Well so far anyway.

Tonight they will have a chance at redemtion and to slay some of the demons lingering from the world cup final.
Can they do it?

The pitch is fantastic,Katich walked out of the dressing room and was smashing it about immeidiatly.
India have the players but the pressure will probably be too much.

You are one hell of an optimist.

Good Luck man

No way will India get those runs. No way in hell.

BTW, I see 'sperm' is somehow categorised a swear word here? Amazing.

masterblaster · 08-02-2004, 12:09 AM

Even if we take sperm from Wasim Akram or Imran Khan, we'll probably have a player who inherits the 'Indian mom's' qualities!

What's the end result?

Another useless Indian bowler

World Cup 2003 - Aus 359/2, VB Final2 - Aus 359/5.

I say - Drop Tendulkar,Sehwag,Pathan,Balaji,Nehra, Ganguly, Make Dravid Captain, VVS Vice Captain and build a team for future. :P

Gaijin-san · 08-02-2004, 12:10 AM

300+ was on on that pitch. I don't think it's nearly on for chasing. The SCG is not a nice place to chase under lights I'm led to believe.

Keep worshipping that Choker 'Tendulkar'. He will *Coughs* Choke *Coughs* again. Another Final, Another choke. Most hyped batsman on the earth. Who needs 13000 runs man, I need a win in the Final. CHOKERS.

Afridi has a better strike rate.

Jono · 08-02-2004, 12:18 AM

Everything went down hill when Agarkar was replaced by Pathan. Sure he isn't the best bowler but I'd rather him in my team any day then Nehra, even if Nehra did bowl well early his fielding was appalling and brings down the team.

Balaji and Pathan are young so I am excusing them currently, but how is India supposed to win a one day series final with Pathan, Balaji, Nehra and Kartik as our strike bowlers? What the hell?

Kumble, Harbhajan, Zaheer and Agarkar were definitely missed, they may not of made too much of a difference to the score line, but damn it at least they look threatening.

harry674 · 08-02-2004, 12:19 AM

of late tendulkar has been out of form. true he has never batted good in any final matches i think.

this will be nice time to reverse things.

Give that guy a break.He hasn't even started the inningns yet and you are already calling him chokers and so.

harry674 · 08-02-2004, 12:20 AM

dont forget

agrakar can bat a bit too....

masterblaster · 08-02-2004, 12:20 AM

May i remind you that form is temporary, class is permanent.

And besides, has your memory failed you?

Where were you all those times Sachin saved our behinds with the bat?

Sharjah?
Dhaka?
Cricket World Cup [1996, 2003 (man of the series)]
ICC Knockout Trophy?

A man with over 13000 ODI runs shouldnt be dropped.

I agree that he needs to fire in the 'big finals', but with a man of his experience and reputation, im sure this very factor is eating him alive.

I have full faith in Sachin, maybe he wont do anything tonight, but I believe he has saved his best until he gets to Pakistan.
