Shame on India..

[deathmonger]

that was a sqaure turner

and bowling on those pitches pakis have best spin attack ever but viru's record doesn't count as it is flat pitch?

Pakistan's strength is not its batting. Of course their players wont be able to score that much. They are a bowling heavy side and more adept at defending low scores than putting big totals on the board.

i am sure you will be labelled a paki for mentioning that by some of our good posters. :haha:

not really. they have decent bowlers but even if they restrict a team to say 250-260 they won't be able to chase it (and 250-260 is a pretty low total nowadays).

[panther]

the current line up will struggle to chase anything over 250

teams really don't have links with curators. don't know about bang but at least in india. if it were so it would all be turning tracks. we didn't lose a single home or test series in the 90s when such tracks were dished out and that team wasn't half as good as this one.

turning tracks or flat tracks

turning tracks in 90s so we could win a lot. then curators and indian team were hand in hand. flat tracks now for more trps and test match lasting five days. also green tracks if curator hates captain.

Yup, that Nagpur loss where we handed Aussies the series still rankles. Thanks to Sharad Pawar for that loss.

final frontier. :((

Yup, else Aussies would still be waiting for their first series win in India since 1960s.

ashwin and ojha are pretty good. ashwin and jaddu destroyed eng in odis here when we had turning tracks.

That happens and it was bad luck. But what Pawar & co. did was a lot worse. Pissed at Dalmiya for losing BCCI elections, he ensured that a green track was prepared so that India would lose and Dalmiya & Ganguly (who was close to Dalmiya) would come under more pressure.

also our batsmen play spin well so even if the spinner is good we don't have to worry. warne, murali, swann, vettori all avg 35+ in india.

We won't get a better opportunity than this time. Hope Zaheer remains fit else we will have Mithun replacing him :nervous:

in tests and fletcher as coach only aaron will replace him unless some other bowler is sent there as a replacement and i can just tell those conditions would suit him so much!
