Hell Raiser Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 He played well in England and showed promise that he has improved with the bat, but he is still not good enough to play in this team. I agree with the point that Robin should be given chance now. Link to comment
carnish Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 parthiv patel is good enough to make place in the indian team of 1990's in place of nayan mongia but not in today's age... he is crap for the game played today Link to comment

MCcricket Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Parthiv is a better test then odi bat , he sucked at domestic odi's too, I have my reservations of Dhoni being successfull in test's abroad also.Uthappa is a show pony also has bad technique,Rayudu if he can start keeping fulltime , Uday Kaul, KARTHICK ARE BETTER BETS . The biggest plus being with the total failure in England selectors , Dhoni made some forced choices, Umesh ,Ashwin, Rohit, to an extent Aaron are the finds for the WI series. Link to comment

So Parthiv should find a place in today's age as well :--D j/k Link to comment
deathmonger Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 under lights i have heard ppl using term 'ball moving under lights' eg asia cup 2010 final. how do floodlights help in making the ball swing? Link to comment
Old guy Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 i think it just does maybe its more related to temprature climate ,etc at night idk would like some expert comments on this Link to comment
FlopDulkar Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 its all in your head. Ball just plays with you. Link to comment
Stuge Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Light does nothing ,but its the cool weather - moisture in air the which tends to settle down at evening . Link to comment
yadhav500 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 i have heard ppl using term 'ball moving under lights' eg asia cup 2010 final. how do floodlights help in making the ball swing? That was more to do with bowler friendly conditions in Dambulla. Remember our 88 all out v NZ? We don't see any difficulty for batting or swing for seamers when we play at home under lights...

vamos_rafa Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I think the temperatures are a bit cooler. So there is a bit of moisture in the air. also, at some places like Mumbai or Jo'burg or Perth, there is a breeze which picks up during the evening time. That also aids in the ball swinging.

1983-2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 West Indies need to spread their sloggers around in their batting order Russell, Sammy, Rampaul should be spread out, send one in at 3, other at 5 and another one 8, they also have bravo and pollard, pollard can bat at 6 while bravo at 4 Link to comment
CoverDrive Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 WI ODI team has much more fight than Eng Eng series became a one sided joke. compare it to how WI are fighting out they are making India work very hard for the runs and victories. Difference on our side has been no Dhoni who had a smashing Eng series. In fact in general this series has been much better with larger crowds at smaller centers, better spirit ( you have to like Sammy as a great guy) compared to bad mouthing spoiled english player and great performances (Rohit, Kohli, Rampaul, Russell) Link to comment
saneindian Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Exactly, much more exciting than the England series. Lot of fighting spirit from WI and packed stadiums once again. Though have to add that Eng series was in a sense a revenge series and the players looked far more intense. Here as Sehwag said the other day, our batting line up clearly thinks they can chase down anything that WI puts up and hence there are shades of complacency here and there. Link to comment
maverick451 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Eng series became a one sided joke. Thats what the English fans thought over here, even bangladesh put up a better challenge than india in tests! :winky: Link to comment
achilles Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 ^ Jeez, you guys really roll up in a victory over a second-XI India? Link to comment
Karan114 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 West Indies' batting especially has been better. But as saneindian says, it is partly due to India's contrasting attitude towards the two series. Link to comment
rajmarie Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Eng fans can say the same about us for our series there. I am just happy to see improving WI team...which after decades seems to be playing as a TEAM. If they continue their hard work & learn from their experience...& continue playing as team....success & win will be there for them. Link to comment
Trichromatic Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 ^ Jeez' date=' you guys really roll up in a victory over a second-XI India?[/quote'] So you believe Ind without few players is worse than Bangladesh? Link to comment
