Im not appreciating all this India Bashing that the Pakistani's are doing on this forum.

Its very, very immature and childish.

Well played to Pakistan A and especially Taufeeq and Imran Nazir.

I for one, will not stoop to the lower level, that you guys have stooped too.

Appreciate others, and the winner on the day.

Im sure the entire forum will back me up when I say, no more mudslinging

Yes childish indeed, but i see it as a retaliation by them.If you keep insulting others, don't expect them to be silent especially when you go down!

This match doesn't mean much to me, Indians will come up with a much better performance in the Onedayer series. It will be interesting to see how Akhter bowls to inform Indian batsmen.But for me the real question would be, will the Indian bowlers be able to tame Pak batsmen?? Their batsmen are not the best in the world, infact its a bit weak and inexperianced but again the Indian pacers are probably the poorest in the world.

India will be waiting a while

The only problem with the Indians batting is sometimes they are a bit too slow. I know they have Sehwag and sometimes Tendulkar that can score at a fast rate but look at Dravid and Laxman. Great batters with great records but they need to bat a little quicker to give their bowlers more time to bowl the opposition out twice. This is why the aussies have had hardly any draws over the last 5 of 6 years. When you have Langer, Hayden, Ponting, Lehmann and now Clarke who can bat fast then Gilchrist coming in and slaying the bowlers all over the park our bowlers will get a load more overs at the opposition.

They talk about the aussies coming to the end of their reign. We will wait and see. The bowling stocks are sweet. We have Lee who didnt make the starting 11 and is quite young. Gillespie will still be around for a while and we also have some young guns waiting in the wings like Tait from S.A and possibly Williams from WA if he stops getting injuries. Plenty of young batsmen as well. What about Clarke who has around 10 years left as well as Katich and Shaun Marsh from WA who has the whole package.

would like to hear your reasons for believing that. IND's prob has been modernisation. They've always been underfunded and undercoached until recently. I would like to hear where you are getting the 'ability' part in...
I suppose i can then say south africa would never have the ability to produce a quality spinner and learn how to play leg spin.
Oh and you dodged my question on the murali thread too.

People do not need reasons to believe that.

You see, these are seers who know so much about the game that they can accurately predict that India will never make it to the top. God bless their little unbiased souls.

heh.
one thing i learnt through experience is never say never.
Too often have people been proved total idiots for saying 'never'.
