    *Official* Australia in India - ODIs

    Hmm when I was in India last, Munaf used to bowl around 145-150. And Ishant was around 146 in the series against Australia here last year. So is Tyagi bowling at 150 or have Munaf and Ishant dropped their pace?

    *Official* Australia in India - ODIs

    The Indian team looks to be in trouble with Dhoni & Yuvi not sure to play the first game. Probably means Karthik and Kohli will get to play. IMO 1. If the pitch is not going to assist and spinners are going to go for runs then you might as well have an extra batsman. 2. If its going to assist a...

    *Official* Australia in India - ODIs

    I agree with you here however I don't think the series result will be a 7-0. They did not have their two of their best ODI batsmen in SA, which they will now. If nothing else they get a pschological boost. I dont think they are that dire. Sehwag is pretty underrated, probably better than the...

    *Official* Australia in India - ODIs

    Did not see the match but am assuming that this was a SA pitch that did not do much for spinners.

    *Official* Australia in India - ODIs

    The logic is this, if you dont have enough good all rounders and your bowling is a bit weak you play more batsmen so that you can chase whatever is set. IMO Mishra is too poor with the bat to include as a bowler. We already have Munaf who is at least 8 runs minus in the field and a zero with the...

    Without the IPL you don't have the Indian teams, and therefore no tournament.

    Younis Khan resigns to protest match-fixing accusations

    Don't you have to examine evidence before you declare that there is no evidence?? You can't just summarily dismiss it. Well in that case the ICC should have just ignored the accusation from a moronic source. You can't acknowledge the accusation and then dismiss it without an examination. This...

    Younis Khan resigns to protest match-fixing accusations

    In his article Stupidity of staggering proportions Osman Samiuddin talks about "And now many will make the lazy assumption, pointing to Younis' previous with captaincy, his ethnicity, and tut-tut and say that he has done "a Younis", that he is emotional, temperamental and all that." Younis is...

    Younis Khan resigns to protest match-fixing accusations

    Firstly lets discount what the Australian players and the Indian media have to say about this as they are both involved parties. The Australian players would like to believe that the match they won was because they played well and not because the Pak players were not giving a 100% effort. The...

    Younis khan the great???????????

    Questioning his captaincy means not liking him. I mean who is better suited to be the pakistani captain right now? Its not as if he has taken a job that should belong to someone else.

    Younis khan the great???????????

    Compared to Inzy I guess anyone could be called an attention seeker, but I remember the earlier Pak captains Wasim, Latif, Moin, Miandad & Imran used to be pretty chatty with the press or appeared to be chatty. I would say that Akhtar should be the standard for an attention seeker. Anybody less...

    BCCI rejects 'whereabouts' testing

    I don't know what the WADA is trying by roping the Indian government in, as the BCCI is not answerable to the indian government, at least not on Cricket.

    India shot down Test championship

    Read the FTP whichever way you like, see how many times each individual country was visited and compare that to the subcontinent tours. The war on terror started in october 2001, any reasons why Pakistan was not popular before that?
