    **Official** India v Pakistan

    afridi proved he shouldn't be opening in the one day matches. he shouldn't come in the first 12 or 13 overs, but anytime after that is fine. Why do they persist with hafeez at 6 when he is a genunine opener is beyond me. If he is to be in the side, he should be opening. simple as that. i...

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    i think your talking tests now? and dravid cannot keep in a test match, that's crazy... and if your talking odi's, dinesh karthik doesn't play odi's. MS Dhoni does, and as yet, has failed to impress, far too many one digit scores, with one decent one jammed in beteween. not consistent enough...

    Is it time for Ganguly to hang his boots?

    sounds like a good idea, the only problem being the lack of games with TN. i'm preety sure it's the lack of runs more than anything.

    Most Courageous Act Ever

    i've heard about a batsman who was facing the last delivery on the final day of a testmatch...the opposition needed one wicket to win, and so the batsman basicaly had to survive one delivery.... he apparently let the ball hit him in the chest, instead of using his bat, so that there was no...

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    i think more than likely the indian selectors wanted to send a wake up call to the senior batsman. Can't drop sehwag tendulkar or dravid, ganguls is captain...which left laxman............ scapegoat hard done by, but i think he'll get his spot back soon enough.

    Cricket faces chucking crisis

    yup, if i can chuck a ball really realy fast, i could debut for australia.... chuck super quick deliveries at the bastman, and get them all out...and get told by the ICC to go for remedial stuff for my action. they could bring in a specialist chucker every game

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    i'm not saying they performed better. They are both class players, and at the hint of a loss of form, they were pushed into the side. if yuvy and kaif were in poor form, i doubt laxman wld have been dropped

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    actually, the limit was set because that is when the naked eye could detect a 'kink' in the elbow. HOWEVER, let me ask you this from just general observation of bowlers actions, it seems blatantly clear to me that Murali has a much bigger 'kink' in his elbow as compared to shoaib malik. I...

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    ah ok, now i see it, but that still means, that in his last 11 matches he hasn't been in the best of form. and with players like yuvy and kaif just knocking on the door....... harsh, but maybe the indian selectors were usin the cricinfo site :P

    yup i've seen you post that before, though the cricinfo site does not agree with those stats? are your sources correct, or have i made a mistake?

    Is it time for Ganguly to hang his boots?

    maybe it's time ganguly gives up the captaincy. he should tell the selectors that it's affecting his batting adversly, and he needs to relenquish it to find his top form. This could lead to the end of his career though, as the selectors might decide to throw him out after 3 or 4 matches as just...

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    and of course, if we're talking combined averages, ie, test+odi's yes, his record is impressive though he has been dropped from the one day team,and not the test team. His one day form isn't that good.

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    are we talking one dayers? http://statserver.cricket.org/guru?sdb=filter;playerid=3317;class=odiplayer coz in 2004 alone, his batting average is only 27 odd. 04/05 season it's still in the 27's. In the 04 season, he has no centuries, and 1 50?

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    Interesting how muralitharan who also has a damaged elbow, is allowed to continue bowling, despite him making alot more use of the deformity than malik. Murali's was by birth, Shoaib's was an accident, which occured when he'd already started his cricket career. But really, the end result...

    in the 11 ODI matches that shoaib malik played in 2004 444 runs @ 40.36 with 2 centuries and one 50. 17 wickets @ an average of 17! that's pretty impressive stats... even his career average (baring in mind he had a very slow start to his career, AND he started out as a spinner, not a...

    if pakistan will not go in with less than 6 bowlers, shoaib malik will have to sit out, and hafeez can open with salman butt. the pakistani line up with shoaib malik bowling is so much better and more flexible
