VRV Singh Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 If I bowl rubbish, Mushy [Mushtaq Ahmed, England's spin bowling coach] just says to me, "Don't worry, Mr Swanny. Everything is still okay. The sun will still shine tomorrow." :haha: Link to comment
Cricket Tragic Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Reminds me of his Ashes diary in which he makes fun of Mushy. :cantstop: Link to comment

CG Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 If Zak does not play Tomm. If zak does not paly tomm ,i think he should be called back to india and a replacemnet should be flown in may be Yadav,aaron,R.p singh . Link to comment
Trichromatic Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Yes, it's better to have a replacement on the tour unless it's guaranteed that he will play 4th test. I don't understand the obsession with Aaron. He hasn't done anything exceptional in FC cricket. Link to comment
rahuld9 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 yeah defo get a replacement, but get someone a little bit different, maybe bit of pace or another left armer, something different. And tbh without him in the third test, no point bcoz were gonna struggle to get 20 wickets for less than 800 runs. Link to comment
rahuld9 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Ojha or Mishra or Four Seamers. Personally, I would opt for Mishy in the next test for the reason that he is a wickettaker, and that's what we need or we not really gonna get 20 wickets cheaply anytime soon, and he can bat a bit to support fragile tail. Ojha is a great prospect but I don't want him trying to keep the runs down tbh. Four seamers would have been my choice but the amount of bowling that the likes of Praveen and Ishant have had means that we need a spinner. What u guys think? Link to comment
Cricketics Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Mishra for me. Bowled prety well in west indies. and didn't do to bad in warm ups after he arrived in England. Should get a go now. I don't know if Ojha has bowled anything anways from past few months. Link to comment

He hasn't done anything exceptional in FC cricket. As he decent pace and can swing it,also i do not see guys like mithun,vinaykumar, who are proven failures should again be persisted. Link to comment

gult Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Ojha or Mishra - Whoever does well in the Northanmptonshire match Link to comment
rahuld9 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Ojha or Mishra - Whoever does well in the Northanmptonshire match India never takes practice games seriously though, so hopefully they do tmoro. Link to comment
Trichromatic Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Depends on the type of pitch. As Wobbly posted in other thread that Edgbaston might help spinners also. I would like to see Mishra in such conditions. England don't play leg-spinners in much either. Link to comment
wobblydoggy Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Mithun and Vinay Kumar RP Singh would be good idea. Yep ! and then when our batsmen have finished with him his new name will be RIP Singh:--D Link to comment

Expect all players who are willing to find form and fitness to play in the match. Link to comment

Doesn't matter what he thinks. Injuries and poor performance, it will be mistake to take the match lightly. Link to comment
Talwar Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 4 seamers, spinners have been useless in this series so far. Link to comment
