Australia's Tour Of India - 2008

[sohum]

Send Ganguly in too

Let's just send all XI in and intimidate the coin to fall as we call it.

And If it doesn't, we demand the coin to be replaced and respun or else we leave the tour

Sounds like a plan. We can call them whinging Aussies, too, if they disagree with us.

You could almost be Pakistan

If he wants to be at the coin toss, he'd definitely be allowed. I'm not really sure about the significance of it though, really, the toss of the coin isn't something which really requires skill. Watch it in the air, call heads, if it's heads, bat, if not, get ready to bowl, unless they agree to a best of three.

We dont know what's going to hapeen,like Kumble is allowed for toss or not?Or to lift trophy,but really its a good gesture shown by Dhoni,at least he spoke in wish,whether its granted or not,thats another part.But Aus will be definately in pressure to win here and draw the series.

See, there's a flaw in your technique; the trick is to call tails.

But tails always fails...?

Picking my bowling lineup from what we have I'd go
Bollinger
Lee
Clark
Krejza

I know it's harsh dropping Johnson but I feel we need another swing/reverse swing bowler. Could be more accurate than Johnson too. But very little chance of that happening so as long as the 4th guy in the my list is there I'm happy.

 

[nikhil_99]

If Dravid dosent perfrom in last test,possibly he might get ultimatum from BCCI,they will see his performance in 2 test vs Eng,and if he even fails there,the will have to,or he will retire himself.

No Siddle? That's a little harsh since he didn't do anything wrong to get dropped in the first place, losing his place to Stuart Clark.

I doubt it. With Ganguly and Kumble out in quick succession, they will need to tap into the experience of the remaining seniors to ensure the transition of the new spinner (hopefully Mishra) and the new batsman (hopefully Badrinath) is completed properly. Especially so since Badrinath is expected to fill the Dravid void eventually.

 

[zub2005]

looks like h singh will play, but if gambhir is still banned who will take his place, has there been any news.

 

[deerkick]

Gambhir lost the appeal. So Badrinath will play? Big blow for India!!!

Well BCCI trying to appeal AGAIN. I am sick of BCCI trying to bully ICC to get what they want. The guy was found guilty twice by two independent judges , has pleaded guilty to the charge and this is the second time he has done this. If you did the crime , you gotta do the time.

They are just trying to drag this out so Gambhir will be able to play in the next test. BCCI is a joke , absolute disgrace to cricket. What a bunch of cheats.

Vijay called in as cover! Oh YES! He is on fire at the moment, so I feel it is justified, but Aakash Chopra must feel really terrible.
