The curse of 19?

[Magneto]

Viru's highest Test score - 319 Viru's highest ODI score - 219 Viru's highest T20 score - 119 Amazing co-incidence. Wonder why he always gets stuck at 19.

if this is a curse thank god.

[Magneto]

if this is a curse thank god.

I'd rather have it 401, 251, 151 :P

the difference too is in the multiples of 100 if this is curse, then it is a good one

Hope he makes 119 in a T20 International in the next T20 Cup

we should win one of the next three world t20s if not more. sc conditions similar to ipl happening just after ipl. doesn't get better. also we have ravi ashwin great t20 bowler.

T20 Cup happening just after IPL is the major worry as that's the reason we sucked in 2009 and 2010 T20 Cups - half the squad was injured or burnt out. You can't compete in a world tourney with a team which has just come right after playing a 2 month long tourney. Unless they get a gap/rest of at least 3-4 weeks between before T20 Cup we are gonna crash early.

duh...if all the scores end with 19, there is only one number ending with 19 in ever 100...no wonder you come up with stuff like rpt

interesting find, altho I wouldn't call it "stuck", more like "ending it".

one reason we lost in the t20 2009 and 2010 were the pitches. short bowling destroyed us. plus our bowling sucked. with ppl like kohli , ashwin and improved jaddu i'm far more confident.

Talent wise we have players to win the tourney but if we play the T20 cup right after a hectic 2 month IPL don't think the players can give off their best. It will be akin to a football team playing the world cup right after the premiership season got over, and that's the reason FIFA scheules world cup after a gap of couple of months after the domestic tourneys get over. In both 2009 and 2010 we had injuries to our main players in Zak and Sehwag, especially Sehwag and rest of the players were physically and mentally drained. If BCCI still hasn't learnt this lesson I don't know how it will. There needs to be a gap of at least 3-4 weeks between IPL and T20 cup else we will not even reach the semi stage.

duh...if all the scores end with 19' date=' there is only one number ending with 19 in ever 100...no wonder you come up with stuff like rpt[/quote'] what I was trying to say was that the difference b/w the two formats that are closer to each other is exactly 100, i.e. 219-119 and 319-219 .... if the scores were say 419, 219 and 119, then ..... (I hope I will not have to explain this)

[Ultimate_Game]

when is the world t20?

Next year after IPL :--D Not sure what the exact dates are and I hope we get a gap of 3-4 weeks between the two tourneys but going by what I've seen of BCCI I doubt it :((

[deathmonger]

Is there enough gap/rest period before the T20 Cup?
