King Tendulkar Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Gotta love boycott Just imagaine if former indian player said such a thing about dhoni, srini would have him executed
Desi Cartman Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Gotta love boycott Just imagaine if former indian player said such a thing about dhoni, srini would have him executed Forget Srini, social media/tv/ICFers would have criticized it for months as it brings his family into the discussion which is again your culture etc
f.b.m Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Gotta love boycott Just imagaine if former indian player said such a thing about dhoni, srini would have him executed Not really. He just said that its best for Cook himself to take a break and come back stronger. Its slightly different to you going around calling different players a disgrace, corrupt, SOBs, etc.
CSK Fan Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Did Boycott really say that:hysterical: Full quote Geoffrey Boycott, Ex-England batsman on BBC Test Match Special "Only Alastair Cook, his wife and family want him to remain as captain - nobody else. He's being stubborn and it's going to take six wild stallions to drag him out of that job. It's not about Alastair's feelings, it's about the England cricket team. He sees it as a sign of weakness to give it up. It's not - it's a sign of strength. He thinks it's all going to come right when he scores some runs. It's not."
Brainfade Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Forget Srini' date=' social media/tv/ICFers would have criticized it for months as it brings his family into the discussion which is again your culture etc[/quote'] Speaking of bringing family into the discussion, no one does it better than:
velu Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 "Only Alastair Cook' date= his wife and family want him to remain as captain - nobody else." - G. Boycott :hysterical::hysterical:
Iconoclast Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 "Only Alastair Cook' date= his wife and family want him to remain as captain - nobody else." - G. Boycott And 1.2 billion other people ...
King Tendulkar Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 England and cook deserve this. There treatment of their best batsman and superstar KP smacked of total arrogance This notion of team spirit wins all shown up by England. Yes they now all laugh at each others jokes and KP did not. But they need his runs and skills
King Tendulkar Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Loooks like KPs blunt and honest talking on Cooks captaincy was right. Cook should have listened

King Tendulkar Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 KP is no saint either text gate and tussle with peter moores. No saint But scores runs Others are saints but problem is they don't do the business in the middle
King Tendulkar Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Lets not forget KP was top run scorer for England in aus. Yet they axed him, while ass lickers like bell stayed KP having a rightful laugh now at **** Cook
Ram Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 His twitter jabs are EXACTLY the reason why KP was dropped (and should remain dropped) from the English side. He’s the quintessential diva who does not belong in a team sport. He’s the Shoaib Akhtar of England, who thinks his opinion/voice matters above anything else. For eff’s sake, he joked about his captain with players from the opposing team. What more does he have to do? Food poison his team-mates’ dinner? Have you ever had a terrible nightmare in your sleep, but you kinda somehow know that you’re just sleeping and that somehow makes your nightmare less nightmarish? Well, KP’s like a nightmare that wont end for England. The guy divided his team in half when he was part of it. Now, outside of it, he continues to make shameless jabs in twitter while his team mates have the worst time of their professional life. Good riddance, KP.

So true atleast he should see how gambhir behaved after he was dropped.
Ram Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 What does he mean by ghosts ? Apparently the English team stayed in a hotel in London that supposedly had a reputation of being haunted.

JaiRamesh2 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 If they drop Cook they may be able to pick KP' date=' Swann, Panesar, Carberry ,Finn, Chris Jordan[/quote'] KP not happening, Swann's elbow injury has ended his career, Panesar got some mental issues. Might see Chris Jordan and Butler in for Stokes and Prior.
