Australia in India

[Leggie]

Leave WORLD_CHAMPIONS alone. He is free to choose whoever he wants to support. It'd be a bit silly that one is forced to dedicate all his passion to a team to which the only reason for supporting is the fact that you're born their or other certain factor. You're free to support whoever you want. The number of times you point this out is rather annoying. Nightprowler has mentioned this before, and I will again....leave it.


Don't know about that. Many times they've been absolutely whacked. Sourav is the only one with some sort of consistency on the bowling front.

Alright then, get Sourvav to bowl 10 overs straight...

Will be a tough call for Dhoni to pick the XI next game. He seems happy to give youngsters a chance, though, so we may see Badri come in for someone for the sake of rotation. I hope we do--I really wanna see how good a batsman Badri is.

Unfortunately I have a midterm the morning after the match starts (the match starts 10.30 pm my time) so I won't be able to see too much of it.

I have a midterm the same morning too. 10:30pm? where do you live? USA?

I feel the team is going to be almost unchanged unless Dhoni decides to rest a senior. I feel Sreesanth can come in for Zaheer who needs a rest and rotation. Sree will also give the attack a different angle rather than an all left arm attack.

The old man gets off the field every 20 minutes; I doubt it's possible !

Who is that 'old man'????

Bat first and win the match is the mantra so far. I hope we win the toss for the remaining part of the series.

Yeah, chasing seems to have so much pressure in India...I don't know why.

I'm sure the BCCI will manage to give all calls to dhoni from now on, and give him double headed coins eh?
He'll probably pick tails

Sreesanth clapped in Symond's face after his dismissal in Chandigarh ODI

Is this true? Did this incident happen? If yes, then its totally stupid of Sree to do it and he must be given a show down by the captain and manager. It has been Sree who had said that all his behavior is restricted to the field. And he didnt play the ODI in Chandigarh, and this shows that he takes this behavior to out of the field also.

But not sure if this is true!

 

[Cricketman]

Yeah, I saw the highlights and I saw Symonds yelling at someone as he was walking off...

Its okay when he is bowling but this is just retarded.

 

[prarara]

Just saw the highlights again. Hayden played really well. Should've gotten the MOTM in my book. He's in really good form; in fact, I'd say he's better than Ponting.

Crappy stuff! Sreesanth needs to then be dropped for 4-5 matches by the team management itself. This is just NOT ON!

Seems true to me. Iam waking up and reading this in the West Australian newspaper right now!

This is ridiculous, he really needs to shut his mouth and keep his antics to himself and his team. He wasn't even playing in the damn match! Seems like Stuey Clark came to the rescue and made sure nothing happened as Symonds tried to shoo Sree with his bat.

Even if you could that leaves no plan B. Better to treat the part-timers as part-timers than to make it essential that they bowl. They are always more use when they are under no pressure.

Sreesanth has well and trully crossed the line now with his childish behaviour. You Indian fans ought to be ashamed of his antics.

how funny was it the other game when Sreesanth dropped an absolute sitter of a caught and bowled...what a tool.

Get out of here.. I swear the Australian team are the biggest hypocrits in the world.. All Sreesanth said was "Hard luck, you're going to lose now," .. how on earth is there anything wrong with that.. Aussies say far worse things than this and they call it "good banta" and when Sreesanth says something that really isnt that bad you guys are all over him.. Leave him alone jeez

Are you ashamed of your players who have done far worse things?
just grow up
