Sachinism Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 ^ We have talented people around on this site, creating banners for them is a piece of cake ;-) It is a pointless series, don't know why they're playing 4 ODIs It doesn't really matter, couple of the bench warmers can get a game and we have a long break after that anyway Link to comment

sreej Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 finally someone cool and sensible, i thought i was going to be called a retard ... again.. Hahahah... that's funny dude. You shouldn't be surprised if someone does,'cause you're a Pakistani poster in an Indian forum. I experience something similar on pakistani forums. You shouldn't take it to heart...it goes with the territory. Everyone knows this is a pointless series but being an Indian cricket fan I am always excited to see Team India in action, no matter who is playing. I do feel for the players though.There's gonna be a 2 month break for the players so I don't expect India to perform too well with their minds of the upcoming sabbatical. Link to comment
bharat297 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 It is a pointless series but we shouldnt look at it that way. If India are to be no.1 in the world, then we can not treat any series as pointless. If players are tired well then we should look at a better rotation policy. The ICC do not care enough about player welfare to reduce the number of matches played so it is up to our selectors to fix things up. Sachin has been rested , thats good, but players like Yuvraj, Dhoni, Ishant, Harbahajan and Zaheer need to be rested from time to time. There are replacement players in domestic cricket (ok fine, they might not be as good, but then again they might even be better, who knows). Link to comment
Anakin Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I don't see the point of T20 either. Link to comment

cowboysfan Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 it doesnt matter because we still need to win all the matches we can.no 1 should be our ultimate goal and we wont reach that if we take games off or even series off. Link to comment
DomainK Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Yes, we could have done without this series. Our players could have used some rest time. But now that we are playing, we can not afford to take it lightly. Link to comment

But now that we are playing, we can not afford to take it lightly.[/quote'] Yeah, I'm not sure why its a useless series. Is it because its not accompanied by a test series? I don't know but I think its a pretty important one in light of recent events. I hope we take it seriously and do well. Link to comment
nikred Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 What exactly is a useful series?:hmmmm: Link to comment
jf1gp_1 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 What exactly is a useful series?:hmmmm: anything you-know-who wins is useful, remember how a loss meant t20 is "fun" yet a win meant revival of cricket Link to comment
Jai Ho Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I kind of agree but can't resist some ass kicking by our team after the world cup debacle. :cantstop: Link to comment
