Sidhoni Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 It is painful when you suffer such a humiliation, more so when Pakis won against SA!
Debutant Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 I was really surprised with the bowling of Albie and Kallis. A tailender trying to slog every thing in the leg side and these bowlers were bowling short and lenght bowls and slow balls. Really amazing. This is what they have learnt. At least Morne was trying to bowl wide yorkers and got it wrong but Kallis and Albe
Debutant Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Not denying that Chowla is pathetic but Aswin and Bhajji also bowled poorly. Aswin it seems is more interested in changing his bowling style every match rather than spin the bowl. His ass showing style with 5 min pause was pathetic.
CG Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 yaar We have batting till Ashwin and Bhajji how many batsmen you need. It is not like Sehwag would have made any difference. who knows what shewag might have done?he would have also taken the game away from aussies and the risk i would take rather than play 5 bowlers half of them have no quality.
asterix Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Hindsight is good... Maybe Sehwag got his message across with the help of his buddy Warner...
rkt.india Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 who knows what shewag might have done?he would have also taken the game away from aussies and the risk i would take rather than play 5 bowlers half of them have no quality. yaar what, if, but are all good in hindsight, I didn't have much from Sehwag even if he had played. Doubt he would have survived long against Starc. Guy has 2 innings of any substance since world cup and he has always struggled against Aussie in LOIs.

People here are behaving as if MS dropped Kohli for Chawla. Sehwag was in pathetic form and I am 95% sure that if he played, he would have been dismissed in the first 3 overs. I would like to see him play against Pak though, coz Pakis will just be terrified at the sigh of Sehwag esp. Gul.
Magneto Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 The 0-8 conundrum India's record in T20 WC Super-8s - 0-7 :giggle: Pakistan's record against India in World Cups - 0-7 :hysterical: One of the two will create the enviable record of a 0-8 humiliation after Sunday's match. :giggle: Who will it be? :nervous:
Trichromatic Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 India has already done 8-0. So, team should give chance to padosis.
Crookbond Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Dhoni should improve Rohit's technique! :ohmy: What next? Buy underwears for all people in the team!
Magneto Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Dhoni should concentrate on playing less cricket. Retire from international T20s, and decide how long he wants to play Tests. Can retire from Tests as well since he'll keep playing IPL and CPL. He plays 24/7, and is the wicketkeeper, a leading batsman (in ODIs and Tests in the subcontinent) and the captain of all the sides he plays for. This schedule and the accompanied fatigue has taken out a lot from him physically and he's on his last legs. Should be picky and invest his energies accordingly because still he can contribute a lot for India (in ODIs).
NareshK Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 sitting order in flight to India should be Yuraj Dhoni ----------- Raina Rohit Gauti Sehwag ------------- Zak Irfan Chawla Bhajji -------------- Dinda Balaji Kohli Tiwary -------------- F L E T C H E R :hysterical: Anything is fine than sending Irfan to open. That's just a negative move and its solely for the dugout to feel safe they still have 7 batsmen. In T20, you should go in a positive mood and try to attack from ball one.
Sidhoni Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Sehwag Gambhir Kohli Raina Rohit Dhoni Yuvraj Pathan Ashwin Bhajji Zaheer
Sidhoni Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 The squad is incomplete. I would want Rahane in for Gambhir/Sehwag(Preferrable Gambhir as this s against Pak and i want Sehwag to play vs Pak). And Ojha/Rahul Sharma should have been there instead of Chaiwala.
Marut Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 I would rather take this choke to India's abject surrender.
Marut Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 There was no way the Indian team was going to win with Australian openers in such a form. They looked good to chase down 220. If you don't take early wickets against the most dangerous openers then you can't save the game no matter what your strategies are. Two wickets in the first 5-8 overs would have kept the game in balance. Bringing Pathan so late was a bad move.
bajrang Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 The squad is incomplete. I would want Rahane in for Gambhir/Sehwag(Preferrable Gambhir as this s against Pak and i want Sehwag to play vs Pak). And Ojha/Rahul Sharma should have been there instead of Chaiwala. absolutely!!
Marut Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Rain was like 20% responsible. We would have lost anyway - 140 was below par score. 170 minimum was needed together with better game plan.
Sid Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Out of all the top teams,India I think has hit the least number of sixes.There in lies the problem,lack of power hitting.The bowling was mediocre from the start but batting turned out be way overrated. Need to get Veeru back in the team and I would play Raina at no.4,he is our best T20 batsman,give him more overs to bat FFS.
