Feel Sorry for Indian XI especially Jaffer

[Desi Cartman]

Today I went to watch the movie "Welcome" with my friends and the guy in the que behind us was Mr & Mrs Kathik , Mrs Jaffer but Wasim Jaffer was standing at a distance , he was on the phone and did not even look up. Kathik was behaving normally but we could notice that NOT even a single Indian even passed a smile at them even during the intermission people just looked at them and ignored. No requests for pictures or autographs. In the theatre they were in the row just in front of us . Welcome is not a great movie but had plenty of jokes. I did not see or hear Jaffer laugh even once. I'm not even sure if he was watching the movie or just looking at the screen. During the interval I started realizing that I was wrong , it does matter to these guys. I have never seen an Indian cricketer this sad. He was almost as sad and dejected as we all were after the defeat. I am posting this online to tell other fans that do not lose trust as these guys will do well one day. They do try their best and work much harder than we think. Hopefully one day these guys will rule the cricket world just like Aus or W Indies did in the past and if they don’t even then we should not lose respect for them because after all they are the best Indian XI. :isalute:

He was with his wife and looked pretty sad. I dont like taking autograpghs anyway. Its ok to have a small chat if they look relaxed else its better to leave them alone. I have met Hayden and Gilli , I actually asked them for directions to the ticket booth at the MCG 7-8 years ago.

He was probably sad because of some argument with his wife :giggle: Yes they are all human and it's just a game. We will win the series 3:1

play better and stay happy. Jaffer can only blame himself for getting out on both occasion with a RIDICULOUS shots. He is a classy player, but he has to perform on non flat tracks to confirm that he's got in him to be a good opener on any pitches.

OMG living...you met wasim??? what'd you guys talk about?? were you able to reverse the ball by 10ft after taking his tips:D PS: feel sorry for our cricketers...hope they do better in the remaining tests

[Mandrake]

They should keep their chin up and show some fight in the next test....

[Desi Cartman]

They can only do better now :giggle:.

I suppose the only way is up, but the bowling wasn't all that bad, hell even the Aussie commentators said so. They were quite surprised that the Indian attack wasn't as mediocre as people had thought.

May be Jaffer is told that he is dropped for 2nd Test

Jaffer, Karthik and wives must have seen the movie banner "Welcome" and thought that was the only place calling them after the game , and so went there :D

see the score board of 1st test....maybe what I am saying could be true....judging by the fact NOBODY even wanted to have a word or two with our openers...and no question of me trying to "win back support"....after all, I post rather hard hitting stuff against most public opinion with no worry of what others say...everyone knows it ...living..go..get a life :D
