Aussie media labels Indians as FTBs

[peterparker]

our bowler must put more pressure and get the ball to move..oz batting is fragile

[Chalks]

That is what annoys me: ****-ies labelling of us at FTBs takes attention away from the fact that their own batting is just plain rubbish - whatever the conditions. We just made them look semi-respectable by bowling so many four balls, and setting defensive fields when nos. 10 and 11 were batting. That is the biggest :facepalm: of all. In any event, both batting line-ups are sub-standard. Just that in Melbourne they bowled with much greater discipline, and that was the difference.

+1. Almost sure we are not going to see any draws in this series. Both teams not capable of big scores. Whichever team suffers the greater batting collapse will lose.

seriously..if ishant gets that perfect length instead of pitching is shot, then their batting line up is more vulnerable

[Ramzz]

What about the Aussies who cant win a match to save their lives in India ? Shouldnt they win games easily over here because the tracks are so "flat" ? What does it say about them ? If India cant win in Australia, they are FTBs but if Australia or England cant win over here, they are not FTBs ? :hmmm:

No they are not FTB because they can't win on flat tracks. They are bowling track bullies :P

aussie bowlers are BTB (bowling track bullies)...:dance::dance: if they are not,give us the normal sydney wicket,,and we will show who we are..

[exams]

it is all right to be FTB..but it is not right to be (FTP),,,flat track pussies...:hysterical:

High time laxman retires from international cricket. His fitness and fielding is absolute disgrace infront of international cricketers.

:haha::haha::haha: i know it is last day of the year..but dont be too negative

Spot on. Ishant doing this plus Umesh and Zak doing the good work of first test and Ashwin bowling the way he did on 4th day will be very good bowling attack.

its new year...new beginning. hope we come back strong.

Considering your avatar' date=' we need to take your comment seriously???[/quote'] Your name is Danda... Sree always wears his heart on his sleeve.

[wobblydoggy]

If we lose Next match...our own media will outshine OZ media in praising this team.. More than New years day i am lookinng forward to this match...bring it on

The Aussie press is even harder on their own guys. Best way to shut them up is to score runs and take wickets and then swagger around like you own Sydney, they hate that:hysterical: Last year there were Aussies crying in their beer as we racked up 500 after 500 Don't give the convicts an inch, as they will take a mile

Indies have series in Pakistan not vice versa therefore by your logic Pakistanis are FTBs and Indies>Pakistan.

Did I say Indian players are FTB? their record speaks for themselves. All I said was that in this series it gives them bragging rights because of the past history. And no need to bring Pak in every discussion just because you can't defend your team.

why you are getting touchy when people involve pak in discussions ? Do u people never interfere or use analogies :winky:

[jf1gp_1]

we are indeed FTBS and a bunch of over the hill batsmen who are clueless even with a hint of seam and swing.

all 3 can still play a yr or more but i think its time to move

Aussies not able to win in India because their batsmen are FTP (Flat Track Pussies)

:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:

[Cricketics]

Stop hyping the headline like Indian news channel folks do. You should watch how sachin and co. are being cheered when they go out to bat. Couple of news anchors might mention some crap, don't buy that.
