more suman team india did not win a series against SA in last 3 tours and did not win a match against SA in durban. yesteday SA team played a better cricket and give them full credit for accurate bowling supported by superb fielding. sA team derseved a victory
the defeat was expected for team india and did u criticise team when team lost matches in previous tours?? team ind lost 9 matches out of 12 but do team really deserve such biased criticism just b''cuz ganguly is out and dravid made captain???
what a hyporcracy??? ( Posted: Friday , November 24, 2006 at 12:21 )       
Samy "Two minutes maggy noodles !" This is how the performance of our Team India while chasing the opposition score can at best be exemplified.
Our team has undoubtedly embarked on the oddessey of shameless journey of accepting defeats where the bujj word is "Blame it on Rio".
In recent times after every defeat the instant & spontaneous response of Mr Wall, Captain Team India is "Pitch was erroneous, our batsman & bowler failed to overpower the opponents". What a graceful & sporting way to camouflage one''s own & team members deficiencies!
This Team India is certainly on the verge of extinct courtsey Mr Coach, Cricketing Guru of India.
But then who cares! After all right from coach to captain to administrators all are experimenting themselves at the cost of the emotions, passion & money of milions and millions of cricket lovers.

more Narayanan Repeated comments, outrageous criticism and blatant brick bats. Enough is enough all those who criticise lets all put our efforts on to give some thing more strategic, some useful tips and suggestions more constrcutive than "bring bak ganguly", "sack Greg chappel", "prepare pacy tracks at home" kind of.

We have had tours earlier to these pacy tracked nations, our bowlers have done well our batters have done well (atleast much better than the falling nine pins as it was in durban).

The team is no lacking in talents Kaif has it, raina has it, Mongia has it Dhoni has it. May be it is just that they have forgetten the fact that they are talented ( we need to do a la Jambavan reminding Hanuman of his skills).

Wake up guys remember how you lifted the cup at lords, how you fought back in the natwest final, remember how you slaughtered all the teams in the 1985 series and how you gave the aussies run for money in their backyard.

We arent a team to lose as bad as this. ( Posted: Friday , November 24, 2006 at 10:33 )       
more Cricketcoach Its high time we bury the ghost of ganguly. He could not do much and to say he was a great captain is a myth. Look at his record and you will see. He was lucky that he had Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman, even shehwag in great form. If these guys start making runs then give captaincy to sharad pawar and he will also a great record as a captain. The fact that our batters are hyped up beyond their abilities. We never played well on bouncy pitches or moving/seaming ball. We need knee high bounce wickets, wickets that are slow and any ranji dada can just drive throught he line even the fastest bowlers. The domestic cricket is suffering as none of these so called stars play domestic cricket.

Untill inidians stop following this team and so their market value goes down, things will not improve. What difference it makes whether india wins or loses, we stll get large audience following thes emorons on tv, so the fault is with us, stop watching these losers

Soham Two series on flat tracks and everything will be forgotten . 91 , is well , completely hopeless . They looked like a bunch of amateurs out there . No stomach for fight . And raina and mongia .As sunny gavaskar had said "Some pretenders will be found on this tour" .Looks like We have already found a couple of them .I hope they proove me wrong .
