All the experienced ones like Sachin, Dravid, Ganuly and laxman cant play the Spin, then how u can expect other to play well..whenever we lost matches they will search for reasons. One comment made by Capt Kumble that , these guys are playing after a long time, then why should they be picked for the TESTS..Leave them behind by not seleecting them. they dont play with real heart,all are playing with some fear or jealous something or the other. Common fools dont try for excuses for the defeat. Accept the defeat, and try to overcome that.
v need to play with 3 spinners with the only pacer ishant. change keeper n bring parthiv patel. he is a good bat n keeps well unlike karthik doing neither well. for this kumble needs to come out of his favouritism. dhoni may b bad as player but even he doesnt do favouritism like kumble.
The Indian team seems to do well in positions when they are challenged. Looking at the Srilankan side before the test started the Indians would be hardly motivated. But now that they have learned their lesson they will fight back. Also previous tours suggest Indians are slow starters
To tackle the spinners India needs to score runs quickly remember when Srilanka toured Australia, the Aussies scored 551/5 decl 7 543/5 decl and innings defeated SL.
How thats possible, score runs fast and give bowlers much time to take wickets and most importantly play the spinners in front foot as Sachin did comfortably till he got out, bring Laxman at 3 and operate with 3 spinners include Ojha or use sehwag effectively in bowling, he turns well than Bhajji.
Nothing as changed when Kumble travels to SRILANKA. Its the same old story for him since 1994. He can't take wickets. so Kumble should drop himself when he tours Srilanka.
He is the worlds worst bowler when he tours srilanka.
What is there to predict? Our cricketers are jaded after a long season and require a rest. But the BCCI will never leave them alone. Tomorrow, if somebody tells them that there is good money to be made by playing a match in Alaska or Siberia in the peak of winter, they will immediately send our guys there. No wonder the Indians look out of sorts.
Can Harbhajan and Kumble be so toothless where Mendis and Murali are so lethal !!? Or the famed Indian batting line up lost their spine completely ? Or just another rank bad all round performance ? This is totally ununderstandable !
the indian players have become stale due to non stop cricket for the last 1 years or so with 3 test series followed by ODI and IPL 20-20 series and they are really fit to play only one day cricket that to 20-20 only and not Test cricket now. besides they want to play well only when more money is at stake even when they are not really fit
