World's most feared lineup succumbed
In reply to Surya
dujon failed
wow
In reply to beharie
Do you conclude that they couldn't play spin if their life depended on it?
In reply to Surya
help me to unnerstan wha is the purpose of this thread....again ....at this time?
In reply to FuzzyWuzzy
The one off failures of world's most feared line ups..
In reply to Surya
tekking shame out u face???????????????/
In reply to FuzzyWuzzy
Some can't play spin if others can't play pace..
In reply to Surya
Tek yuh beat down and chill - 'Steyned-up' in four days. More coming!!
In reply to Surya
You on here running up and down digging up archives, make yourself useful and go help BCCI sort out day 5 refunds for ticket holders. Most feared batting line up indeed, "fearful of fast bowling ie"
In reply to Entertainer
Some can't play spin if others can't play pace
Historical precedence exists for such capitulation.
In reply to Chrissy
We need your (decade and half) experience in dealing wid licks..
In reply to Surya
u nuh need a ting boss.... u seem to tek dem lixx like pros
In reply to CW
But,we lack your natural "cool" flair for lixx boss..You predict 4-1 for jokes and tek your licks wid "shades" without much sweat..
In reply to Entertainer
Thats not a huge task, only about 500 paying ticket holders.
In reply to Surya
Hey I was one year when he played his last game. Never saw him play, just heard of him so great!
So I pulled up is Odi's stats
http://www.cricinfo.com/westindies/content/player/51657.html
It said his keeping was never tested by spin
It also stats in 169games he had 6(50's) at an average of 23.15.So whats wrong with Denesh Ramdin's average of 20.17 in odi's????
In reply to beharie
Gosh ..I have socks older than you ...
In reply to Surya
I just realized that India was historically cheated by not having claim to the originators of 20/20 cricket .17 overs
1st 20/20
Now run along and enjoy 4 day worth of highights on day 5 schedule
In reply to Entertainer
That was not the "most feared" lineup..Wheel and come again!
In reply to Surya
there in lies the difference between expectation and anticpitaion....
Captainceee was mis-understood....
u see he was asked about the musketeers and as he was saying "All 4 one and one 4 all" there was a break down in comms and of course everyone only heard the 4 one part
In reply to SocaFighter
That socks dry rot!
In reply to Surya
14 wins in Hindia, hug dat up , we cyan play spin.
I know you are just trying to distract from your pain from licks.
At least when we use to say we great, we were great, unlike the dust bowls medium pacers bullies.
In reply to kgbcan
There is nothing official about your "#1 rank"..
In reply to Surya
If I were you ...I would start worring about losing Sub-C points
Btw,how many Sub-C points have you accumilated..compared to RSA African points?
In reply to Cleg
Come on man! Don't kick a fella when he is down.
In reply to Surya
Neither is this team bro.... I know you will no longer be in denial after this series. 1-0 in yuh rasss and since yuh have a lot of time find historical statistics of India winning or even drawing a series against S/A after losing the first game.......
In reply to Surya
Where I mention we were #1? We were great..yes!
In reply to Entertainer
You guys are in denial though..for 15 years now and continue to be in denial..
In reply to kgbcan
Even you got licks as the lead post suggests..Anyone can have a bad test match..
In reply to kgbcan
This geezer `merit` every `kick` he gets!
In reply to Surya
You better have them clone Tendy ,Dravid, and Laxman because in a few years time is licks like peas......well it start already...Oh well that # 1 ranking is the shortest reign.
In reply to kgbcan
Thanks for sharing your experience. Wish you were wiser 15 years ago or was it 20 years ago?
In reply to Surya
check out baije.
link
In reply to Surya
About that! but every time I feel down
In reply to Surya
Show me one post where I have given that impression, I don't even post re W.I performance or possible victories are concerned.I am a realist and right now WI can barely compete much less win against most teams. I call it as it is which is why you and India should be very scared.
The only denial on this thread is your ridiculous conclusion about your Indian team striking fear in bowling opposition.
4 Days defeat on an Indian flatbed and you are still in DENIAL
In reply to kgbcan
Equanimity..Sthithaprajna..
Not the type to be euphoric about super highs one day followed by prolonged depths of despair..
Look east
In reply to kgbcan
Not only were we No.1....we were The Best ever...and EVERY cricket fan will agree,except this geezer!
In reply to Surya
No it's more like super highs for decades follow by a roller coaster ride. I can live with that!
In reply to kgbcan
No end for the depth of despair in sight..poor allyuh!
In reply to Cleg
Don't get tie up with Surya, he knows, but likes to try stir things up, I am actually entertained by his antics.
In reply to Surya
We don't need your pity , save it for India's future after Dravid, Ten d and Laxman retires . Two of them out and you cant last 5 days on a flatbed, what will happen when all 3 are permanently out and India has to tour....
In reply to Entertainer
I know you are used to it..but still
In reply to Surya
Thanks for being sympathetic...I too am sorry that Hindia is on it's way to the bottom of the dust bowl.
In reply to Entertainer
When is this going to happen? Surya say it's not true! Oh god save Hindia!
In reply to kgbcan
WI will not be #1 for the next 10 years and India will not be #8..
In reply to Surya
WI sucks....I will admit that.......Hindia may lose their Sub-C dominance now that they are found out.
In reply to kgbcan
We are not hitting panic buttons..That lineup has the quality to get back up and deliver knockout blows..No excuses for the Nagpur capitulation..But at the same time no panicking either..
In reply to Surya
Tell that to the billions in Hindia....it's only a matter of time before they start repainting and firing up some buildings.
In reply to kgbcan
It's not up to me to convince them or you guys..My confidence and assessment are mine only and they are based on Gambhir,Sehwag and Sachin..If VVS is not fit, he is not fit. Time to work out some kinks and get back to business again..As for the detractors, no need to worry about them..They will always find something to take cheap shots at..
In reply to Surya
We were # 1 for years bro, that's right years... India will be # 1 through an Afghanistan like election process for what like 2 months.... Now if that is not bordering on glorifying mediocrity then I don't know what is.
You and BCCI should be paying us for making cricket the game it is , instead you come here ridiculing us during our down years. 50 years of Indian success could not compare to our great reign in those years... Worry not about us cause India is slowly catching us up at that long un turn-able corner.... Be very afraid
In reply to Entertainer
We were # 1 for years bro, that's right years.
You were NEVER #1, bro..Show me the rankings..
In reply to Surya
OK! but you mislead me here....
This is not a cheap shot!
In reply to Surya
Pull up all the past series and see who ruled the roost.. Your reign will not last 4 months bearing in mind that Feb only has 28 days....
Be very afraid.
In reply to kgbcan
Since you are playing on the semantics..What I mean is that it's not up to me to convince you or those mad Indians who burn houses down!
As for the team, they are confident and have the class in the ranks to come back and come back strong..
In reply to Entertainer
Show me the ICC rankings when you were #1, since you indulging in a battle of digging up archives with me..
In reply to Surya
.
Hmmmm.............
Ball tampering?
In reply to Surya
Are you making an unofficial request ?
In reply to Surya
All joking aside, I really hope they do bounce back.
In reply to kgbcan
It was similar story against SA in 2008. India came from behind to square the series..
In reply to Surya
Look where they have your team ranked, isn't that enough evidence to know that those rankings are questionable.
Historical evidence of defeat upon defeat is more reliable than a tainted ranking system influenced by you know who...
In reply to Surya
See, what concerns me is not the batting is mostly India's bowling they look toothless against the Saffies.
In reply to kgbcan
You work with what you have. They have enabled us to win test matches..Do I want a McGrath or a Steyn? Absolutely..But, I won't lose sleep over it..
Batting is our strength and we expect them to take on Steyn and whoever else and place us in a position of strength.
In reply to Surya
Whatever happened to the ICC investigation into the unprepared wicket?
Don't understand why we need three pages for this thread.
I understand Surya's point.
WI IN THEIR prime had a one-off loss to Pak and rebounded.
India yesterday had a one-off loss to the Saffies and knowing the Saffies susceptibility to spin and the fact they are playing in India, I expect India to rebound and show the world the champions they are.
I have no problem with that.
In reply to Larr Pullo
That's (a) different bitch!
In reply to analyst-kid
Why do you have to be a spoilsport?
Man cyan have a little fun with Surwa?
Surya
Is a dust bowl on the menu for SA?
In reply to Ridge
Yes..rightly so..If SA are eager to annex the #1 ranking, they have to win in all conditions,ent?
In reply to Surya
I agree they must win in all conditions
but SA spinners are better than Harbajan
& Coy.Wait and see Botha will pelt down a
few
In reply to Ridge
SA are not playing Pakistan..
In reply to Surya
u gone with this nonsense again mate. u know better man
In reply to Surya
all yuh gine run out of white flags when di saffies dun wid yuh
ah know yuh wont fuget i am sure you had a hand in writing this
Mikey dread in dem pwefen .Back in the days when men were men and Bedi's men were flag wavers
In reply to Surya
How come with dat billion people and counting ya'll have NEVER produced a Holding, Marshall or Ambrose?
In reply to ponderiver
ah know yuh wont fuget i am sure you had a hand in writing this
You want to be careful showing that link, bro, because it reveals a lot more than you think. Beamers, for one.
In reply to Verstehen
Even the most sophisticated "Carbon dating" techniques fail to reveal the age in which it occured, so we have to rely on ponde and dem..
In reply to Larr Pullo
and where were u when smith ordered to leave the grass in j'bourg.... stuck up in colonial mode perennially!!!
saf has the best team in world cricket. all they need is a spinner and a pair.
In reply to 1Desiabnu
but they have to win their own home series!!!
