    Nah. India's selection policy is based on a long hair requirement. Once Dhoni trimmed his it was inevitable that Zaheer got injured and Sharma got picked.

    A Tribute To Adam Gilchrist

    Without sounding like a broken record, Gilchrist was an absolute legend - swashbuckling with the bat, extremely good keeper and without a shadow of a doubt the best there is in combining the two. Easily my favourite Australian player (Huss comes close), conducted himself wonderfully on the...

    Tsonga :-O :-O :-O :-O :-O :-O :-O :-O :-O Toyed the world's best claycourter like a rag doll. Some of the shots he came with were unbelievable. I reckon he has the game to beat Djokovic and push Federer.

    ***Official*** Commonwealth Bank Tri-Series 2007-08

    Whoa. Chill out fellas. There's only a couple of mistakes I see with the squad chosen for the ODI's, it should have been Kaif for Sehwag and Badrinath for Gambhir (arguable.) Aside from that I'm happy with the squad and it gives us a chance to experiment with the kids and see how life's like...

    Love the umpire in this game. Neither player trusts his calls and have been challenging him a few times in this set. Fair enough too, the guy looks like Afroman's cousin who has just woken up from a drug induced stupor.

    Haha. So we started with Karthik, climaxed at Tendulkar and ended with Pathan. You two are probably the most respected Indian viewpoints on this forum but Pathan opening up both batting and bowling is a bit of a worry, frankly. Don't want him to be overcooked when he comes out to bowl.

    Interesting lineup you got there. Tendulkar opening is something I've certainly not given any thought too but on the face of it, it looks pretty solid with both Laxman and Dravid being reluctant to open and Ganguly a bit dicey with the new ball. Tendulkar is a fantastic team player and if the...

    The 4 pace idea - proven to be not good ?

    Expresses my sentiments exactly. Hilf or Bracken would have been a better pick

    Geez. Seriously, get a grip. Australia are the world's best team - they have won 16 in a row. No one gave India a chance to win here (even me - thought the bowling attack was too inexperienced.) India defied all expectations and won. Don't u think it's a chance to celebrate ??

    Predictions for India vs Australia 3rd Test

    Interesting.. Considering it's nearly a world record chase - the results so far have been only 60-40 to India. Would be interesting to see what the poll outcome would be if the tables were switched and India chasing 413. Think it would be 90-10 Australia
