Cricket_Hacker Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 He's a Saffer...bowling is natural to him :hatsoff:
Number Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Never saw a single delivery over 135 K but each of them looked like close to 140 or 145. Much quicker than Boult's.
TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 The only one who could be dropped based on this match's performance is Zaheer. And he won't be dropped.
Cricket_Hacker Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Never saw a single delivery over 135 K but each of them looked like close to 140 or 145. Much quicker than Boult's. He did touch 146 k in first innings...but mainly around 137
div Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 We would have been chasing 500+ and Kohli is a FTB:giggle:...Ashwin is better test bowler than Jadeja.
Cricket_Hacker Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Why does BCCI refuse DRS? Any real reason?aur Srini mamu ki leela?
TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 We have the worst tail in world cricket' date=' we have the worst bowling attack and one of the poorer fielding/catching sides bar a couple of individuals. With so many holes we can't expect to be a world beater. We gotta upgrade our bowling somehow coz we can't keep on conceding 400-500+ in away Tests.[/quote'] The tail isn't a big issue when the likes of Rahane are batting at No. 6. Frankly it shouldn't even come to a situation where the tail has to save the match. Our fielding is pretty good too. It's the bowling that needs to be good. Zaheer needs to be let go, but at the same time I'm not too excited about any of the other bowlers. Ishwar Pandey could probably be a good test bowler.
Gollum Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Sachin has brainwashed the management against DRS. Simple truth.
Switchblade Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Any real reason?aur Srini mamu ki leela? Seniors were against it.
Ultimate_Game Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 We have too many holes to fill We can't expect to win much, especially away as we simply have too many shortcomings to overcome... 1. One of the worst bowling attack in world cricket who consistently gives away huge totals. 2. Poor slip catching and fielding in general bar a couple of players. 3. Worst tail in world cricket which starts at 5 down and we are lucky to get 50 runs once the 5th wkt goes down.
TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 They lost the first Test series they played with the DRS against Sri Lanka where all the reviews taken by both teams went against them. They've been against it ever since. :giggle:
vvvslaxman Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Too much burden on our batsmen at this point. Bowlers have to step up. In this test on a juicy first day wicket we bowled really horribly.
IndianRenegade Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Agreed, people are going to screw up even if technology exists. Like symonds was adjudged not out during the infamous Aus tour. but howlers can be reduced 99%. I guess a 1% failure rate acceptable considering what is happening now...
Cricketics Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 I know we just lost because we couldn't wrap up a chase, but I have to say, this batting line up is retainable. We should stick to this combination. Give proper chance to all Rohit, Dhawan etc. Rohit deserves his run in test. I know we just lost so people are going mad on those who failed, but let's look at the bigger picture, tomorrow this game will become history and we need to make sure we don't make these players history, they deserve the right to play few more games.
Desi Cartman Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 I was hoping that we would accept des after srt's retirement but I guess now we also need to wait for msd to retire.
IndianRenegade Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 They lost the first Test series they played with the DRS against Sri Lanka where all the reviews taken by both teams went against them. They've been against it ever since. :giggle: And I believe all of them were correct. So I can't see a valid reason..
vvvslaxman Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Okay 6 players stay. Can we swap Rohit with Rahane?
