King Tendulkar Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 Some right dodgy venues though for the touring party though! That is new, the venues! Link to comment

arkay Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Cricket is so wide spread in India is the reason why cricket has been promoted in so many centers. All the odi matches are allotted to different centers in a round robin basis so that every team gets to host an odi. Unfortunately, touring teams want to play only in major centers. Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 I will be going to Kanpur & Jamshedpur for the one dayers. Are they safe places for an english cricket fan? WTF!!! India is totally safe. Its a lot safer travelling in India then in the UK where at any moment some 12 year old hoodie is likely to stab you at any given moment. Safe places for english fans....my god heard it all now. Colin you need to get out more oftern! Link to comment
punjabi_khota Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I will be going to Kanpur & Jamshedpur for the one dayers. Are they safe places for an english cricket fan? If you have common sense, every place is safe. Just look down, don't look anyone in the eye, don't talk too much and no one gets hurt. Kiddin Link to comment
Texy Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Unlike other parts of subcontinent, India is relatively safer....but obviously it's a developing country so you have to be careful about pick pocketers and thieves and people who take foreigners for ride by charging double the price, so being knowledgeable and doing your research right doesn't hurt. If you have any question just ask any post police officer. Link to comment
King Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Let's be honest England don't quite deserve more than 2 tests at this point in time. India should have done away with 3 ODIs and 2 tests against England. Barring a couple England just can't play positive cricket. Link to comment
Desi Cartman Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Beefy was worried that some of the places might be dry areas :haha: I think BCCI needs to think about it , the places should have an airport and decent hotels. Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I will be going to Kanpur & Jamshedpur for the one dayers. Are they safe places for an english cricket fan? They shouldn't be too bad, but make sure you are going with a group (ie; the Barmy Army tours or something) so that you aren't alone. People may not attack you or try to hurt you, but they will definitely try the usual Indian tricks of extortion on you. Taxi drivers, vendors, shop-keepers, etc. will definitely overcharge you by thousands of Rupees and the usual pick-pocketing, petty theft may occur. Be safe. Be sure to watch what you eat too - Indian food can be very dodgy at times. You might want to pack some baked beans, some tuna cans so that you have food readily available to you in the event that you run into some dodgy food (which is extremely probable). And always drink mineral water. Link to comment

BBCI and Dhoni in partnership killing test cricket!:angry_smile: http://uk.cricinfo.com/india/content/current/story/361036.html Only one of two things possible. 1) Dsr needs counseling. or 2) Dhoni's family had duped Dsr's family crores of rupess in ancestral property or something.
