Blunders
by Indra Sengupta on Apr 01, 2007 07:00 AM | Hide replies



Blunders in short.
a) Changing captain.
b) Forcing experiments on a winning team.
c) Destroying India's strength in the name
of experiments,
d) Destroying key players one by one, international
ploy masterminded by Chappel, and More,
and meekly accepted by captain knowingly or unknowingly,
f) Captain's failure to motivate the team
and using the team to its strength,
g) Captain's failure to take right decisions on
winning the toss, field setting, bowling changes and so on.
h) Greg Chappel as coch and Dravid as captain
are two worst things that could ever happen to Indian cricket.

Blunders and Scams:
1) Sehwag is a Hand-eye coordination splendor a magician... But someone (coach/captain/peers/media) someone started criticising his game (technique) and spoiled it to an extent that the dangerous player now became a danger in team.
2) Irfan Pathan a hattrick taker (with 2 clean bolds) lost confidance and wasn't even given a chance to play. Why is there no motivation? what are you doing coach? Srilankan Vas was same bowler now getting better every year... why Zaheer and Irfan are degrading?
3) Dravid Mr dependable is coming at #5 whos decision is this?
4) Agarkar is going out and coming back... why is he not permanently out?
5) Harbhajan (like Murli or saqlain) is not a danger to batsmen ... what is the point in keeping him in team? Sehwag can bowl off spin too and break partnerships.
6) Why no one (politicians and top officials and media) talks about improving standards of domestic cricket?


I have a feeling Moody will let Srilanka down in finals...Modern Vibhishan:))

chappel has done the right thing.he wants winning only.that has got tobe the startegy like the aussies.u dont work for losing do you?

so team india should have thought twice before falling prey to a team like bangladesh.they dont know the pitches of the windies.the coach is the ultimate decider.

now why did indians play as self and each decide to do whatever he wntned to but chappel wanted to win

how cud india bat first see what happened to ireland when they batted first.

that should be the moral of this story u winsome u lose some.bermuda was outclassed.
