reading that link, and seeing that the indians hav dropped singh and chopra, wat a joke!

the indian 'superstars' are admitidly laxmann, dravid, sehwag and tendulkar, out of them, tendulkar - injured, ok, sehwag, been scorin well, but dravid and laxmann are failures, its about time that the indians and other teams around the world inculding australia select their teams on form and not on hu is a big name and will draw the crowds, tendulkar playin in the forth test was a joke, he was neva gunna score, he hadnt even had a net session, he was onli there 2 boost the crowd numbers, absolute joke i say!

Indians have nothing to lose really. Agarkar,Patel and Chopra have been horribly out of form so they deserved the axe. Yuvraj was unlucky to miss out as he's been asked to bat in an unfamiliar position for his side, hopefully this Jadhav bloke who seems to be a specialist opener will be given a go. At this level you need specialist openors and keepers to cut it.

These new guys can't perform any worse than the guys they're replacing so maybe a fresh injection of talent can do the trick for India. Looking at their stats all these guys have the talent to do alright at Test level. Let's see if they have the temperament and courage needed.

well who would have thought aye!
unable to get 104(or something)

cant believe ponting is having such a whinge....i mean india were in fact playing on the same pitch in that match!

seriously, these 2 teams have the best test series' now. they should start having test series'. the traditionals were complaingin about a lack of "real" test cricket with so many 2 and 4 match series' going on.

m8, u say it was the same pitch, which it was, but as is the nature wit cricket, and in particular indian cricket, and in particular, this fuken pitch, it fell apart like crazy, batting last on this pitch was always a tough job and it just goes to show how important the toss was, wen a test match is over in 2 days, then it aint a test match, its an under 8s style joke! Ganguly had a bitch in the last test because the pitch wasnt an indian spinners pitch, but this time the curator went way 2 far, they may has well played in the grand canyon, its about time that curators were forced to make the best pitches available, or just send test cricket bak 2 the good old days of synthetic pitches, shame on you mr curator....
