DomainK Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Australia 99 series . It was humiliating then as well :(( Remember Lele predicting a whitewash just before the series started? I felt like breaking his face. And then it happened.
amiret Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 You think you feel bad ? Just think about this poor guy . :sad_smile: People in his neighborhood are probably throwing stones at him right now.
Sachin=GOD Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 You think you feel bad ? Just think about this poor guy . :sad_smile: People in his neighborhood are probably throwing stones at him right now. why??? its not that he could have done anything to avoid this defeat or that India has not suffered such defeats before
Laaloo Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 People in his area probably don't even give a **** about this test series. Why would they throw stones at him?
Cricketics Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Hard to understand why people keep bringin 90s. We were bad throughout, but never this bad in bowling. I thought Srinath, Kumble, The two Bangalore bowlers made sure we don't bowl so patheticly in overseas tours. I mean i know we used to suck but not this bad.. all throuhout. This has been one of those bad series, which comes once in 10 years but it's still not over, and thats good for us, since we still have chance to change it's result.

It sort of brings back the memories from the 90s, but the bowling is far worse. Actually, we will probably never realize how good Kumble was. That man saved the day for us on so many occasions.
ali0786 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Yes, enjoy these Little Times being a fan of the *****iest Cricket Team. You dont have many generally. That same team at least won a test match last year in England without their main batsmen, something your team doesn't look capable of so far.

Aliens can invade earth Pakistan can become a super power but there is no way we're winning or even drawing this test.
flamy Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Now you see why tests are overrated :regular_smile:
Cricketics Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Yeah' date=' I agree. It sort of brings back the memories from the 90s, but the bowling is far worse. Actually, we will probably never realize how good Kumble was. That man saved the day for us on so many occasions.[/quote'] Totally, even in the very recent tour if you see an example. First test first session Aus about 120 odd with no loss. India end the day with 330 for 9. Kumble, used to play big part in these little times. Will be hard to find someone like him. There is a reason why no one, yes no one could replace him for all the 15+ years he played for INdia. No one came out to be better than him.
maniac Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 For followeres of Indian Cricket in the 90's none of us gave our team even an outside chance of winning overseas....We had just 2 capable batsmen atleast overseas in SRT,Azhar compared to SRT,Dravid,VVS,Gambhir and Sehwag now... well bowling combination of Srinath,Kumble and even Prasad in helpful conditions looks better than this attack though.Mongia vs Dhoni, Why is anyone one on this forum amazed that our expectations are higher now compared to 90's???
Cricket Tragic Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Kumble was useless in overseas tests in the 90s. He did well in SA in 92 but nothing else really.
maniac Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 I'm enjoying this actually...:):):) Well think of it as a very small token of appreciation for all the slapstick comedy and entertainment provided by your team,board and fans over the years
maniac Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 Kumble was useless in overseas tests in the 90s. He did well in SA in 92 but nothing else really. but atleast he was economical...I don't remember him getting absolutely smashed around by any team in any overseas test.
Blue Panther Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Your wish granted. Today's play is completed.
Ultimate_Game Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 You think you feel bad ? Just think about this poor guy . :sad_smile: People in his neighborhood are probably throwing stones at him right now. Why is he a "poor guy"? The guy saw the team he supports win a 2nd world cup and is seen sharing the trophy with Tendulkar which you will probably never get a chance to get within a mile of.
Andy Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 That same team at least won a test match last year in England without their main batsmen' date=' something your team doesn't look capable of so far.[/quote'] And the same team lost a test match to West Indies. Whats your Point Duh?
