Sorry, maybe you're still in the Delhi test. Our captain here at Nagpur is DHONI!
42 runs off 24 overs??? Thats below 2 runs per over. You guys who were watching it should have been bored.
Bad tactics from India, and before jkartik says you didnt take his name, I would say from Dhoni also. You just cant waste time like that. We have been the dominant team of the series, and inspite of a few rare good days from Australia, we should come out next day batteries charged up and looking to get wickets. I might not have expected from Kumble, but coming from Dhoni its surprising. BUT AGAIN, Dhoni has shown in his captaincy that he can be a good positive captain, and so this can be forgiven from him.

The game is going nowhere. We got about 40 runs from that session. Clarke has to play few shots and get the scoreboard going or we can say goodbye to BG trophy. What a farce.
I heard Khan had a bit to say to Katich after his dismissal (I missed it). He is the biggest frontrunner in cricket. He was wicketless for about 3 innings , bowl 2 metres outside the off stump all morning , finally get the guy who has made a ton and still decides to run his mouth off at the bastman. Classy stuff Zaheer.
One more thing. If this is the Indian attitude to cricket , they will NEVER take over OZ as the best team in the world. When we are dominating cricket we never settle for draws , or winning 1-0.We wouldve tried to absolutely smash the other team and try to win 2-0 or 3-0. But India are more than happy with 1-0 win from what I can see. India are just a team full of champion players and if this their attitude they will never be a champion team.

We havent been the defensive team for the majority. You guys have been the masters of it this series. STOP THE CRAP!!!! The country that has the 'so-called' perfect system that churns out quality cricketers is now struggling to maintain the same intensity that once saw them virtually being the unbeatables. One session or a few sessions of negative tactics doesnt spoil the surge towards being a champion team. The only side that has made Australia blink in an eye to eye confrontation is INDIA. And now you guys say that you are not so dominant, blah blah blah.....

Did you know what he said?? Maybe he said something in frustration? You guys are clearly perturbed by Zaheer's 'in-your-face' attitude and so whatever he does, you guys say nonsense.

Mate you guys are dominating this series. You got better batsmen (in India) and much much better bowlers and playing at home against a team in a transition phase. If you wanna be like Australia you should really smash us. I know when Aus are dominating we rarely let the other team get off the hook like this. If you are happy just beating us , fine thats your choice. But from what I can see, you just dont have the ruthlessness or that killer instincts that made us such a great side in the last 15 years.

Yeah but when he hasnt done anything for about 2 weeks , its bit silly. I mean its not like he got Katich out for a duck or something. The guy just made a ton , show some respect. I dont care about him saying anything , but he always wait for someone to get out before deciding to say anything. Thats soft no matter how you look at it. If you have something to say , fine just say it to his his face like a man when hes still batting. But Zaheer is acting like a little girl. Coward.
We crushed you and stomped over you in Mohali by 320 runs on a good batting wicket (it was good even on the 5th day). Both innings, we literally destroyed you. Whats ruthless is in the eye of the person seeing it. I have definitely changed my opinion that Krejza got his wickets more because of the Indian batsmen being too positive against him. And with the kind of respect Bhajji and Mishra have been treated with, I think they are not able to do anything on this wicket. But I would not throw in my prediction of our becomign a champion side on just a few sessions. THATS BULL CRAP!
On the Zaheer thing, Lot of teams have done it. Could be in frustration, or could be due to something that we really dont know. Bring us evidence of microphone recordings, and we will take the argument forward. AND AUSTRALIA HAVE NO RIGHT TO USE THE WORD 'COWARD' WHEN THEY HAVE A CERTAIN COWARD WHO BOWLED AN UNDERARM BALL to win a game. And that guy is now assisting you in the dressing room (Assisting in your downfall!)

Yep, Zaheer is officially a hypocrite. I hope Hayden takes the end of day press conference.

Well if you think you guys are a champion team , you dont have to play this type of cricket. You would back your bowlers to rip through our batting line up. Winning 1 or 2 games doesn't make you a champion team. You guys lost to Sri Lanka and we beat you at home (thats 2 losses in about 6 months). Compare that to a real champion team - Aussies lost 2 series in about 12-13 years when we were dominating. Can you see any difference ?
