cricketman Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 He is the leader of our attack. As everyone else looked tired, bored, and defeated with the ball, Zaheer kept storming in. He got in the Saffers faces. He tested them with skillful swing bowling, aggression, and a fair clip of pace (he touched 140). Harbhajan is getting all the credit but without Zaheer, the South African's could still be one down. Zaheer spurs the team. He bowls his heart out and gets things to happen, and that feeling is contagious and spreads throughout the team. Another such bowler is Sreesanth, yet we still bench him for some reason.
ensd2 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Isant has a lot to learn from zaheer but want he ?
Deleted_User_1 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 What are we Pakistan? So unpredictable? "Which India will show up?" We've been pretty consistent over the past couple of years, and I expect a professional performance all around, which they showed in the last session yesterday. Last test we were worse than Pak.....at least they have an excuse of no viable internal cricket structure and a country that is crumbling away. What is ours??
graphic23 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Last test we were worse than Pak.....at least they have an excuse of no viable internal cricket structure and a country that is crumbling away. What is ours?? Um, so then SA was worse than Pakistan too, and so was Australia when they all faced a innings defeat very recently. You're choosing one match out of the last 10 guess the performance today, I'm using the other 9 as a standard.

You cannot judge a team by one isolated match - the course of events is also important. Also, there was a lot of confusion on the morning of the test when Rohit got injured and Saha played as a batsman (which is not an excuse to lose a test match in such a manner). I'm pretty sure it hit the dressing room harmony in some or the other way. So, I think we can ignore the sample! :winky: (just like 1st test loss of SA to Eng in the recent series).
The Dark Horse Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Not sure about Sach or Badri but Viru shud have been used.
The Dark Horse Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 I saw his game during the ENgland ODIs, was sure he was international material.
Mr. Wicket Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 SA 350/9 dec.' date=' IND 29/4 dec., SA does not enforce f.o., SA 401/1 dec., IND 21/1 dec.[/quote'] Wunderbar.
Guest DeveGowda Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 500+... Innings win....match will over in day 4... SA cant make more than 200 in 2nd innings ..(they have 2 passengers in prince and Duminy whoc cost them England series) Ill change my predictions its Look like india will score over 400 today itself.. Viru 250+
Deleted_User_1 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Indians just gave away 20 more runs than needed......phaaaaaack!
Ranjha Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 India need to bat the whole day and then some....
Riley's Girl Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Congratz Alviro! Great innings, good to see the same composure & confidence on international debut that you exude in the domestic game. Hopefully now the selectors will give you more chances to prove your worth instead of keeping you on the sidelines.
Ranjha Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 OK....the slide starts.... Well not really..Gauti run out was misfortunate. Vijay..I never rated him. Top 2 premier batsmen are on the crease..Have high hopes from both.
Prudent Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 OK....the slide starts.... happy now ? :whack:
achilles Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Morkel senselessly staring at Sachin, failed ploy in the making? Okay, why the heck is Morkel wasting his energy glaring & staring. Sachin really doesn't care. :hatsoff: And its stupid to try this on Sachin. He'll build on this and maybe score a ton :two_thumbs_up:
achilles Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 ^ And then there would be 6 6s in a Test match :yay:
