Adelaide Test Pre match and Selection discussion thread

That's not saying much.

Than most visiting offspinners.

Yes we all saw what Bhajji did in England!

If I were commentating, I would be tearing into everyone!!!! Why blame Gangs?

If I were commentating' date=' I would be tearing into everyone!!!! Why blame Gangs?[/quote'] Thats the point he should be but he is after ashwin and he mentioned the reason himself.

[rkt.india]

And we would have still been blaming Dhoni for Australia scoring 550.:giggle:

[saneindian]

Someone needs to show him Bhajji's stats in Australia 4 tests, 9 wickets@73

[gs]

Could also be because he favors Ojha over Ashwin since Ashwin hasnt set the stage on fire exactly. The rest have also fallen flat. So team India is in the dumps at the moment and maybe Dada is frustrated.

MSD is our best bet as a captain.

Ganguly asking Moody: Who would you pick if you were a selector...Ashwin or Harby Moody: aaahh...ummm....well Ganguly: I still haven't got my ans now we know.

[yoda]

If anyone things Harby would have done better than Ashwin here, they are delusional. The fact that Ganguly asked Moody that question itself shows his love for the dart thrower.

Bhajji couldnt buy wickets against local teams

[The Dark Horse]

Why the sudden love for slow left armers, Ganguly?

[vvvslaxman]

Why the sudden love for slow left armers' date=' Ganguly?[/quote'] Ashwin's series against windies clinched the deal for him. Ashwin really earned those wickets. If you throw in his batting skills he was easily the best choice. If there was anyone who deserved an axe that was Ishant sharma.

agree! blaming spinner for not picking wickets surprise surprise he got 3 and ishant again wicket less

[Sidhoni]

I watched till both Ponting and Clarke got fifties. And from there on, only the spells of Zaheer

[pindxb]

Ashwin is the best choice for the spinner's role. And Ojha should have come in place of Ishant. Cant believe how Ishant has regressed in the past few months, even though his pace has returned.

Well, I too came down to wrist slitting. What do you guys think? Can India? I feel India will be lost by end of 4th Day. Aussie's will pile up some 600 runs in first innings and will declare one hour after tea on day 2. India's first innings will fold by tea on 3rd day. Second innings would be a bit more resilient and will last 4 sessions. All in all, we not getting into fifth day. Is there any better word than frustration to express frustration?

First prediction was very much on the mark. Hope others are not.:((

[ganeshran]

dun look possible

[NeutralCat]

lol at this thread, India aren't even putting up a fight or showing any heart, do you still think this Indian team care about anything other than their $$$$$$$ they have no ****ing pride in the country or any thought for us fans, its time we stopped ****ing caring.
