kabira Posted August 4, 2011 Author Posted August 4, 2011 Why does Dhoni suddenly go "out of form" when he is batting on anything other than a road? I would love to discuss and debate with you but you have been troll so far in my opinion. Can you example why Cook can't score runs??
wobblydoggy Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 lol' date=' medioce with the bat is your bum boy Dhoni, infact maybe he is worse than mediocre.[/quote'] :hysterical:

wobblydoggy Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 and their captain cannot bat for years now Our captain goes in and out of form. The twenty he scored at lords was worth 60 in my opinion
Serani Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 I would love to discuss and debate with you but you have been troll so far in my opinion. Can you example why Cook can't score runs?? We dont need a debate. I have posted many times on the myth that Dhoni is a good batsman, but lets be honest you dont need me to tell you that, just check out his dismissals. Trying to thrash the ball away and caught in the slips, what a responsible skipper.
Trichromatic Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Our captain goes in and out of form. The twenty he scored at lords was worth 60 in my opinion Strauss' days are over unless something amazing happens. I guess we will see Cook(?) taking over as captain soon. Team will be even more stronger then under the leadership of a young captain.
CG Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Our captain goes in and out of form. The twenty he scored at lords was worth 60 in my opinion Strauss average has dropped to 41 in the last few years ,As he is winning he is surviving ,the way mr strauss and cook play they are always going to struggle if the ball is pitched up and strauss is being very defensive too ,Indians will be thinking its just a matter of time before they get him out and continue bowling a line to him ,As long as you are winning every thing seems good.
gs Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Quality spin would be the way to go. But with Kumble retired, I dont see that happening. Maybe Ojha/Mishra can do something special in the 3rd test.
Blue Panther Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Ask him close to his mouth while playing. I don know why he tries to act like Clint Eastwood.

rahuld9 Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 listen dont worry boys, when Zaheer comes back, prior will be gone a lot easier, because of the left arm angle coming back into the batsman. And serani, who have WON THE WORLD CUP...EXACTLY

And serani, who have [b']WON THE WORLD CUP...EXACTLY What is it with you Indians and the world cup. It is one tournament of inferior one day cricket, not much better than the slogfest we won. The pure form of the game, Tests, is where a team is really measured and at the moment it is not good for you and likely to get worse for you when your greats retire.
CG Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Rubbish The players appreciate the steady hand of stauss and he has a knack of making a score when we really need it As i said everything is perfect when team is doing well ,Its when england lose then questions will be asked as is happening with dhoni .Strauss performance is on a decline as i remember he averaged close to 48 3 years back.

Yeah but more people are interested in ODI cricket than tests - simple as that.

Worldcup is more important to most indians who are casual followers of the game and as long as the test championship starts ,it will be the biggest event.personally i am not able to watch odi matches its just gets boring seeing bowlers getting hammered on flat picthes,
wobblydoggy Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Yeah but more people are interested in ODI cricket than tests - simple as that. More young people who do not have the attention span of a fish, I agree:giggle: Us old bug*ers have a bit more patience:--D
Trichromatic Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Most players' date=' not all, but most decline in their batting averages as captain[/quote'] Averaging 31 as an opener in 2 years is certainly not a good sign.
wobblydoggy Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Averaging 31 as an opener in 2 years is certainly not a good sign. When it comes to captains, England have always picked leaders, except KP, Botham, Flintoff,Nasser I could go on :hysterical:
