boring draw. I dont see the bowlers winning this match for either side since hoggard and harmison arent there. Zaheer and Sreesanth might be...

    Anyone ever been hit by the ball?

    Ive been hit in the face while keeping about 8 yrs back in coaching. The idiot said he was a spinner so I came up figuring the ball doesn't bounce or spin much. Turns out he was a medium pacer. 1st ball beat the bat and my gloves, but ended up below my right eye. Was bleeding for a few...

    Greatest Test XI

    The pressure is only immense if you let it get to you. Why dont we all sit and manufacture robots to play cricket? Cricketers are still Human. And in India the only sport you have is Cricket. In England and Australia you can talk to certain groups of people and they probably will not know the...

    Some great arguments there from andrew. I know its a bit late in the thread, but if people are saying that the ICC should not allow it then there will be a war I tell you. The main problem players have in countries like Ireland and Netherlands is with the money. They do love their cricket, but...

    My Subcontinent 11

    An All time XI for Ind, pak and Sri Lanka would be much easier to name than an all time asian XI. However looking at this team 2 changes can easily be picked out. Malinga: As good as he is now he has not played for long enough to be considered in an all time XI. Ashraful: He can bat. But he...
