    Funny incidents on the cricket field

    Sohail hardly looked Sheepish. He was being even more of a jerk raising his bat to the crowd while walking back. Such was the intensity.

    Who is the best current International Coach

    No doubt the coach of such a superb team has to be very good, but the work John Wright and now Dav Whatmore are doing is more praiseworthy.

    Like I said we also missed a lot of bowlers, you are going nowhere with this The current WI side is far more useless than the one 2 years ago.

    Who is the best current International Coach

    Yeah and so also Brett Lee who was coming out of injury, that's why he was crap. So were the India bowlers, Zaheer was also making a comeback of sorts and in Melbourne he limped off which handicapped us. Irfan Pathan and Balaji were rookies leading our bowling attack.

    So are Micheal Clarke and Adam Gilchrist. Bu are you telling me Giddins would've used that money for charity and stuff like that? Tendulkar besides the match fees and endorsments even has his own restraunt business, but he also does a lot of charity work...

    But you know how good India are with spinners. Only Murali has given us trouble. Even lowly Indian batsmen can play spin better than many English players. Just to emphasize, macgill was also in among the wickets that year, and he was like it's not that the Indian batsmen don't know what i'm...

    As I said earlier, Warne wouldn't have made much of a difference. And Bracken and Williams were devastating in the tri-series in India just before. McGrath was sorely missed but we also missed a lot of bowlers. Whatever. Try your best to belittle India's performance Read above. How was I...

    Well Bill Gates is still making money! If you were in their position would you not endorse products and make some easy money, I would. And for all you know they may not even use it for themselves, they can use that money for a lot of good work.

    Murali may now tour

    I don't think Murali will have problems with the Aussie crowd anymore, he must've learnt to ignore it by now. :cool:

    And India had their share of injuries too.....we lost Zaheer, Nehra, Harbhajan -our best bowlers then. But it turned out good as Pathan came through.

    As they always emphasise these endorsments are outside ther professional careers. If they have celebrity status what's wrong with making some money? Dravid, SRT, Laxman, Ganguly, Kumble etc. have always played for the team and for the country.

    Who is the best current International Coach

    An attack of Jason Gillespie-Nathan Bracken-Brad Williams-Stuart MacGill was second-string but no piece of cake. Only McGrath would've made a difference, not Warne. And to suit your arguement you will say anything, even that Gillespie was completely out of rythm. From the Melbourne test, Brett...

    LE the Indian players like SRT, Dravid, Laxman, Ganguly etc..have enough money and endorsments, besides they are not so money minded, unlike some charecters like 'Ed Giddins' ;)

    Who is the best current International Coach

    Yeah, poor umpiring decisions and Steve Waugh magic are what saved Australia. I never said India dominated the whole series. In Adelaide we won convincingly and in Sydney we were the better team and more likely to win. In Melbourne we had a fantastic 1st day after which some poor batting cost...

    Who is the best current International Coach

    But were more likely to win...8-) Yeah but it was an even contest between em. England were crushed. Because they are slow and turn. There's nothing for the pace bowlers, which are WI and Pak's forte. And WI will find it tougher to bat against their spinners. And yeah they didn't win. To any...

    Test match attendances

    For a single day's play. It usually comes down to around 10 bucks in the 4th and 5th days unless the match is really engrossing. Sometimes it's even free on the final day. I know movie tickets here are insane, and what's really irritating here is the stupid hike in rates on Saturdays and Sundays...

    Test match attendances

    Mostly Test match tickets in India cost only about ten rupees. And also because some places International cricket is not played very often. So attendance in India is decent.

    It's quality and quantity surely. Anycase again why can't Pathan? And Pathan is also proving himself now. I didn't acknowledge Harmison is proven. He's beginning to find himself only now and he needs to keep this up.

    Who is the best current International Coach

    Two matches. Adelaide and Sydney. They got us in Melbourne. How many times should this be repeated? Rubbish. Recent performances you are talking about are Bangladesh nearly upsetting Pakistan and the current WI game, both on absolutely lifeless wickets which suits them more than the opposition...

    Who is the best current International Coach

    So why can't Pathan pick up top order players? 8-) You think wrong. Just go read that thread again. Pathan IMO is nowhere near the best in the world and neither is Harmison. And even Harmison is proving himself only now.
