Sammy too overconfident?


Recommended Posts

All through these matches Sammy has been asking for a fast and bouncy pitch feeling that Indian Batsman are weak against Fast Bowling which is true..... But he thinks his team batsman are masters of swing and seam bowling and that if he gets pitches which have pace and bounce his 8th ranked team will win 9/10 times......... WI are 30/3 All in his batting ,slogging in a test match ,is it overconfidence or butterfly-in-the-belly when it comes to defending?

But that is the only choice they have. If you give a flat track even this Indian side would rack up a huge score and let West Indies self-destruct themselves. In other words bounce or no bounce performance of WI is not going to change much. It is going to suck one way or the other.

Dont think so Murali Vijay gets out in the Best of flat tracks and Virat kohli does not have tec.

Outperformed how?
By taking wickets. He's in the team as their third seamer and he's been taking wickets and bowling economically. Dhoni hasn't been making runs.

Feel sad for him, as captain he is contributing and doing as much as he can. They just have a crap batting lineup. Sarwan and Chanderpaul are way past their best.

Was there a point I am missing ? Or are you comparing dhoni and Sammy as captains

I don't consider captaincy performance per se. It will be comical to compare Sammy to Dhoni at captaincy. But thats a moot point. I think I was reasonably clear, you seem to be looking for things that aren't there.

At least the matches are a bit competitive now. On a flat pitch' date=' India would have murdered WI[/quote'] Never underestimate the darting abilities of Harbhajan as he demostrated in the NZ series.

Their bowling is the best thing about their side. Getting a team like India out for 200 odd, game after game is brilliant... esp, for a side many considered to be 2nd rate.
