Bradman99 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I'm actually on Zaheer's side here, what he said is right. Haddin should concentrate on his own game which has been pathetic before spraying his mouth off and giving India an extra incentive.
adi B Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I'm actually on Zaheer's side here' date=' what he said is right. Haddin should concentrate on his own game which has been pathetic before spraying his mouth off and giving India an extra incentive.[/quote'] maybe haddin did this bcoz only chance of his revival could have been if he is charged at waca nd has fire under the belly..... he did this intentionally so one of the indian would rebut to what haddin said nd then he would say i was charged up with what zaheer said and thats why i scored this big 100 at waca... in short be ready to see a haddin special at waca :omg:
Karan114 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Posted January 10, 2012 I'm actually on Zaheer's side here' date=' what he said is right. Haddin should concentrate on his own game which has been pathetic before spraying his mouth off and giving India an extra incentive.[/quote'] :two_thumbs_up: Apt response from Zak on Haddin's keeping. Haddin wouldn't even be in the team if Tim Paine was fit so he should be worrying more about that! That said, I wouldn't worry about the Indians getting an incentive - the only thing these guys can do is give fans the finger, on the field the likes of Kohli and Ishant are utter rubbish.
jonas10 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 India do break quicker than any team. Abroad that is. The messenger was wrong. If Clarke said it Zaheer would have no response. However for all the Bresnens and Haddins etc that got their lofty comments when they are tormenting India abroad why doesnt India ever return it when they come to India and get served? Bresnen had no comments after the obligatory England ODI beating, same with Haddin when they lost the tests in India...why doesnt any Indian return the favour????
jairamesh Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Coming from a team collapsing in under 100 runs regularly like the pakis. Talk about pretentious diarrhea coming out of some these Aussie dumbwits.
Clarke Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Zaheer Khan seems to be unaware of the ad hominem logical fallacy. He is Attacking the messenger instead of addressing the message. Haddin may be the worst wicketkeeper in the history of cricket . But it is not relevant to the point he is making. "India break quicker than anyone in the world" . The fact that we have established the worst losing streak since 1968 suggests Haddin is right. Epic/Total :fail: Hearing that from a commentator/journalist/writer is one thing and from the opposition team is another. Its the commie's job to comment on cricket, which is not what can be said of Haddin. Few yrs down the line, it will be acceptable but as long as he's playing, it certainly isn't.
jonas10 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 India break quicker than anyone in the world is the 2012 politically correct version of "when you get them down they grovel" Tragically this team doesnt have any richards lloyd etc to punish them for their arrogance.
singhprakash72 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Zaheer or for that matter India should have waited till end of 3rd test to respond to Haddin...in fact this comment should have pushed them harder to perform well . As of now his comment still holds good, till India prove otherwise in 3rd & 4th test. Historically India along with other subcontinental teams have suffered from breaking down against quality opposition overseas ( is this a secret ?). Any reply to Haddin or Aussies should be in terms of actual result in next two tests....this is not a presidential debate that you are trying to win.
FreakazoiD Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I'm not a big fan of Haddin, but on this occassion what he is saying is completely true. Someone mentioned the "thrashing" we gave the West Indies. One, we did not "thrash" the West Indies. "Thrashing" is what India received at the hands of England and Australia - innings losses. Secondly, Haddin is talking about times when things go against us. Not when we are playing on subcontinental flat tracks or dust bowls. Even if we win at Perth, it will never be a "bounce back". Even Bangladesh keep "bouncing back" once in a while when they win the odd game here and there. You bounce back with one win when you've lost one game. When you've lost six bloody games in a row, you only truly bounce back by winning six back to make it even.
Desi Cartman Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I want someone to ask him "what happened to Aus when they toured India last ?"

Yes THREE innings loses at your fecking home is what's thrashingly embarrassing, don't recall anyone with such a f *** embarrassing record. And it's a stupid suggestion to say a bounce back is to win six on trot. Which is unlikely to happen with a three year gap to the next overseas test. How about Australia try to win a test match in India, which they have managed in their last two tours! If India draw this series or loose 2-1 it's a bounce back in my book.
The Realist Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 If India are smart then this can be used as a great motivating tool. Pin up on the dressing room what Past it Haddin said, say we will ram it down his throat and go out and win. Dhoni though is too much of a wuss as a captain to do any of this, he will probably go to the Aussie dressing room and apologise for Khan having the temerity to answer back :facepalm:
BERGKAMP Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 that's the one thing i hate about dhoni, how politically correct he is. i wish sometime he was just a tad more of a bastard to the opposition.
Chalks Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Feck I hate these arseholes. If we fail in Oz we're FTBs, but if they fail in subcontinent, it's all the fault of the pitch. If only we could respond by beating them on the field. :mad:
Haarkarjeetgaye Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 stupid response. Once never says what one has to do. Zak should have said Haddin sucks at keeping. thats it
panesarv Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Fully agree with Haddin! Indian team has no character.
CG Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 that's the one thing i hate about dhoni, how politically correct he is. i wish sometime he was just a tad more of a bastard to the opposition. He is but when somebody says something to him,He will not stand for others.
Needforspeed Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Dhoni is more concerned about his image than anything else..Maybe trying to cultivate an 'image' for the sake of the commercials he does. Unlike any other captains, he publicly criticises his own players to show how goody goody he is, always says the same monotonous crap in press conferences to avoid controversies and in England his so called BS 'Spirit of Cricket' when Ian Bell was out as per the rules of the game. I am sure he makes more money from his commercials than from his cricket and he is trying to create a certain screen persona. This is not the Dhoni of 2007 -Brash and aggressive. So now that the foriegners know our captain's weakness they try to feck around with our team and talk any BS. Even if we are losing on the cricket field, there is no need to take any crap off it. The Aussies and the Poms are uncivilized gloaters. You will never see sub-continental people doing that when these feckers come here and run around like clueless headless chickens and routinely get thrashed.
