Player Year Official Ground

We have the men to tussle with Harbhajan

With the greatest of respect to New Zealand, West Indies and Bangladesh, the truth that the serious 'business' part of our year starts here. I really do have the greatest of respect for the three countries we have played so far this season, but home ground advantage always made us favourites to beat an under prepared New Zealand side and a spirited but young West Indies team. And, while Bangladesh gave us a fright or two on their pitches, we did what we had to do in winning both Tests and all three One-Dayers. Read The Article

vik	Great analysis Mickey.Hope you and your boys enjoy the Indian trip as much as the Indians enjoy having you here :) Cheers! ( Posted: Thursday , March 27, 2008 at 17:47 )
AJIT ANJARIA	If Aussies were criticised for their behaviour on the field we are under some kind of moral pressure to prove the point and with south african attack having no services from their Pollock Indian batsmans should plundder more runs per over and establish our batting superiority, under whatever the situation otherwise cricket lovers who favoured Indian team and backed them in recent times may easily ask themselves ,well let us reexamine the facts.Afterall cricket is a great game and is leveler all the time.

partha biswas	its look lile cool threat by SA coach.but he forget that his first job to make his team to protect indian batsmans and schorching heat in india now, also spin in day 4,5 in each test.he must stop those unneccary talk and think how to prevent his team to white-wash serise now after 1992 when they start playing.

ram panwar	Where is the prejudiced comment against Bhajji, bhai? Suggest you have already made up your mind without looking carefully at the comments made here and seeing thme for what they are worth. There is no hidden agenda, just a factual statement. You are the one with the prejudice, ( Posted: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 at 17:59 )
Roshan	South African side looks preety strong specially with Dale Steyn in form along with Neil Mckeinze and Grame Smith after record breaking opening partnership against Bangladesh.SA is on the top. ( Posted: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 at 07:13 )
Prince	it is true that india have toughened up in the past years. i cant wait to see how this test unfolds as RSA are an extremely good team. if india can beat RSA, then only can we say that india will be No 1. ( Posted: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 at 04:30 )

Amla batting like a magician in this heat and Bhajji battling hard. It''s not prejudice here but a lot of run-scoring. Or do you think that someone as quiet as Amla shouts a urdu explecative everytime he hits Bhajji for a boundary? Get rid of the chip on your shoulder ( Posted by Mahesh on Thursday , March 27, 2008 at 15:22 )   Where is the prejudiced comment against Bhajji, bhai?
