Not in ODIs.What happened to Mishra? Is he still around the Indian set up?
*burrrrrp..* that Kiwi fry tested good!
Ahhh. vcs, the perennial optimistWell, India got hammered even worse than this in NZ a few months before WC '03 and then made it to the final, so perhaps all is not lost yet.
That is an awesome batting line-up.Keeping my fingers crossed till April 2...The Indian batting lineup (of Veeru, Sach, Gauti, Kohli, Raina, Captain Cool and Yusuf/Waterboy) can't afford not to win the Cup in the subcontinent...
The ODI series had nothing.Were we really that bad?? Did the past couple of months actually happen??
I don't know i think the positive test series hasn't changed the outlook of our future in tests. There is still questions over Macintosh, who fills the role of number three, who's the next wicketkeeper after the average performances of Hopkins, how our best batsmen Ryder will maintain his injury prone body so he can be a realistic long-term prospect, the aging bowlers like Martin, Arnel, Mckay none of which will be around in a couple of years.The ODI series had nothing.
Tests were different story.
WC '03 wasn't played on NZ greentops though, was it?Well, India got hammered even worse than this in NZ a few months before WC '03 and then made it to the final, so perhaps all is not lost yet.
Nuff of the knee jerk reaction guys. Got a gut feeling that NZ's gonna thrash Pakistan in the upcoming ODI series tbh.
