Predator_05 Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 I have given him a lot of stick, but man - what an innings. He won us the game. Well played champ.
Guest BossBhai Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 So we are still agreed on dropping SRT/Gangs -- Removed on request of the user --
coverpoint Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Thats my man Uthappa!!! Have backed him from day one. Always wanted him in the team instead of Ganguly. Thats the man. :finger: to all the gangulians who were attacking him just to get their God back in the team
gator Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Told ya about Uthappa... Seems like Dravid atlast saw some sense..... here is my post from the other thread.... ur definition of an anchor is a definition of an ideal number 3/4 in the classical sense for odis.... right now, we are playing musical chair for the same position between gambhir/karthik/rd.... to me, Dhoni will be the best number 3.... he has shown tht he can mix good defence with offence while coming at tht number... i would give him a 10 match run at that place.... KKD can be pure dynamite at the finish line... Yuvi has got to come at number 4 and RD at number 5... I have always mentioned Uthappa will be devastating at number 6.... he is ur typical Afridi... he has very powerful strokes, not much of a technique which wont matter in the last 10 overs and run decently.....
Guest dada_rocks Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 utthapa utthapa.. why wud anyone have gambhri in place of this guy is beyond me
coverpoint Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Drop Ganguly .... if it means bringing in Uthappa in his place. But first drop selfish Gambhir.... Next series remove Ganguly and play Rohit Sharma instead. Play karthik for Gambhir and leave Dosa man in there
King Tendulkar Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 The old timers are saying:finger: We aint going no where:D
Cricketics Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 i am very emotional today.. fantastic victory...
Holysmoke Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 The Uthappa Appreciation thread. What a Champ!!!:yay:
bigdhoni7 Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 God Bless Uthappa!!! ive been calling for him ever since gambhir failed in the earlier odis (although gamby did very well today and the last game) but damn robin looked gold today! and i was too nervous to come on this site earlier because i might have jinxed him damn he played one of the greatest comeback innings ive ever seen! :two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up:
coverpoint Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 utthapa utthapa.. why wud anyone have gambhri in place of this guy is beyond me Ggambhir should just go away We need Uthappa and Karthik and Rohit sharma in the next series instead of Gambhir and Ganguly.. yeh saale puthe haath waale
The Outsider Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 All hail Dravid the genius He knew we were faltering while chasing 280 or thereabouts targets, knew that we would get off to a slow start if the target wasn't challenging enough and made sure our batsmen were set a target where they will have to pull every sinew and concentrate and run hard to pull off a win. And when Tendulkar's start had made even such a big total appear trivial, Dravid, knowing how we choke in the end at easy targets sacrficed his wicket so that Utthappa and Dhoni could perform to their optimum level. Brilliant inspirational stuff.
gator Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Here is another.... refer to point 4... Inspite of a lot of bad press on the word "Experiments" associated with the indian cricket team, I believe experiments conducted with good vision and planning is the way forward and prevent stagnation.... These are the experiments I would like to see: 1. Dont disturb the opening pair, but get Yuvraj in at 3 irrespective of when the first wicket falls. 2. Give Piyush some opportunities in the first 30 overs against weaker opposition or when the series result is already decided. 3. While chasing big scores, Dhoni must consistently play at number 4 behind Yuvi. 4. Groom Uthappa for Yuvi's finisher slot. This lad is powerful, biffs hard and his FTB style is ideal in the last 10 overs...
sandtest Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Uthappa......Zindabaad.........ek do teen chaar...Uthappa ki jai jaikaar :yay::yay:
