Ranji Trophy 2011-12: Super League

[rkt.india]

Firstly we do not even play enough matches in Ranji trophy. Plate teams play minimum 5-6 matches while elite team plays minimum 7 matches. Compare it to County cricket.

The Chennai pitch has become a minefiled when t20s/ODIs are played but for first class matches, it becomes a dead track! The 2009-10 final played at Mysore or last year's final played at Moti Bagh stadium were on perfect wickets which saw close matches.

I think all these technical committee etc are dead now. Remember earlier we used to have coach and captains' conclave after the end of every season to have a discussion about pitch and such things? I think we've not had even one such conclave since IPL started in 2008. It is dead and so is India's domestic cricket. Very soon' date= Indian cricket will dead too.

Eight consecutive humiliations away from home and yet the same batting line-up continues untouched (not that the bowlers are any better - even New Zealand troubled this Aussie batting line-up) and the board president says all izz well...its already dead.

Thats what is amazing. Normally teams dont experiment and change a winning combination, but this Indian team is amazing. It doesn't want to experiment and change a losing combination. Even if it doesn't work atleast try something different.

Exactly! All over the world teams say they wouldn't like to change a winning combination. The Indian cricket team is the only one in the world that stays exactly the same despite humiliating the country in eight consecutive Test matches. These players couldn't give a **** about their performances because they know they are untouchable, despite the whole world laughing at their performances that would disgrace Bangladesh. Indian cricket is completely ****ed up.

Will the last person to leave BCCCI (Board of Control for Corruption in Cricket in India) headquarters please turn out the lights? :goodnight:

[Tapioca]

Bullshit. It is the standard tactic of TN to prepare such pitches and run over the opposition. Backfired badly this time.

Didn't Srini talk about having a "sporting pitch"?

Not just talk, he is supposed to have instructed the curator to prepare a sporting pitch. So much for the Board President's 'instructions'.

Not just talk' date=' he is supposed to have instructed the curator to prepare a sporting pitch. So much for the Board President's 'instructions'.[/quote'] Maybe the instruction was for media only...show off. In reality....his instructions was something else. But...BCCI have ruled the Indian cricket like this...& will continue so unless a fake valuation is cricket in India gets a reality check. So badly hoping that atleast 3 other sports in India (can be any) challenge Cricket & BCCI for that corporate & broadcaster $$$. Then only BCCI will wake up
