The tracking of Darty in the domestic season

[The Dark Horse]

I had respect for him even though he didnt perform well, but everything was gone once he faked an injury during England tour only to be fit for the champions league.

Harbhajan advised rest; Uday Kaul to lead Punjab In absence of Harbhajan Singh [ Images ], who has been advised rest for pain in his shinbone, Uday Kaul will lead Punjab [ Images ] in their Ranji Trophy Elite division match against Railways at the PCA cricket stadium, Mohali, on Tuesday. Following his dismal performance in the West Indies [ Images ] and Lord's Test in England earlier this summer, Harbhajan has been left out of the national team. Since then he missed the five-match ODI series against England and three-match Test series against the West Indies at home. He was also ignored for the five-match ODIs against the Windies, starting on Tuesday in Cuttack. Harbhajan also did not have a great run in the previous three Ranji matches. Punjab will be playing their fourth match at home on Tuesday and Harbhajan will be replaced by Taruwar Kohli. Harmeet Bansal will replace Sandeep Sharma, while Ravi Inder Singh will be in for Sarul Kanwar for Tuesday's game. Punjab have six points from three outings, with one win, one loss and a draw. While they managed only a point from their first game against UP in which they conceded the first innings lead, in the second game they registered an eight-wicket win over Orissa to gain five points but lost the third match by an innings against Saurashtra. Railways, meanwhile, have earned three points from equal number of outings with a draw and two losses. http://www.rediff.com/cricket/report/harbhajan-advised-rest-uday-kaul-to-lead-punjab/20111128.htm

This guy conveniently gets hurt as soon as squad to down under gets announced.This is same guy who rushed to play even ODIs in WI after winning world cup. Tomorrow if the selectors announce his name as replacement he will 100 % fit again. Yuvraj's mom says he had some serious issues since world cup but they are revealed only after he is dropped from tests.Yuvraj is now tweeting he is fine and working out without giving any explanation on his health issue. What the hell is going on with these guys, BCCI is also not lagging behind these guys one day they say Praveen Kumar has chest strain then next day he has broken ribs.He played Ranji game with all those ailments.

atleast punjab can play a bowler instead of him

Harbhajan Singh out of Ranji season

CHENNAI: Things are not going too well for Harbhajan Singh. After being dropped from the Indian team for the Australia series, the off-spinner is now out for the rest of the Ranji Trophy season. It's understood that the Punjab captain has developed spots on the shin bone of his left leg and that has ruled him out till the end of this year. Sources close to the player informed that it's an old injury that has recurred. "He was very keen to turn out for Punjab and do well so that he can come back into reckoning for the Indian team. But now that this has happened, he won't be available till the end of December," the source said. The off-spinner is currently at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore to undergo rehabilitation. The bone scans have been done and signs are not too good. "There is no way that he can start bowling before the end of December. In fact, he will go back home for now and assess his injury later this month," the source added. The off-spinner is reportedly very disappointed that this injury has come at such a crucial time. He was desperately looking ahead to the next few games for Punjab so that he can stake his claim for the one-day tri-series in Australia in February, also involving Sri Lanka. But now that he is out of action for the rest of the year, it's unlikely that the selectors will consider him for the CB series, the team for which will be selected by second week of January. Harbhajan had played the first two matches for Punjab against UP and Saurashtra, but managed to bag only two wickets. Punjab are now on nine points in Group B and it won't be too easy for them to make it to the knock-out stage. In that case, Harbhajan will get his first game on February 4 in the Duleep Trophy, a day before the CB series starts.

Looks like its curtains for Bhajji's national ambitions for a long time. Hasn't done anything in Ranji Trophy, even if fit he may not get picked in the North Zone side which effectively means him being out till the IPL and beyond.

Sad for Bhajji, but life teaches the hard way :((

[King Tendulkar]

So he is out for season with injury. But wait its all fake. He is faking injury. I mean why would he want to play. After all he has been axed from indian team and the only way back in is to take domestic wickets to get back on to slectors radar but apparently he is faking injury. The squad for odi tri series in Aus is also to be announced, it has not been named yet. Yet he is faking injury which means cannot be selected for that now. Also scans have been done at Banglore academy, which show genuine injury and cant play. Wait but they are fake, banglaore academy also in on fake injury scam. Get hazare down there asap! Get well soon Bhaji. Even if you retire now, you retire a legend. I am backing you to get fit and return to fitness and form, the rest will do you good both menatlly and physically. You are still 3rd number spinner in selction ranks. You will be back to play a role again for India p.s I hope Ashwin and Oijha bowl so superbly that they keep Bhaji out. As its all good for Hindustan to have such competition for places.

Why is always sources close to players giving this info to media, what is BCCI doing and how is this source so sure that this injury will heal by end of December. Both Yuvraj and Bhajji are still having BCCI central contracts ,BCCI has team of doctors and physios what are they doing. Why are these injuries coming out only teams for a tour announced or player getting dropped. There is no information on where and when these injuries have occurred.Where are reports from BCCI doctors who have examined these guys.

[Tiger80]

Bhajji and other senior cricketers have become so greedy that they don't even take of their bodies .They just keep playing and playing.The fear that someone will do better than them is also too much in their mind.They don't understand that they should keep themselves fit O/W irrespective of replacement they will be kicked out.

[pensionplan]

Does that mean HS's A grade contract will be downgraded to a C grade one. If so I agree with that.

And now we have Sreesanth magically recovering from a "career threatening injury" as soon as a spot on the Australia tour opened up following Praveen's injury.

[J P K]

^^ :WTF:

[bulbul]

i dont think Central contracts will be make any more difference..... they can even go and play in other T20 leagues besides IPL...

[Laaloo]

Bhajji :sniffle: Where will we get the emotional leadership from now on?

[putrevus]

And now we have Sreesanth magically recovering from a "career threatening injury" as soon as a spot on the Australia tour opened up following Praveen's injury.

Reliable sources say top on the list are S Sreesanth and Abhimanyu Mithun. The Kerala pacer has been in the wilderness for some time on fitness grounds. He played one Ranji Trophy match, but has been out of action for nearly a month. The first thing the selectors will do is to seek the fitness update of the mercurial pacer. Sources close to Sreesanth say he has regained fitness after undergoing ayurvedic treatment in Coimbatore for over two weeks. On Friday, he was on his way Bangalore to report at the National Cricket Academy. Å´ree will report at the NCA on Saturday. He had an injury on the left toe, but is completely fine now. As far as I know, he is fit for national duty, a source close to him said. Again fricking source close to Sreesanth, wtf is wrong with BCCI, can't they have team doctors who give diagnosis and then player if he chooses can have second opinion but at least we eliminate this nonsense of source close to player. Sreesanth if does not get selected to down under will again come up with injury and sit at NCA rehabbing. Both Yuvraj and Bhajji are doing the same rehabbing at NCA now.These guy are just either too lazy to undergo the rigors of local domestic matches or they have too much ego which is stopping them to play in domestic matches. VVS, Sehwag, Gambhir after they got dropped all these guys went back to domestic scene and built their game and confidence back. To put an end to this nonsense once player gets injured he cannot be back with Indian team unless he plays full five matches and shows he has form and also is fit.

:cantstop: November 11 Sreesanth said Ū am not aware of the seriousness of the swelling, but canÃÕ delay it any further because health is important. Only after consultation will I know the duration of recovering out of it, Ūt is definitely career threatening and I loved to play at home, but if I had gone into the game with this, I wouldnÃÕ have completed even half the match, he added. December 3 Sources close to Sreesanth say he has regained fitness after undergoing ayurvedic treatment in Coimbatore for over two weeks.

Hope selectors don't fall for this crap. if he is fit and gets selected that makes sense.
