Why are you basing everything on one or two performances?

Why, isn't your last performance a pretty good indicator of your abilities or current form??Why are you basing everything on one or two performances?
Or should you only consider older matches which have been in your favour?

The team that wins the world cup will be the one in good form currently, not a team that was good half a season back and are out of form now. Form counts for everything. If the cup was awarded for abilities then India should have have won at least once more.

Yes it is the abilities of the current squad in current conditions that count. The world cup is not a dog show where pedigrees are awarded.Sorry, my bad
sack the entire Sri Lankan attack because a practice match is infinitely more significant than years of performances in real games
And its no use sacking the entire attack if you don't have better talent sitting at home.

Haha was just about to say that.
If you're basing everything on the most recent performance, India should be on top.
EDIT: In that case, our rankings should be changing after each match.

Haha owned!
Man I hate to keep saying this again and again, and won't bother to say it anymore after this, but almost everything you've said so far, SirDJ, has been illogical. You've been proven wrong numerous times in this thread, yet you continue to be stubborn and continue to argue just for the sake of arguing.

I would, if I considered the West Indies as quality opposition in the first place. And secondly you also have to consider the way they were dismissed.
If I was the coach of West Indies, I would be very worried.

I made that statement without going on all websites to check the rankings.
however if you have 2 Bangladeshi bowlers at 11 and 12 ahead of the likes of Flintoff, Nel, Hall and Kallis
Anderson, Harmison and the rest of the Aussie bowlers to that list
can you really take this ranking that seriously??

Gillespie is hardly proven, but he's shown potential. And don't forget Kyle Mills, he has made some big improvements over the last 18 months. Jeetan Patel hasn't exactly let down New Zealand when he's played either.

1. Glenn McGrath
2. Brett Lee
3. Pollock
4. Ntini
5. Flintoff
6. Harmison
7. Bond
8. Vettori
9. Murali
10. Akhtar - yes even though he is a cheat.

Actually, it seems that you're in the wrong subforum and suddenly changed the subject for no (well, there is some) reason. This is a WC thread and we have all been discussing ODI bowling attacks. Where the hell did test rankings come from? By the way, I did watch the Ashes but I don't feel the need to go around shouting about having followed Indian cricket or English cricket for so-and-so many years to get people to buy my arguments.

I did not say test ranking I said a general ranking not specific to ODI or test.
Firstly, no one is shouting, my text is in lower case.
Secondly if you watched the Ashes then good for you. But if you had been following the England tours in the last 4 years you would not have braught up Harmison.
Thirdly, you specifically said that I did not know my cricket. Normally in a cricket forum that would have meant an insult and I would have dealt with such a rude comment in an appropriate manner. However I chose to inform you that I do know about cricket and have been following it for years.
