TestPlayer Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 There are plenty of people that are gonna be disappointed when Rahane gets out with 13 next match.....Entire team is currently a joke. It is still good to see a promising talent to get out with 13 because we can expect him to learn from the mistake and perform better next time. Unlike idiots like Sehwag and Gambhir who never learn from their mistakes. Gambhir got out poking outside off stump for the 27th time yet keeps repeating the same mistake again and again. And Sehwag, do I need to say anything about this idiot? Should be dropped immediately.
Mariyam Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 During the last IPL, when the stadium was being renovated, a part of the scaffolding and some concrete slab(s) collapsed injuring a few spectators. One of those guys was a big wig or related to one, and he had promised to make a case out of it and fight to have their hosting rights revoked etc etc. What has become of that? Can't even find any mentions in the media anymore.
Tridibans_16 Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Did you send 20% to Zardari? Otherwise deal is cancelled. Wasn't he 10 % :nervous: I had only sent 10 % to him.....
rkt.india Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 India need a genuine all-rounder in view of new rules: Dhoni Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni today said that his side was finding it increasingly difficult to win matches with part-timers and would now need a genuine all-rounder keeping in mind the recent changes in ODI rules. He said the new ODI rules which stipulate five players to remain inside the circle for full 50 overs have created problems for a side like India who used to rely on part-timers. "We are used to play with part-timers. Now it's difficult for part-timers to bowl with five players inside the circle. If there's dew, then you don't get turns as well. It becomes more difficult," Dhoni said at the pre-match press conference ahead of the second ODI against Pakistan tomorrow. "With the new rules, you've to assess whether six batsmen are enough or seven. It's very difficult to play with the part-timers and expect them to bowl 10 overs," he said. "What we're looking at is somebody who can fill in the gap -- a genuine all-rounder to bring in the balance in the side. Lower order contribution is also very important especially when you're chasing." Dhoni, however, said under the new rules the batsmen would stand a chance to score big runs if they are set. "Once five fielders are inside, there's tendency to look for big shots which will often fetch wickets. So it's important to treat the deliveries as it comes on their merit without looking for a very big score," he said. "Earlier it was important to get as many runs possible in the three Power Plays. But with the new rules, you've five players inside throughout, which means if you're set then there are very good chances to get good runs. It's about being in good form and playing as many overs as possible. "In the last game, we saw if you've wickets in hand and if your main batsmen are still there, then you can get a lot of runs. You'll have to keep wickets in hand and treat every ball as it comes without thinking too much ahead." http://www.dnaindia.com/sport/report_india-need-a-genuine-all-rounder-in-view-of-new-rules-dhoni_1784780 __________________________________________________________________________ Irfan and Ashwin are two of the best genuine alrounder we have in India. Play them as alrounder, what else he wants. Is Ashwin still a tailender for him?
rkt.india Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Kolkata offers more hope for India-Preview Match facts January 3, 2012 Start time 1200 (0630 GMT) Virender Sehwag is bowled through the gate by Junaid Khan, India v Pakistan, 1st ODI, Chennai, December 30, 2012 Virender Sehwag hasn't fired for a while Ž© BCCI Enlarge Related Links Matches: India v Pakistan at Kolkata Series/Tournaments: Pakistan tour of India Teams: India | Pakistan Big Picture India are again left needing to come from behind, third time in their last four series. A superb display of swing bowling by Junaid Khan crippled India's batting line-up on an overcast Chennai morning before MS Dhoni rescued his team with a fighting century. Such a procession of batsmen to the pavilion appears unlikely in Kolkata, where overhead conditions haven't been as bowler-friendly and the curator Prabir Mukherjee has promised a "typical one-day wicket with lots of runs" with the side batting first having an early advantage. But the visitors have been practicing hard to seal their team's first bilateral ODI series win over India since 2005. Pakistan's seamers bowled extended spells at the nets on Tuesday, with Umar Gul, Junaid and Mohammad Irfan aiming at one stump. India, on the other hand, missed a session on Tuesday and have an optional one on the eve of the game. They may be short of adequate preparation for a game they cannot afford to lose. Form guide (Completed games, most recent first) India: LWWWL Pakistan: WLWLL Players to watch Shoaib Malik was initially picked only for the T20s but has been retained for the ODIs and played a good supporting hand in Chennai. He's had a good tour so far, guiding Pakistan to victory in the first T20 before giving Nasir Jamshed company in his team's successful chase on Sunday. A former Pakistan captain, Malik has struggled to keep his place in the side for a while but his experience has come in handy in this limited-overs series. After his century in the first Test against England in Ahmedabad, Virender Sehwag has failed to fire. He was not picked in March last year for the Asia Cup, and could be under pressure to perform, given he's had just one half-century in his last 10 innings in ODI cricket. Team news Rohit Sharma's poor run of scores in ODIs continued in Chennai and India could consider replacing him with Ajinkya Rahane. However, there is uncertainty over Virat Kohli's availability, as he limped off the field after slipping while bowling in Chennai. MRI scans revealed no serious damage, but his condition continues to be monitored. India (possible): 1 Gautam Gambhir, 2 Virender Sehwag, 3 Virat Kohli, 4 Yuvraj Singh, 5 Rohit Sharma/Ajinkya Rahane, 6 Suresh Raina, 7 MS Dhoni (capt and wk), 8 R Ashwin, 9 Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 10 Ishant Sharma, 11 Ashok Dinda. It seems unlikely Pakistan will make changes, even though Mohammad Irfan proved expensive in Chennai. Pakistan (possible): 1 Mohammad Hafeez, 2 Nasir Jamshed, 3 Azhar Ali, 4 Younis Khan, 5 Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), 6 Shoaib Malik, 7 Kamran Akmal (wk), 8 Junaid Khan, 9 Umar Gul, 10 Saeed Ajmal, 11 Mohammad Irfan. Stats and Trivia Rohit Sharma is 22 short of reaching 2000 runs in ODIs. Kamran Akmal is 70 short of scoring 3000 in ODIs. Quotes "If he keeps on doing that then we will find another great left arm fast-bowler of Wasim Akram's type." Younis Khan on Junaid Khan http://www.espncricinfo.com/india-v-pakistan-2012/content/current/story/599429.html
putrevus Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 India need not just all rounder but lot other players namely good openers, good spinners, good fast bowlers and most important thing a good captain.
CG Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 What Dhoni really Meant was-India Needs Ravindra Jadeja.:hysterical:

jairamesh Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Irfan Pathan :wall: needs to learn how to stay fit. Selectors need to start picking one. Buba Kumar can bat.
JaFanatic Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Yuvraj is no part timer in ODI's anymore. WC 2011' date=' enough said.[/quote'] :agree:
vvvslaxman Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 We don't need all rounders. Just get rid of one of the "no rounder" up the order and include a specialist bowler.
Laaloo Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Just another thing we need in addition to fast bowlers, genuine spinners, new openers, and competent middle order
jairamesh Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 As expected Jaddu the savior to come in Not necessarily, the savior of 2013 will be decided by the upcoming IPL auction and who CSK nab.
Sachin=GOD Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 India also need a genuine Captain and wicket keeper-batsman for the Test side.
munafbhai Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Kick Gambhir' date=' Sehwag and Rohit. Bring in Rahane, Pujara and Rayudu.[/quote'] :clap: I agree
Analyst Maaz Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Inspiration for India? Pakistan have lost their last 10 Limited Over series deciders when the series is at 1-1 or 2-2 with 1 to play since 2003 (post Wasim and Waqar). They are chokers when it comes to bilateral one day series. Most of the deciders are lost after losing the previous game and therefore losing the momentum.
