Dada the Darling Daring by Indra Sengupta on Feb 20, 2007 07:29 PM
Tyger, Tyger burning bright In the forests of the night. He is the golden day shining On the mountain top- The fields and the meadows.
Dada I see you everywhere; In the sky above us I see Your face in the dark night.
You are the inspiration of One thousand million who find Their life worth living; You made the boundaries wither away One thousand millions dance to your tune.
Shine Dada shine and burn even brighter- Hit hard all senseless illogical Utterences out of the fences hundred miles away.
Live Dada live. Live long! Live strong!! Dada the Darling Daring!!!
India can win the world cup only if the following things are done.. 1. Just bring back ganguly as the captain 2. Drop sehwag and let him play atleast 10-20 domestic matches,if any improvement bring him back otherwise he needs to exit for a while. 3. Now the trouble for indians is the opening pair,i did suggest ganguly and tendulkar to take back their seats as opening pair since this was one of the best opening pairs ever for INDIA... 4. I think Dhoni also can open for india as an optional opener or come at no.3 for his talent is not used to the max. by the indian coach,his powerhitting can really up the runrate during a game... 5. As far as experience is concerned Dravid and Laxman shud both be retained in the ODI squad....or i could suggest to try out dinesh mongia in place of laxman as per odi's are concerned. 6. Yuvraj and harbhajan wil surely b a part of the squad.....let irfan pathan bat at Dhoni's place,dravid at 4... 7. Zaheer and Sreesanth shud be the strike bowlers for india...Munaf shud also be considered!
It is not the team, that is mainly at fault.It is the domestic conditions of cricket that has to be changed.It is not the batsmen, not the bowlers, not the coach that has to be blamed for overseas failure.If someone can help the Indian team, it should be the groundstaff in India.WE NEED PITCHES COMPARABLE TO THE ONES OVERSEAS.we need grassy wickets that will teach our batsmen to play pace bowling.We need to do something drastic, like make indoor stadiums with windy indoors, cooling systems and grassy pitches, that will simulate the playing conditions seen abroad.And also select 40 players( players in peak form from domestic matches to be divided into 3 teams( like red, green and blue)and to play matches competitively all the time(the games need to be recorded as first class matches).Select the cream team from all these teams before a major series, whether it is in India or abroad.Dont give the impression to some of the senior players, that they are forever in the national team.Select the best, play the best-without any politics. Kindly pass this info to the team management or coach
