amiret Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 251 in 40 overs @ 6.00 on a wearing pitch. The aussies have massacred the indian bowlers once again. Thank god the pitches have been Flat & placid this series otherwise we would have lost 4-0 just like in 2011-12.
CSK Fan Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I thought the captaincy and rotation of bowlers was decent. Even the commentators said the same. Kohli will only improve with each match. And so will our bowlers under him (hopefully). Ashwin already seems a different bowler, attacking on the off instead of the leg or round the wicket.
amiret Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Ashwin already seems a different bowler' date= attacking on the off instead of the leg or round the wicket. yes , he even turned a couple of balls on a wearing, 4th day, sydney pitch.
Sachin=GOD Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 BTW its only now that we have a new captain that OP is noticing "ordinary captaincy" - when M$D was captain and we were whitewashed and were beaten at home then it wasn't ordinary captaincy!!!
Sid Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 look for draw ? how ? On this pitch i don't think we can survive 90 overs trying to defend...should go for win...doesn't matter if they lose I am not saying just shut shop from ball 1,play normal test cricket ,no slogs ,no manufactured shots to show aggraashan
Sid Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 Cant change things overnight... cant expect instant results like T20 ckt.. So sit back & wait for 2 full series under Kohli before judging him who is saying remove Kohli from captaincy
bowl_out Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 They had one fairly good bowler until Smith got out... He tired out after an 18 over spell, and then the quicks were massacred. Sixth wicket partnership : 86 off 8.4 overs :giggle:

Sachin=GOD Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Sachin=DOG ' date=before barking pls note in other threads I dont rate Dhoni kaptaani at all in test.I have criticised him number of times ,but cant blindly hate like you :two_thumbs_up: and even otherwise how does Dhoni come into this thread Classy as always.
Sid Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 Classy as always. I prefer being classy with classless fellows like you ,thanks :icflove:
Raghav_12 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Since Dhoni played in only two tests on this tour, I expect result to be 0-2 only. I think we should be able to draw it.

Ashwin already seems a different bowler' date=' attacking on the off instead of the leg or round the wicket.[/quote'] Really ?,this after 2nd days play Virat Kohli's captaincy criticised by Michael Clarke, Ian Chappell Anyways this is not to attack or denigrate Kohli,he will surely take us forward .But at the same time I am not as ignorant as some here ,who have a belief now with a new captain,bowlers will acquire a brain as well.Problem is a pround n deep one. I actually feel for Kohli,firstly we have bowler who cant even bowl one over without giving away boundaries and secondly we have fans like this MTC guy who somehow feels Kohli is a messiah under whom our bowlers will become world beaters.Tough days ahead

There is a clear tactic to target Kohli and get under his skin

CSK Fan Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 yes ' date=' he even turned a couple of balls on a wearing, 4th day, sydney pitch.[/quote'] Turned it from the off instead of from middle and leg. Would call that an improvement
