jukkha Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 rp singh and sreesanth both these bowlers were key when we won the T20 World Cup. Where are they???? Link to comment
Lord Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 not selected by our great selectors n captain Link to comment
Fontaine Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 What is this comedy hour? The selectors said that Sreesant wasn't match fit and neigher was RP Singh. Link to comment
Show_stopper Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 What is this comedy hour? The selectors said that Sreesant wasn't match fit and neigher was RP Singh. Absolutely..you can't win everytime folks.Its just a couple of T-20's ffs. Stop acting like we got whitewashed in Tests or ODIs. Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 i hope we have better strategy in team selection for the world cup. a t20 team with more bowlers than batsmen is just stupid. Link to comment
diegovegaz Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 i have been emphasizing this for the last 5-6 months we won't be able to win the world cup without rp and sree take it from me in writing this selection committee is a bigger flop than tashan Link to comment
King Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 What is this comedy hour? The selectors said that Sreesant wasn't match fit and neigher was RP Singh. Is that right? I was wondering why would India leave out someone like RP Singh that has been so good overseas. Honestly I think India is going to miss him on this tour. Link to comment
pankaj_honey Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 yes i agree. rp singh and sreesanth are better than irfan pathan, parveen kumar and munaf patel in 20-20. Link to comment
MDK17 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 The t20 side doesn't necessarily have to be hard hitters or a specific team but just a younger side, in the earlier ODIs and t20 against Sri Lanka in 2008 not this year we beat them with players who were just introduced like Kohli and some other players whose names I can't remember. Here India were just lazy in my opinion just going for the quick runs but even then still managing to make both matches close in those NZ conditions which isn't too bad, the team can't take all the players needed with them but think they should of used at least one of the test players int the t20 matches either Dravid or Laxman. This current side they are using were fun on a batting friendly pitch but aren't gonna be taken seriously on faster wickets. I think they need to mix it up a bit each time. As for the bowlers I believe that Rp Singh and Sreesanth are better t20 bowlers aswell as Munaf Patel who's been bowling well in all his matches and bowled relly well in the IPL for Shane Warne's team. Sreesanth bowls a perfect line and width, RP singh is just alot faster than IrFan and Munafs line and medium pace is perfect for t20. Ishant Sharma I don't believe he's a efficient for the t20 format he gives too many runs away and takes wickets late which is no use. Link to comment
pankaj_honey Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Idle bowlers for T-20 are Zaheer, Ishant Sharma, Sreesanth, RP Singh and spinners Harbhajan and Ojha should be included in last 16 or 15 players team. Also Ravinder Jadeja is good spinning option. Irfan should play in IPL and domestic cricket and try to get his bowling form there. Link to comment
The Outsider Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 As I've written numerous times before - any Indian team without Sreesanth is a travesty. Link to comment
retterimp Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 As I've written numerous times before - any Indian team with Sreesanth is a comedy. Link to comment
Chandan Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Back injury rules out Sreesanth for three months Stress fracture rules Sreesanth out of IPL Cricinfo staff March 18, 2009 Sreesanth, the India and Kings XI Punjab fast bowler, will miss this year's IPL due to a stress fracture of his back. He was one of Punjab's key bowlers last season with his 19 scalps making him the tournament's second highest wicket-taker. He was also involved in an infamous spat with Harbhajan Singh during the match against the Mumbai Indians. "It is unfortunate that Sreesanth will not be participating in the season two due to his back injury," Punjab coach Tom Moody said. "He is a performer and was a great asset to the team last season and his absence on the field will surely be felt." Sreesanth, who is currently in Sydney as part of his rehabilitation process, said he wanted to be with the team through the tournament even though he wouldn't be participating. "I will be their motivator and will cheer them through to the IPL season two finals." He will also interact with fans during the event in his role as 'fan mentor' and 'community face' for the franchise. A string of injuries have kept Sreesanth on the sidelines for much of the time since last season's IPL. It has been nearly a year since he played for India, his patchy performances in the Duleep Trophy not convincing the selectors to pick him for the New Zealand tour. The latest fitness problem also reduces his chances of being part of India's defence of the World Twenty20, to be held in England this June. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now we know why the selectors didn't go for Sreesanth in the NZ test squad. But how on earth was he injured without playing anything? Link to comment
