we can still make the semis but we should do what we always do best,go down swinging with 7 batsmen.It has worked for us forever and we should do it even with these out of touch batsmen.

[Crookbond]

he was in form' date='even last match he did well.not opening with him doesnt make any sense[/quote'] Against Watson & Warner - they like the ball coming on to the bat. But, yeah Pathan would 've opened and let them score 20 runs of 1 over. It is just a moot point in a larger picture for me.

[CSK Fan]

Yeah' date=' poor Dhoni! :(([/quote'] Hey remember the 2 times Dhoni won the world cup for us single-handedly wihtout the help of any bowler. But here its all the bowlers fault for being useless

Dekho dil ko behlane ke liya Ghalib khyal accha hai - fact is it hardly rained and when it did a bit the ground and pitch was covered up very well. You guys can carry on the delusion that we would have done better if not for that rain interval, but the next two matches will show how hopeless our team is.

[Crookbond]

Wait till you see the pitch silly :poink: But, do not play Chawla

But we are in such horrific form that we can't do even if we know what to do. We depend heavily on kohli who i don't consider as a great T20 player. That sums up our fortunes.

[Crookbond]

Yeah' date=' poor Dhoni! :(([/quote'] What's your reason Outy - go ahead - I am all ears! I think you are just trolling though. MTC, Tujhe maaf kar diya nahi toh Sachin ke L Guard ko worship kaun karega! :haha:

[Rohit S. Ambani]

He's doing all this to get into good books of Greg Chappel, Dhoni has rivalry with Ganguly. Greg passionately hates Gangu and Viru.

Please pass this tip on a piece of parchi to AB De Villiers and Mohd. Hafeez. What insight!

if ball is wet.. dont we have towels to dry it up before every delivery?

My reason is that India is a crap side with crap tactics. It won't rain over the next two matches and we are still going to get hammered like we've been for the past 7 Super 8 matches - what kind of weather made us lose the earlier 6?

Not that easy if outfield is really wet.

Pathan got early wickets so many times in recent matches. After Zaheer's first over considering how pitch behaved, should've tried Pathan IMO.

[ganeshran]

LOL, so the weather is at fault now. Little bit of drizzle changed the conditions so dramatically that we got an epic thrashing. Never mind the now habitual middle order collapse, Dhoni's own great batting at a strike rate of 71, selection of chaiwala in place of Sehwag to bowl 1 damn over.

[vvvslaxman]

In that case they shouldn't have used Ashwin with new ball. Look how Maxwell was struggling against Ashwin even after rain. It was a tactical blunder to use up many overs from Ashwin upfront.

At least I worship someone jo worship ke layak hai. Unlike someone who worships someone who plays with more fire in domestic leagues than in international matches
