That's just about the stupidest thing I've heard in the last two days on this forum.NikhilN said:

Fine knock, maybe, but it was made when the game was gone and there was nothing to play for. Out of curiosity, how many decent contributions has he made when the chips were down? I remember in a ODI last season in the VB series when he played a pretty good knock. Decent half century, and was pretty quick too.marc71178 said:
But what's the point in giving him credit for trying to slog the Aussie bowlers around when the game is all but lost? I didn't see him do much in the first innings to help out the Indians when the game was still alive.
I see your point and I agree Chopra hasn't done very well, he's just as disappointing as Yuvraj. I dont understand why they're overlooking people like Gambhir and Jadhav for the opener's slot. As for Parthiv, People dont like Parthiv because he's been given two years to improve and he hasn't. I've yet to see a great performance from him as a wicketkeeper. i think a keeper should be able to keep. Parthiv would have to get atleast a fifty in every match he plays in order to make up for the byes and dropped catches. Believe it or not, there are a couple of people in domestic cricket who can do the job well. I just dont see the harm giving Dinesh Karthik or even MS Dhoni a chance, that's all.Sanz said:Another one wanting Parthiv's head. Can you tell us what has Chopra done as an opener, Even Parthiv has better better than him ? If not for his wicket keeping skills, Parthiv can replace Chopra as a batsman on any given day at any batting position whereas Chopra will have a tough time replcing Parthiv even on his best day.
Congrats to the Aussies for winning the series, they definitely outplayed the indians, to say the least. But I'm king of disappointed because this was supposed to be "the battle of the giants" but it turned out to be a battle between a giant and a midget. O well, I'm looking forward to the Ashes.

india could never save the game nikhil. their batting line up is good at best but when they are such mental wrecks then of course they are going to crumble.... Chennai last time was different. the way they were bowling in aussies second innings it was clear they knew they were going to lose. they had no belief...
congrats to all of the indian supporters on ur attitude. u have all been marvellous....
