Predator_05 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains Come on guys, go easy on Birbal. Let's not patronise members in this way. Birbal hasn't made any of those retarded comments (it's common knowledge that ==> was the prime culprit behind the momentum theory, and other bakwaas anti-Indian rants) and he is an intelligent guy who knows his cricket. There is no need to antagonise members for no reason; especially if they have contrasting viewpoints from own - in fact such posters should be encouraged to post more often, as we can't maintain a forum without debates. Birbal came on here to talk cricket, not bad-mouth us like ==> did. Link to comment
kabira Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains yup zubin, before you attack Birbal.. Write few articles.... Link to comment
Dhondy Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains Agree wholeheartedly with Pred. Birbal, or Gaurang could probably have tought most professional journalists a thing or two about cricket scribing. Link to comment
King Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains Nothing wrong with DravidDaBest's post, it's quite funny actually. I've seen some really strange comments those days and they were not funny at all. Lest this one was a funny one and didn't really attack anyone personally. Link to comment

Birbal3 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains I don't know where this IDIOT found this record... "Ganguly's record abroad (23%) is the worst among the six captains who have led India at least in 20 matches each." But cricinfo Statsguru will confirm that out of 110 matches played OUTSIDE India Ganguly has won 59... that ain't no 23%... This one FALSE statistic...means the whole article is basically Bullshit...

DesiChap Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains Indian won 24 out of 51 matches played AWAY under Ganguly's captainship. This includes mirrows. 10 of these 24 wins were against mirrows Kenya/Zim/Bangla. Link to comment
Birbal3 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains Why are we being so PEDANTIC.. does his wins over Pakistan IN South Africa NOT count as overseas wins? If that is the case how come Dravid's win in "Neutral" count? Link to comment
DesiChap Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains India loas equal # matches 24 under Ganguly playing away. 1 of this is a loss to Bangladesh in 2004-2005. Link to comment
Birbal3 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains If you calculate Dravid and AWAY win... it is 6 out of 17 i.e. 33%.... In case of Ganguly... his non-minnow away wins are 14 out of 40 i.e. slightly more than 33%... SEE ANY DIFFERENCE? Link to comment

Predator_05 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: Dravid has best ODI success rate among Indian captains Dravid needs to win a few tournaments before he can be compared to a captain like Azharuddin. Given the number of tournaments India won under his leadership; i'd rather use him as the benchmark. So far India have disappointed in all the multination tourneys they have participated in. They lost to SL in the IndianOil triangular, failed to qualify for the final of the DLF Cup in Malaysia, and suffered an embarrassing first round exit in the Champions Trophy. Although India have never lost a bilateral series at home under him, which is an exceptional achievement...Azhar never lost one either. If he can match Azhar's 69% success rate at home & 44% success rate overseas and win a tournament or two, he will have a strong claim to be the best ODI captain India have ever had. Link to comment
