Cricket is everybody's games. Srinkans are fighters as well. We had a good chase for runs, but sometimes it happens. we beat widies 3-1 and a marginal defeat like this should not worry us a all.

You call it marginal defeat. No Sir, the way Sachin and Saurav laid the foundation, the defeat was quite unexpected. If the later order fail to finish it off well only God can cave us.

Well said Mohit, Anindya & Rishabh should start watching Kabaddi or Kho Kho because I don't think that they understand cricket. Please stop giving unnecessary comments on rediff.

Dear Mohit, If they would have got out within 10 runs nobody should have blamed them. but both getting 50 goods run in bag and having a havoc 60 ODI centuries between them do u think they have done their job today. See collingwood and Flintoff how to win games out of nothing , they are guiding their juniors to maturity.

Yes. Some people feel that Cricket is a game of one or two like tennis or bowing. It is a team game. If the team can not absorb the shocks and hiccups and can not rise up to the occasion why there are 11 players. While countries like South Africa Australia have batsmen up to 10 down, we still look forward to only Sachin or Saurav to play all the time and all the balls correctly and bring the win for us. In a fanatic fan infested country like ours, logic is always kept in the rack. These fans think bullshit, digest bullshit. utter bullshit and vomit bullshit.
