What about MUCH HYPED TEAM BCCI BATTING LINEUP. by halfbloodprince on Jan 06, 2008 03:52 PM | Hide replies
I also agree that there were numerus howlers against Team BCCI. But what about that fact that these guys(8 other batsmen) could not last even two sessions. When was the last time They managed to achieve batting out last day to save a test match.(Apart from against England at Lords)..They failed twice against SA.Go as far as you wish to..One is hard pressed to find any other instance.
Do not let umpiring Howlers divert attention from inept batting of team bcci..And also attitude of some players(Yuvraj running after Depika padukone..dhoni following him)..

Little can be done if two cheats stand at either end of the pitch waiting relentlessly to raise their forefinger !!!
And this when even one wrong decision can and often becomes so decisive.
'Umpiring Howler' is not something that can be taken lightly. Suppose Dravid was rightly given not out to that ball today, it is anyone's guess that India would have saved the match DESPITE the remaining 10 or so bad decisions against India.
And whether a cricketer 'runs' after a lady or not is no business of anybody else.

when two crucial wickets of ganguly and dravid given out in that fashion you cant do much about it. it brings the morale down quite a bit, too.
