Brad hhogg is better than kumble in ODI's reason being he is a more rounded player. Hogg takes more wickets per game in the recent past than kumble, he is a better fielder and is a handy with the bat. I would always pick hogg ahead of Kumble in ODI's.

Sourav's ad contract has Board buzzing http://sport.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1974082.cms NEW DELHI, April 28: An alleged contract between Sourav Ganguly and an international sports gear manufacturer linking payment to the former cricket captain to the time he spent on the crease has spurred the BCCI to scan the endorsement contracts of all members of the squad.
Ganguly's alleged contract, said sources, figured in the April 6 meeting of BCCI office-bearers in Mumbai. An office-bearer raised the issue. Board boss Sharad Pawar also made a reference to such a contract, though he didn't name the player, in his interview on Friday.
Ganguly, though in good form, scored 66 off 122 balls against Bangladesh, and that set tongues wagging.
In fact, there was a buzz about this alleged contract more than a month ago when sources close to Sourav had clarified that there was no such clause in his contract. Instead, there was a clause of higher payment on better performance and this didn't go against team goals.
The cricket board has started scanning the contracts of players after getting information that Sourav Ganguly allegedly has a contract with a company that links payment to the time spent by the former captain at the crease.
Though BCCI officials have decided to look at all the endorsement contracts of members of the team, it is acknowledged that nothing might come of the exercise. "We are not going to get to see any such contract, for what would be submitted to the board would be cleaned of clauses such as this," a BCCI official told TOI .
The controversy involving Ganguly is part of a wider debate raging in the cricket circles over endorsements impacting the performance of the players.
With the perception that commercial tie-ups were distracting the players, the board seems to have come around to capping the number of endorsements per player at six.
The dominant view is that while three could be allowed for cricketing gear %u2014 shoe, bat, and shirt %u2014 the cricketer could also endorse three more products

Your jealousy has removed Ganguly from the scene. What more do you want? Stay with your Dravid and soon see the fun.

Is it true that he has become a 'Master Blister' so that he won't be able to hold a bat?
Expression of Talents leads win. Hope Australia will retain World Cup. Rest of other Teams have to deveolop their skills to beat them. Otherwise World Cup will ever settle in Australia.

Jules Rimet cup was given permanently to Brazil when they won Football World Cup for the third consecutive time. (Later, it was stolen). Will a similar thing be done in Cricket?
Finally we are at the Final - Australia and Sri Lanka - the two strongest teams. What has the SL team got, that India lacks? In my opinion, they operate as a team, complement each others strengths and are totally committed to winning matches. Whereas our Indian team is status-conscious, thinking of fame and money while playing cricket. The problem is essentially with the cricket-loving people of our country and the media - they gave them exotic names as "master blaster", "Bengal tiger" , "Prince of Kolkata", "Smiling Assasin", "Turbonator" etc to sell their wares and ads. We were all taken for a ride while the media, the BCCI and the players were laughing at us and merrily making money. Today's younger players are influenced by the seniors. Cricket is no more a game played by dedicated players; it is an industry to make money just like Bollywood. The media creates the dreams; the players and officials cash in.

Hi well said,
The title names also have some real meanings do you know it?
master blaster- Blasts a beautiful catch to to opponent, Bengal tiger- Runs out of the field before it roars, Prince of Kolkata- fits to sit in his palace & not for a field game, Smiling Assasin- Died as soon as he was born. Turbonator- Makes only sound no real action. Nazafghad sachin- Name can suit street boy playing tennis ball cricket. Jumbo- crashed before take off. Wall of India- All of above crashed on wall to make it fall.
