Bradshaw bowled well in the ODIs and has surely had more match practice than Collins.
Bradshaw is a less effective Test bowler than Collins though. The match practice issue is a point, but then you wonder when Collins will play for the West Indies again. They wouldn't give him any games against Zimbabwe or a "dead" game against India.

Heck, they played Tino Best ahead of him!

On my 1000th post, i am happy to say that Munaf has taken a wicket of Darren Ganga.. Plumb in front..
That's why replays showed him hit outside the line?

It was a decision I'd give, but it wasn't plumb.

He was out and that's it. Dont cry about umpiring now.

For all the complaints that cynical Indian fans have about the new Indian pacers, would they have complained so much if the Indian team had a Chris Gayle? On his day, he's unstoppable, and even a full-strength Indian bowling lineup (or any team's) can't get him out.

Find a Chris Gayle for India, then complain about the bowling.

When did I complain about it? :mellow:

You quoted me saying:


Bleeding much?
No, I am not but you seem to be on mission for being rude. Look at your posts in this thread. So what he wasn't plumb, He was out and that's all matters.

And Neil, Please reserve your thoughts for Steve Harmison.They make a lot of sense.

Oh Please...Chris Gayle cant touch Sehwag as a Test batsman. Yeah on his day he is unstoppable, but against this Indian bowling line up Muralitharan would bat like Tendulkar.

I hate to say, "I told you so"....well actually, I don't hate it at all. So, I TOLD YOU SO.

Hurling a pile of ****, as I said. We need more bowlers, and more importantly, we been better ones. Though the latter I am not sure how we can accomplish, considering we don't have any that I can think of. Not only did we go with too few bowlers, but we went in with crap ones as well.

I still cannot fathom how someone who has played only two ODI's, has not taken a SINGLE wicket, and has been hit for 8.7 runs an over gets a test cap. Look at his domestic record, not enough experience there either to justify anything.

Yea, as much as I am down on India team at the moment, Sehwag is leagues ahead of Gayle as a batsman. That much is just obvious. And I agree with the above comment that this bowling attack, and I use the term 'attack' loosely, can't trouble anyone.

Munaf and VRV must go back to domestic cricket and start learning to bowl all over again. They remind me of Shabir Ahmad, no brains, no stamina, no line/length - very raw at everything they do. No wonder Mumbai team kicked Munaf out.

Whoever sees them as our future should get his head examined.

I share your furstration and opinion. Greg Chapell has detsroyed the morale of the team. His stupid experimentation worked in India where India would win anyway.

This is India's "premium" strike bowler:

Bowling O M R W Econ
S Sreesanth 5 0 33 0 6.59

I don't even want to talk about VRV after seeing his ridiculous batting.
Out with Greg, I say. Wait a minute...maybe he will have VRV bowl underhanded amd he will boggle the West Indians :laugh:

Last series when I said that this is the wrong team people on this board jumped on me. YUVRAJ IS NOT A TEST BATSMAN. All this idiot can talk about is leading the Indian team....give me a break.
