Fontaine Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 the odis pitches are supposed to pretty flat in 2 or 3 venues so i can see bhajji's point. And what point is that? The pitches are flat so don't expect me to take a lot of wickets with spin bowling? :hysterical: Sorry, but I'm not buying it. If a player is going to make statements like that then he better damn well be prepared to back it up on the field, and looking at his record, that's not happening.
Desi Cartman Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 he should calm down a bit he could easily say it will be a good contest, rather than predicting 5-0 and then ending up looking like an idiot He is not as smart as other cricketers ...
Laaloo Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 It would have been more understandable if someone like Ghambhir or heck even Yuvi make these type of statements. But when a clown like harbhajan does it, it doesnt make sense. He should first concentrate on his bowling.

coffee_rules Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 NZ is one of the top ODI teams. They beat Eng in Eng (altho' that doesn't say much) and are 2-2 against Aus in Aus. They are not some pushovers to say we will beat them 5-0. I will be happy with a 3-2 result and s 1-0 test series win. Even that is very difficult to attain, if only India has a strict work ethic.
cowboysfan Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: dude you are pretty weird.who apart from murali is better off-spinner than bhajji right now in your esteemed estimation?.
Laaloo Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 dude you are pretty weird.who apart from murali is better off-spinner than bhajji right now in your esteemed estimation?. There are no credible spinners in the world today sadly. But wth has harbhajan done that he can run his mouth in the media?

But wth has harbhajan done that he can run his mouth in the media? the media expect it when they interview bhajji.i have seen people like him in other sports who are always good for a cringe worthy quote but are pretty harmless.
Sachinism Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 He is not as smart as other cricketers ... thats exactly why he should keep his mouth shut
Desi Cartman Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 thats exactly why he should keep his mouth shut but he is not smart enough to understand and practice that :stupido2:
Pak_Forever Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 I suspect it won't be as easy for India as Bhajji claims. India have an edge in ODIs, but Test will certainly be a good test considering different conditions and lack of practice games.
graphic23 Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 dude you are pretty weird.who apart from murali is better off-spinner than bhajji right now in your esteemed estimation?. Um, Daniel Vettori ? You know, the top ranked bowler for ODIs according to the LG-ICC Rankings ? And our dearest friend Harbhajan in only 24 places below (25th). So I think we know who should be running their mouths off and who shouldn't.
Sachin_Rulez Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Um' date=' Daniel Vettori ? You know, the top ranked bowler for ODIs according to the LG-ICC Rankings ?

amits Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 why only few? He can bowl 15 overs per day in the Tests and can be our main strike bowler :musicman: dhoni can be a part-timer at best. he has to keep wickets as well & shouldnt be asked to bowl more than 4-5 overs in an odi & more than 6-7 overs in a day in a test match

Gambit Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 NZ are quite plucky at home. 5-0 will be quite difficult to achieve, however winning the ODI series is expected.
Cricketics Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Um' date=' Daniel Vettori ? You know, the top ranked bowler for ODIs according to the LG-ICC Rankings ? And our dearest friend Harbhajan in only 24 places below (25th). So I think we know who should be running their mouths off and who shouldn't.[/quote'] i won't be surprised if i get to hear some third class tv reporter exaggerating on bhajji's comments which were said in jest. and then i am not too pleased to see here people continuously bashing bhajji for the above comments. even if he said the above things, then whats wrong. there is a difference between what he said above and some absurd comment. If he had said "Nz can't beat us" then it would have been foolish. i don't see any reason why Bhajji is getting stick here in this thread. WELL DONE BHAJJI. MORE POWER TO YOU
Nash Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Who ever are cursing bhajjii.. :finger: for them... Before every series somebody makes statement. And he is doing right thing.. GO bhajji GO.. We will win..
