Roshanrocks Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 :orderorder: Lookin at the depleted squad I hope our team doesnt do some harakiri and cost us the No.1 status. What does our team need to accomplish in terms of series result in order to ensure our No.1 status remains intact? Is there any even a remost probability that we can lose the No1 ranking in this series? anyone have the knowledge? :hmmm:
saneindian Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 We are winning this one 2-0 brah. Have faith is the bowling line up and the young batsmen. And if the pithces are similar to what they had for WI-Pak, then even a whitewash is on the cards.
Stuge Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 now way we are going to win this easily . Go on ICC test ranking predictor and do your maths :) http://icc-cricket.yahoo.net/match_zone/test_predictor.php

Go on ICC test ranking predictor and do your maths :) http://icc-cricket.yahoo.net/match_zone/test_predictor.php We would retain it even if we lose 0-3 but I dont know why we are thinking about losing. Unless Gayle has a great day, their batting lineup should crumble quicker than us.
Zap_Brannigan Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 We basically have to win every single game to not lose any points. Even if we draw a game, we will lose points and if we win all 3 games, we will gain/lose nothing.
achilles Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Dude, we lost to Zimbabwe under Raina's leadership. Why is he leading when we have a world cup winning Virat Kohli in the team?
Sachin=GOD Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Dude' date=' we lost to Zimbabwe under Raina's leadership. Why is he leading when we have a world cup winning Virat Kohli in the team?[/quote'] We lost the Zim series under Raina because he was unfortunate to lead a team with one of our most inexperienced bowling attacks. So blaming his captaincy for that loss is unjustified and uncalled for.
Cricket Tragic Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 We have to lose 0-4 to England and England has to beat SL 3-0 according to what I've read. The Eng v India series is not yet out on the predictor.

So blaming his captaincy for that loss is unjustified and uncalled for. May I know the answer to the second part of my post - Why should Raina be captain when we have a World cup winning Virat Kohli in the team? He's a better leader and won us a World Cup with a joke of an attack.

He's a better leader and won us a World Cup with a joke of an attack. because IMO Kohli is still too inexperienced at international level to be Captain. Yeah he's a good captain and is in very good form but even then he has played only 50 odd ODIs - I really do not think he should be made the captain at this moment. If the selectors really think that he is our future captain (which I'm not sure of at the moment :P) then they should make him the vice captain for some future tours where Dhoni is captain. This way he will learn a lot under Dhoni and will be ready for captaincy when needed.

Now I will miss my entertainment package feat. star performances from the likes of Dhon_zone :bumsmack:
Stuge Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 I still don't understand why Raina was selected as captain and soon after UV was diagnosed with pnemonia ;)
