Is our batting line up losing the aura?

[wobblydoggy]

What an idiot. Short term memory at its best. Why are Eng so crap in ODIs and have continously been a joke in every WC? What aura of crapness do they portray then? What kind of aura is shown when you steal players from other countries cause your own domestic talent is non-existent?

I dont worry about the short form of the game like you lot do. Tests are the real game

Gunner, when I started posting on here I was told all sorts of rubbish about how bad England were and how we were going to get thrashed. Since then I have at each test match had to put up with all the excuses and cr*p thrown at England. You guys on here are totally India India and give anyone else a really rough time. If you want my honest opinion, I think India have been incredibly unproffessional and have let themselves down. They are far better than these results show, but it is their own fault, like the 5-0 thrashing in Aus was our fault. India have been humiliated and quite frankly they deserved it

I don't disagree with the unprofessional part and yes they have been humiliated. However I am not sure that the idea of rubbing the faces of the vanquished in it is the right approach. After all this is a sport and teams will get handed a beating from time to time. But what is the fun in humiliating the defeated team?

Do you know how mant times I have had that 5-0 thrown in my face on here? Or that England are stealing players Or that we were 'lucky' Or that you only had half a team or that Sehwag would save you or that we are pussies or that you are slow starters or that we can only win in home conditions or that you are WC , god knows what that has to do with tests or that we will only be no1 for minutes I could go on

:haha::haha: Nah, we all have a bit of the boy in us whatever the age. If you got to India and there is a test match in Bangalore, that is the one to go to. Nice city, good facilities, beautiful climate, hospitable and knowledgeable people. You will get most of the above in Chennai, Kolkatta and Mumbai as well except the beautiful climate.

Yours looks worse. If I had my way England would not be playing you. Cheating in Cricket is just too wrong for me

[Trichromatic]

3-1 to us in the tests in India' date=' as long as the rain does not save you:winky:[/quote'] Series will be played in Nov 2012. It doesn't rain in India during those months. :haha: Taking digs at both Indians and Pakistanis at the same. "Lagta hai iske dono haath me khayali laddu aa gaya hai".

3-1 to us in the tests in India' date=' as long as the rain does not save you:winky:[/quote'] There is no way England can beat India in India. It's a whole different ball game. You have the bragging rights right now but don't get carried away.

[Rahul Dravid]

you're right.... and your teams looks great.. no need to worry for a long time to come... maybe just need to improve in away conditions....

thats why i say Pakistan should be banned from ICC. there should be no Pakistan...!!

[Sidhoni]

And this is when we have the Big 3 still there, what will happen after these great players....... :(( This is the reason why we need to groom these youngsters.
