Videocon Cup

Horrible team selection!

The 'cricket expert' Saba Karim on Head lines today also touched thsese points-
Nagative points:
Leaving out Kumble after just one bad performance
Leaving out Balaji who played just 1 match in the SL Tri-Series.
Including Agarkar who has consistantly perfrmed badly.

Positive points:
Venugopal Rao,Suresh Raina & JP Yadhav retained in the squard.
Inclusion if Rudra Pratap Singh.

They left out Kumble to let him focus on test cricket.
Zaheer hasn't been doing so well with the new ball in ODIs. In test cricket he will not have the pressure of trying to keep the runs down early on, so he can get into form.
Balaji-I dunnow. Maybe they want to make him a test specialist? Or something off-field.
Laxman-Useless ODI player as it is. His fielding is bad, and with Dravid and Ganguly, we could do without another sheet-anchor.

Makes sense to me...

I dont see How india Will win this series,but I will be hoping that they will win chances are they will,but New zealand has been in blistering form,,

In the other hand Zimbabwe which seems like will be beaten by any first class team has also have a good chance,

Remember how Bangladesh came back?

Beating such a team as Australia,

This is cricket for you
You never know what happens in cricket even the best teams ends up in the last position.

Bangladesh are better than Zimbabwe currently.

Bangladesh are better than Zimbabwe currently.

Bangladesh is not better then Zimbabwe recently.

dude. Lets all face it. Zimbabwe has the worst team right now for 2 reasons.
1. The whole race issue has changed the midset of all the players and that isnt helping the team to gel.
2. Not all the non white players for zimbabwe are even half as good as any of the rebels.

 

[m_vaughan]

Whatever is the reason. The Bangladesh team that played in England, performed pretty well with a lot of fighting spirit, especially in the one dayers. They also beat Zimbabwe in both test and ODIs.

So Bangladesh are surely better than Zimbabwe at the moment.

Bangladesh is not better then Zimbabwe recently.

Bangladesh beat Australia in that ODI and beat Zimbabwe in the test series. Bangladesh are better.

I feel zimbabwe will play new zealand in the final .
Indians have got no chance.
Lets face it,even if they enter the finals who'll expect them to win ?


Anyhow...will anybody be making a fantasy game for this?

just think before posting something like that !
Zimbabwe would fing it difficult to beat any club side at the moment .

 

[Ryand]

The Kiwis will take this trophy easily.India look like they selected a squad to play zim alone

 

[icyman]

thats why i said that it would be a tough opposition.

Well miracles do happen sometimes, though I doubt it will happen in this series.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Thank heavens for Taibu...
