    Rahane should have been in the squad...

    Also Uthappa is not a good choice at all..He has as inconsistent as Rohit..But i believe he can easily win more matches than Rohit when in form..

     

    n Yusuf Pathan is injured FYI..He dint play the final games of the season..

    I think he's yet to recover

     

     

     

    best was three fielders and discussing what they wanna eat for dinner, while they waited for the ball

     

    :lol:

    Best part about Dada's interview was he was direct..

     

    He said If Dhoni is questioning Sachin's place in the ODI team then he should look @ his place in the test cricket..

     

    Also he said u are giving ur youngsters lot of chances but they are averaging 15 in the tour..If you are looking @ 2015 then its a bad idea..

    since Raina totally lacks the technique to play in Aus conditions..Also Rohit has played more than 100 matches and he is very inconsistent...

    The whole rotation policy is absolutely stupid..

    FFS they are representing the country..The 11 best players should be playing in the team..

    Resting Zak was really senseless in a crucial game like this...Also PK hardly got any opportunities..

     

    n Dhoni is obsessed with Jadeja , Even before he made a comeback in eng tour , Dhoni always used to play him..

     

    n Parthiv Patel for ODI's is not a ideal batsman..Even if he palys he has to in the top order which is not possible..I dont understand y they pick him ahead of Saha and Dinesh Kathik..

     

    Looking @ this situation we need Yuvi desperately..He's the only batsman who can stabilize the innings in the middle and also finish the game with Dhoni...

    I predict we get bowled out below 200 today.

     

    Still India has a very very strong chance of winning this series. Remember the tie?

    Dhoni has never lost a series where he was featured in a tie. Be it IPL, Champions League, World cup T20 or ODI WC 2011.

     

    :good:

     

     

    Man of the match: Rohit Sharma :loser:

     

    drops catches; scores 0; and shows oodles of fattitude :doh: Bahar karo namoone ko

     

    He should b dropped for next match..

     

    Dhoni again slow as hell

    18 off 41 retard :doh:

    Test match hai kya

     

    :doh:

    He played like dat in the last 2 matches and won the game..

    what do u expect him to do ?Score 30 from 20 balls and get out

    I think Pathan will open along with Gambhir.

    Sachin will come #3 or #4.

     

    Naaaa....Sachin will open..

    n Whats with u wanting Pathan to open the innings :P

     

    It all depends on God and Gambhir now...If they fail we'll loose for sure..I dont trust Rohit or Raina to win us the match...

    Amazing bowling in the 1st half of the match...

    Pathetic bowling towards the end..

     

    Pathan bowled well in patches but was kinda disappointing...

    VK bowled well 1st 7 overs and leaker lot of runs towards the end...

    Umesh Yadav also gave too many runs...

     

    Rohit Sharma :doh:

    2 catches :doh:

     

    I want Ponting to continue playing like this for a year or 2 atleast..Thanks to him the score is under 300 :majesty:

    His batting was what got me into Cricket and I can never forget that image of Donald being run out in 1999

    Awesome player and an excellent finisher but was limited to the 1999 world cup

     

    That match still makes me sad :(

     

    Yeah, Kalis is the best all rounder in the past decade or two I'd say. But why hasn't anyone mentioned Razzak?

    He was very good with reverse swing and could thrash the ball well too at his prime.

    And I remember a guy called Neil Johnson who opened both batting and bowling for Zimbabwe during some period. Pretty talented guy as well.

     

    Neil Johnson was a awesome player..Zimbabwe had a pretty team with johnson , murray , goodwin flower and Whittall brothers..

     

     

    @SA - :hug: people just see records. Yes, he doesn't have much record but he was a real match winner. I saw his innings and saw him taking the match out of opponents hands in a very crucial time.

     

    Lets change the topic though as there are lots of great players and we can't talk about all of them. Just add one thing, yuvi is not even close to klusner and agree with whoever mentioned razzak.

     

    Yea...

    His record may be okayish..But he has way more matches than what his record suggests...

     

    Yuvi has become a good all rounder form a year or 2 since his bowling is improved..He's primarily a batsman...

    Kallis and Kapil Dev are the best all rounders ever :D

    Seriously Pollock cant make it to a squad only on his bowling :lol:

     

    He's one of the best swing bowlers of all time...

     

    n Afridhi is no longer an all rounder , he's just a good bowler who can smash the ball..I dont even recall the last time he won a game with his batting abilities...

    talking of awesome players and not mentioning "Lance Klusner"? one of the best player of all time :majesty:

     

    Lance Klussner is my fav all rounders of all time..

    He has won SA lot of matches...

     

    Thats sad :( very sad :( love that cricketer :(

     

    He looked pathetic in last years IPL...He's not at all fit...
