GoldenSun Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Thanks Dex. I always used to believe that the famed Australian team had only Martyn who was a loner. I did not know that Gilly had a feud with someone.
Crookbond Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I wouldn't really call Gilchrist-Warne a 'feud'.
G_B_ Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 well ofcourse they are going to deny it now its was practically common knowledge that Gilly and Warne did not get along. just like Bedi, Gavaskar and Kapil did not get along with each other.
Crookbond Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 There's a Golden Gate bridge between "to not get along" and "hate each other".
vamos_rafa Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 A certain Indian coach had got the players trained on De Bono's thinking hats concept..6 months later Indian cricket was facing its biggest crisis :winky: I read that book, it did not helo me either!
Texan Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Not sure if this is a sarcastic post but anyway this just further proves how professional Australian team management and captain are. They take no sh1t from players. Even during mid-series they didn't think twice before axing 2 of their top players with series on line' date=' you need players who r committed not big names who are passengers.[/quote'] :agree:
Precambrian Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 If professoonalism is about being besotted with details that the end objective is forgotten.. then these chaps are professionals. You are two down. Your objective is to atleast draw the series.

You are two down. Your objective is to atleast draw the series. Like I said to draw series you need to have 11 committed players not 11 big names who are just here to explore India.
Crookbond Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Like I said to draw series you need to have 11 committed players not 11 big names who are just here to explore India. Two players - Warner/Hughes were asked not to play cross batted shots in the 2nd innings and yet they did AND most importantly got out. I wonder what happened to "commitment", "professionalism" and "team" there. I also question why those cricket related transgressions were taken lightly than a non-cricket one.
Crookbond Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Talking about being professional can anyone tell me how the F is Steve Rixon a spin bowling coach? No doubt the Australian spinners don't spin the ball. :facepalm:
Precambrian Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 informed spin management, to prevent injuries to the fingers in the long run.
