Sachin=GOD Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 The batsmen have had just one bad session and here we've got people already writing obituaries for the Indian team :wall: Most of the people who are so pessimistic are the ones who had completely written off India after we lost the 1st test in South Africa also :finger:
Ultimate_Game Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I don't think we are writing off India. In fact I would be very surprized if India ends up losing the Test series. What most of the folks are upset about is regarding the itinerary and BCCI, especially the fact that there was no practice game before the Test series. And for the Test specialists who weren't in the odi squad they simply jumped into the Test match after a gap of 4 months or so!!!
Pagalpanti Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 It always happen and it wont change, just wait and see if Raina scores a ton here. All people who didn't want him to even be in squad will hail Raina as the next big thing. Its common Indian fan mentality, we never back the team when their down.
kabira Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 they are number 1 for a reason. The guys have immense self belief
Texan Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Nobody is writing them off, but it was a team that looked arrogant. Just have a look at Murali Vijay's shot. He was still in T20 mode. One bad session is good enough to lose a series BTW. SL just had one bad session against England and they've lost the series.
EnterTheVoid Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 One bad session and the usual idiots are in full swing writing obituaries and bumping old threads.
Rahul Dravid Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 1st session in a new country.. Test Cricket after months... give them a break.. India will win the series eaaaaasily
Sidhoni Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 WE normally do that in first tests coz of effing BCCI.
tatters Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 As Indians, we tend to be quite pathetically ball-less. I would say what goes on here is quite representative. There are types of fans that properly support the team when it's going through a bad spell. I'm sad to say we're not that type.
BERGKAMP Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 246 might just be the highest score in all 4 innings going by how much the ball was turning towards the end yesterday and how inconsistent the bounce was. All is not lost.
General_Public Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Exactly. I went to sleep at 89-6 content that the tail will wag and we will get minimum 250. We re no 1 for a reason.
Cricket Tragic Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Exactly. I went to sleep at 89-6 content that the tail will wag and we will get minimum 250. We re no 1 for a reason. It's called Indianism. :yay:
