Crashing down to reality - 3rd Test squad vs Pak, 2007-08


Recommended Posts

I have no problem with Agarkar bowling in one dayers - after all, the ten over maximum he's allotted gives him a limit on how much he can hurt India. In tests it is far worse - a truly painful prospect. The thought alone is sickening of him running in, fire in the eyes, gas in the belly and ears blocking the sightscreen, for some 20 overs a day - with his typically pathetic economy rate, the odd good karma wicket here or there caught in the deep or gifted by a generous tailender (and followed by the trademark pump of the fist), and trademark unparalleled ability to undo all the good that the other bowler(s) he bowls with/against have worked for. We've all seen enough of it. A good spell from a seamer, Kumble probing away at the other end and building up pressure - and suddenly on comes Aag, dishing out his usual brand of crap all over the place. A half volley there, a leg stump full toss here and then a wide long hop to atone (and torment some OTHER advertisement board on the boundary) and suddenly it's as if the good bits never happened. No, we don't need Agarkar in test cricket. Keep him away from the game, for the greater good.
:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Yeah, Cricketics seem to have gotten it wrong on Ishant. But have got a lot of things right as well like Sehwag opening, Yuseless, not disturbing middle order etc. Don't be so brutal, man!!
