10 overs 29 runs 4 wickets......

10 overs 29 runs 4 wickets......

well that was the situation...well if India can't achieve a target like that then i don't think that the media is wrong in telling that India is hyped up team...and too some extent even Rahul Dravid accepted that the batting was not upto the mark....

Its time that Indian team should seriously think that is this young team good enough to deliver the goods at all the level......

 

[rahul_parab2006]

i totally agree with shirijt, but then also i will give my vote :SugarwareZ-064:

d] too much experimentation

e] mahendra singh Dhoni (Bcoz of wrong shot selection)

Just confirm this below given news, i heard from one of my friend....

The ball in which Dhoni out, it was a no ball, B.Lee's leg was outside the restricted line, it should be a no ball, if it is true, then it is unfair to Dhoni & Specially with the Indian Team, it can change the result of the game.......

What u say...............:SugarwareZ-064:

YA, PRAKASH...SHRIJIT SAID RITE...
THE DECISIONS ARE ALL PARTS OF THE GAME...

umpires have a less than a micro-second...to take decision...we can't blame umpires...unfortunately dhoni was given out...but brett lee bowled very welll....picked up gr8 5 wkt-haul...

but indians batted very very poor...all will agree to this...

i think now it's turn to sehvag to exclude from the team...and bring ganguly in team...even kaif also should exclude...

pathan should get one more chance...indian team management n guru greg has to rethink over indian batting now !!!

batting failure.....in consecutive 3 games...damn it!
:SugarwareZ-064: wht u say guys?
