    Do you think India is an entertaining team or a boring team?

    Post here and give your reasons why

    Personally I think there one of the most entertaining teams out there, stylish, flamboyant, powerful and sometimes chaotic in the field!

    Very entertaining indeed!

    In the one day games I think that they are quite entertaining. They certainly have a lot of fire power in their batting. The bowling is probably not as good.

    However when it comes to the tests I think that they can be boring. Away from turning pitches the bowlers struggle and the batsmen, Dravid in particular, can be very slow. I think if they played more attacking shots then their test record would improve.

    I guess india is one of the top entertaining teams. excellent batsmen. our batting seems to rain runs...and surprise the bowling does the same too

    We tend to snatch defeat from victory and vice versa (usaually only the former !)

    which team provides so much excitement :P

    I also find that some of the most entertaining games are played by Australia or India. I am increasingly finding the NZ games pretty exciting also.

    Totally with that!! I have always enjoyed India v Aus the most, even though we loose most of the time, there sure is a twist or turn.. How many close finishes! The tied test, two one run wins, the 2001 series... well that just prooves it!

    i reckon that india are exciting to watch. plenty of runs around when india play- their bowlers give loads away and their batters make loads.
    life's a gift thats why they call it the present

    As entertaining as a Kebab in Long Eaton high street on saturday night.

    Now that's entertaining.
