Again Dhoni dropped Irfan from the crucial next match which was a do or die match despite bowled acceptionally well in previous matches, he kept expensive Ishant Sharma in team but dropped in-form and superb all-rounder Irfan Pathan who is a specialist in Twenty-20 cricket. Again Ojha bowled fantastic but Dhoni dropped him as well like a stupid or arrogant (u tell me what is he) and kept the most useless plyer in the world Ravindra Jadeja in the team and he got the appropriate result, nothing to say! So u plz shut up and accept the fact that Dhoni personall has problem with Irfan Pathan and Sehwag and he is doing in-justice to them and harming Indian cricket.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 20 Jul 2009 06:23:09 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Who's Ponting to lecture on spirit of game</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/17096/#comment-12944102</link><description>&lt;p&gt;fan_india u are really a stupid fan of Aussies, we all know and agree that Aussies are good players (not as good as they were with Warne, McGrath, Hayden in the team), but their behavious is the worst on the field, for u Manish Pandey is nothing but for us Indians he is our up-coming star and more over he is a gentle young cricketer and human being unlike Aussie players or Symonds, see his own team kicked out him for his arrogantness, Aussie as a team they are good but their players are worst and current players are neither so good in Tests nor in ODIs otherwise some Aussie player would be world's No.1 and No.2 ODI players instead of our Dhoni and Yuvraj, or also the Aussies could be No.1 in Tests instaed of No.1 Gambhir No.2 Mohammad Yousuf or No.3 Yunus Khan.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 20 Jul 2009 06:13:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: 'Injustices' done to me, asserts Vinod Kambli</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/17340/#comment-12939427</link><description>&lt;p&gt;djiten099,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cricket is a game of glorious uncertainity and a toss can't make the result of a match most of the time, otherwise the losing team would not play in such cercumstances like in World Cup '96 at the Edens. U can't forget that Eden is the most luckiest ground for Mohammed Azharuddin, before that match Azhar was never failure in the Edens but that day he was fail (scored no runs and got out). So the data of 1st batting side's 90% success is meaningles and just a co-incidence. Kambli is an emotional person and the cry was coming from his heart as he couldn't believe that his team was out of world cup and in-front of the most passionate spectators (Kolkata audiences) of the country and even at the most favourite and special ground of the nation. Azhar was one of the most successful captain, and that time captain was not so much powerful, he had to take decisions after meeting with Team Manager, Coach and vice-captain, and the decision was also looked good when Sreenath took 2 wickets in the 1st over, and also the total of 254 runs made by Sri Lanka was also not a very tough target to achieve, it was India's total batting failure like many other teams in their bad day that cost India lose the match, nothing else. Even we see our current team's worse failure in 2007 World Cup and in T-20 World Cup of 2009, but in 1996 world the team was in better form than the 2007 world cup team and in 2009 world cup- controversies between the captain and some fellow players made the team weaker, ballance-less and dimoralised that's why we were out, but I am saying again- that in 1996 World Cup Semi Fainal in Calcutta (Kolkata) our batting was totally failed and this is very normal in cricket for a team on their bad day, u can't blame the players or captain for that, every time u can't win and also can't hope that other teams are playing just to lose against India, they are also playing to win, so some day u will win and some day the others, this is the game.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 20 Jul 2009 01:39:50 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Who's Ponting to lecture on spirit of game</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/17096/#comment-12624355</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Once upon a time, Australia was the best team in the world, (but ofcourse never in Twnty-20 cricket)! Now they are world No. 2 in ODI ranking. They were No. 2 in Test also some months ago when South Africa grabed the No.1 slot. We have no doubt about Aussies champion status after all they won 4 world cups. But Cricket is the game of gentlemen, and Australian are not gentles at all, make appeal to umpire but don't force him to make a wrong decision for you, Ponting made umpires make mistake by apealing over and over. Aussies sledging is world famous but when Harbhajan replied back, then they couldn't digest it and they cried for their lives, vetaran player like Hayden abused new-comer Ishant Sharma and called him to join in a boxing ring, why? Because Ishant made them furstated on the field, they couldn't face his superb bowls on the field that's why they tried to attack him off the field and shamelessly asked a cricketer to play boxing. No one can count Australia's villianous acts on the field, they have been doing it for unlimited time, can u remember how Symonds attacked Manish Pandey by Aussie's dirty sledging in the Final of IPL this year? But when Sreeshant shoed his aggresion on the field when he got Hayden's wicket, Hayden couldn't digest it and started to criticze Sreeshant, which is really ridiculous..., when the Aussies get a rude reply of their own medicine they just can't bear, lose their calm and start to cry off the field infront of press etc... etc..!!! They act like baby and start to complain off the field for the matters of on-field activities. Well done Fletcher, you have applied a strong kick on the Aussie ass.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 14 Jul 2009 07:51:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: SL release schedule for NZ, India tour</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16913/#comment-12530919</link><description>&lt;p&gt;It is a very good news to have a tri-nation's tournament after long long time, but also a sad news because it is very short tournament with only just 4 matches including the Final match.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 12 Jul 2009 02:00:29 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Yuvraj jumps to No.2 after WI series</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16680/#comment-12253672</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Yes don't support Dhoni who is a single player, support Indian team, and Indian team is so much needed Irfan Pathan in the team because he is very beneficiary for us who can play with both bat and bowl and in a very good form. Even the selectors keep Irfan in the team for tour of Sri Lanka and New Zealand but Dhoni didn't keep him in playing 11, despite bowled very well in World Cup against Pakistan (in warm-up match) and West indies.. Dhoni didn't keep him gain in playing 11 in the next two matchs against England and South Africa..., which cost India very badly as an early and disgusting exit from World Cup T-20 despite being the defending champion...!!! Why the selctors will not want to have Irfan in the team..??? because Irfan won a T-20 match from pressure situation in February 2009 against Sri Lanka or because Irfan was the man of the match in the final of fisrt World Cup T-20?? Is Irfan Pathan not better than some of selceted probale 30 players like R Jadeja, R Ashwin, Pankaj Singh, Wridhiman Saha, Bhuveneshwar Singh, Dhaval Kulkarni, Ajinkya Rahane?? Definitely Irfan is better than many of the cricketers at the moment but dhoni personally doesn't like him that's why the chief selector Srikkanth (Dhoni and Srikkanth both are Chennai Super Kings members and in good agreement realtion) avoided Irfan Pathan with the agreement with Dhoni for some Tamilnadu (Srikkanth's home state) players like Badrinath, M Vijay, R Ashwin in the team, otherwise how the board will not select some talented players like Manish Pandey, S Sreesanth, Shadab Jakati, Sudeep Tyagi, Azhar Bilakhia, Kamran Khan, Rajat Bhatia, Pradip Sangwan in the probable 30, they all played fantastic in domestic cricket last season and also in IPL. Irfan became the 'Bali ka Bakra' of Dhoni and Srikkanth's dirty politics. Only one way remains for Irfan Pathan and that is retirement from international cricket... at least temporary retirement as long as Dhoni is India's captain.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 10:01:30 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Fans celebrate Dhoni's birthday</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16725/#comment-12252969</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Happy Birth day Mahi, May God bless u with full success in your carrer, but please leav your arrogant nature and egoistic behaviour towards team-mates, it harms our team and makes it weaker like we were in World Cup T-20...!!! Learn to repect sniors, because one day u will also become senior to some players like R Jadeja, Ishant Sharma ,Manish Pandey, S Raina, R Sharma, RP Singh, Irfan Pathan, Pravin Kumar... they all are 19 to 24 years old now and when u will be 30+ years old and not remain captain then probably one of all thsese young players will become captain and do the same thing to u as u are doing now with Sehwag, Rahul and Sachin...!!! So please change yourself as an equal captain, fair leader, friendly with all other team-mates (seniors/juniors all), an explosive batsman as u were in your early days in Indian team, we want these all virtue in u and we want our dashing Dhoni back, otherwise remember.... God is seeing all the things and, He doesn't allow anybody with parmanent power on this earth, one day u have to lose your power and captaincy... think what can be happen to u then?? So my prayer to God that He will give u good sense and u will be our beloved always. Again, many many happy returns of the day...!!! Mau God provides u all the happiness u desire and may God makes u more and more successfull, because at the moment your success means India's success. God bless u! Jai Hind...!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 09:42:18 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Dravid among Champions Trophy probables</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16681/#comment-12244083</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Under Dravid's captaincy India won 17 ODI match continously by chasing which is a world record. Dravid won the Test series in Pakistan after 16 years in 2003... while leading India for 1st time, okay? He won the Test series in England as well right before his resignation as captain, India under Dravid was flopped only twice, 1st in South Africa in 2007 and again in thw World Cup '07, but right after the World Cup India won in Bangladesh, won tri-nation tournament against South Africa in Belfast (Ireland), and also won the Test Series in England and Dravid was in great form of his life when he was captain, nobodly else were in such form when they were captain, Dhoni is in good batting form only in ODI but not in Tests but Dravid was successfull batsman in both ODIs and Tests. Dravid's maximum innings were proved as the match-winning knock even from pressure situation Dravid played many match-winning knock and headed India win despite it's batting collapse many times. More importantly Dravid resigned as captain when India was doing very good under his captaincy.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 03:59:29 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Dravid among Champions Trophy probables</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16681/#comment-12243980</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Dravid is not in the team just to play the bounce bowls, his presence in the batting line-up will give a definite boost to the Indian batting line-up, he can save India from any batting collapse, he can bat sensible and positively in any kind of pressure situation... that's why the world call him 'The Wall' and we Indians call him 'Mr. Dependable' as well. We can depend on 'The Wall' in any situation or in any foreign soil, because Dravid is the most succesful batsman in foreign countries more than Indian soil. Dravid is also one of the best fielders in the world, he took the maximum catches in test cricket. What the hell the young guns had done in past 2 years... huh? Only Sachin, Viru, Yuvi and Zaheer were continously performing and that's why India won many matches in last 2 years, and Sachin, Viru, Yuvi and Zaheer they all are senior players, u would say Yuvi a young... okay but he already played 9 years for India from the year 2000 along with Zaheer Khan, so they all are seniors not the young... okay? Now what your young players have done except Gambhir... hah? Gambhir also already played 6 years for India from 2003. Rohit Sharma is totally flopped in international cricket, so it is better for India to drop him as soon as posiible and include Dravid in his place to save Indian cricket dignity with faithfull batting. At least we can be assured that Dravid will play sensible cricket whenever India is in trouble, but we can't expect such things from Rohit Sharma, even we can't have faith on his batting ability but any body in this world will have faith on Dravid's ability.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 03:50:35 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Indian strategy helps Lee with reverse swing</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16657/#comment-12243124</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Sameer bahadur,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don't know about Bhuvanesh Kumar and Umesh yadav's speed but how could u dare to compare them with the West Indian pace batteries of 70's and 80's? oh... man u have to learn many many things yet about international cricket...! Great names Michael Holding, Pattrick Petersen, Gordon Grinidge, Kurtly Ambrose, Courtney Walsh ... ahhh...... my body is thrilled by remembering them..., they were like some dangerous cyclones..., how dare u to compare Kumar and Yadav or Singh with them?? Totally rubbish man...!!! I saw yesterday the bowling speed of your Pankaj Singh from Rajasthan Royals against the Panthers (English county team) in a T-20 match played in the Lords stadium... his speed was 120Km to 130.3KM per hour, not more than that, okay...!!! So shut up talking meaninless things. For your kind info- Irfan might be bowl one or two times in a match with the speed of 120Km per hour even Brett Lee bowls lower than this speed many times in a match, this is called 'change of pace' in cricket, u fool. Irfan's normal speed is 135km to 140km per hour, don't tell lie to only criticize him, don't feel shame to accept the truth. And, do hell with speed..., most important is line and length otherwise Brett Lee or Shoaib Akhtar would be called the best bowlers and better than Glenn McGrath or Wasim Akram. Irfan was lack of form 2 years ago, but now he is in good form with good line and length with a moderate speed, so this is the right time to pick him in the team, he showed his fantastic bowling in World Cup T-20 against Pakistan (Warm-up match), against Bangladesh, Ireland and West Indies, against West Indies he gave only 6 runs in 2 overs and took a crucial wicket while openning the bowling attack (his wicket was India's first break-thru), but the hater Dhoni didn't let him bowl his remaining 2 overs even after Irfan's good bowling with an economy rate of 3 runs per over, what more a captain ask than this bowling figure from his bowler in a T-20 game??? But Dhoni let the expensive Ishant to complete his 4 overs even after the oponent batsmen beating him too much off his short-pitch bowls, Ishant gave 49 runs in his 4 overs in that match and mis-fielded all the time, but Dhoni didn't drop him in next match rather he dropped Irfan (It is clear that Dhoni was affraid that his personal disliked Irfan Pathan can confirm his place in the team by his good bowling and batting which he already had started to show, and one of Dhoni's friends like RP Singh or Ishant might have to lose their place in the team because of Irfan's fantastic form, that's why Dhoni dropped Irfan, 'Na rahega baans na bajegi basuri').&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 03:09:15 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Indian strategy helps Lee with reverse swing</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16657/#comment-12243025</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Sameer bahadur,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don't know about Bhuvanesh Kumar and Umesh yadav's speed but how could u dare to compare them with the West Indian pace batteries of 70's and 80's? oh... man u have to learn many things yet about international cricket...!

Don't dare to say Irfan gives 8 runs per over, he gave 3 runs per over in World Cup T-20 in England last month. Ishant is a valuless over hyped bowler..., and for your kind information- some great retired international bowlers advised Irfan to reduce his speed to regain his line and length that's why he reduced it 2 years ago but not to 120km/hour as u said, u really an enemy of Irfan, he reduced it to 130km-135km/hour but sometimes he used to bowl upto 140km/hour. But from last years IPL... Irfan regained his old superb line and length and he consiitantly bowls with the speed of above 135km-140km/hour. Ishant Sharma didn't even complete his 'Jumma Jumma 8 days' in international cricket but has reduced his speed from 150km before to 130km now..!! Can u think why??? because every batsman become very happy when they see Ishant is bowling against them and beat his every bowl like there is no tomorrow, every batsman beat him in Sri Lanka (in ODIs in February '09), in New Zealand (in ODIs), in World T-20(last month), in West Indies (last week), no captain will keep him in the team after his continious flop show but Dhoni keeps him because he is Dhoni's....., and because Dhoni personally doesn't like Irfan Pathan. See how weak Indian bowling is became in the absence of Zaheer and Irfan? These two are the fantastic bowlers, and we need all-rounders very much in team... because we see Dhoni uses Yuvi, Rohit, Raina as all-rounders but they are not the perfect all-rounders, but Irfan Pathan is the best all-rounder in India after Kapil Dev, be fair and secular to accept the truth, with Irfan's great performance India won many series and cups against the teams like Australia, Pakistan and South Africa under Sourav Ganguly..., how can u forget that? At least Irfan is defenitely better than R Jadeja and Abhishek Nayar..., but see we need an all-rounder that's why Jadeja and Nayar are in the team unlike u said that we have enough batting talent. In World T-20... if Irfan were there instead of Dhoni with his borther Yusuf against England in the 'do or die' match... Irfan has the power to hit the ball out of the ground many times in an over and India wouldn't be out of world cup... he already proved his hitting power even in pressure situation (remember the T-20 match in Sri Lanka), Irfan got the better appreciasion than Ishant, Mathew Hayden praised Irfan right after his debut and Hayden said if any pace bowler Indian team have after Zaheer Khan... than it is definitely Irfan Pathan. Even Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Shoaib Akhtar they all prised Irfan Pathan, Kapil Dev says, 'I don't know myself as an all-rounder, but from my fans I became to know that I was the most succesfull all-rounder for India, but in my eyes Irfan is the best all-rounder in current Indian cricket and one of the best in the world, obviously after Kallis and Flintoff". So if the legendary Kapil Dev finds Irfan the best all-rounder then who the rubbish are u to deny it? India now despereately need to get rid of the bowling-virus called Ishant Sharma from T-20 and ODIs, but we can still try him in Test matches, no problem. but for the sake of God, Irfan and Zaheer duo is too much needed and urgently needed more than any thing to make the Indian bowling line up stronger. Do hell with early learner Ishant, from last 6 months or more he is continuosly failure as bowler (the most expensive bowler in our bowling line-up as every oponent batsman wants to target him for attack) but even though he can't learn anything to reduce his expenditure in bowling... but he is still an early learner for you? Early means what, 1 or 2 years mean early for u or what?? Rubbish early learner. We want the performance and maturity in international level, not the learners, send him to domestic level to learn, not in international level, here u have to come only then, when u complete your learning, this arena is not for learning... this is for performing.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 02:38:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Indian strategy helps Lee with reverse swing</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16657/#comment-12242620</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Yeah yeah Anil,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You will say that about Irfan, but see all the interviews of Indian cricket legends after the announce of 30 players squad for Champions Trophy, every cricket pundit is asking why Irfan is not included??

India needs to be released from the bowling-virus called Ishant Sharma from T-20 and ODIs, but we can still try him in Test matches, no problem. but for the sake of God, Irfan and Zaheer duo is too much needed and urgently needed more than any thing to strengthen the Indian bowling line up. Do hell with early learner Ishant, from last 6 months or more he is  continuosly failure as bowler (the most expensive bowler in our bowling line-up as every oponent batsman wants to target him for attack) but even though he can't learn anything to reduce his expenditure in bowling... but he is still an early learner for you? Early means what, 1 or 2 years mean early for u or what?? Rubbish early learner. We want the performance and maturity in international level, not the learners, send him to domestic level to learn, not in international level, here u have to come after learning, this arena is not for learning... this is for performing.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 02:27:25 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Comforting to have Dhoni at the crease: Kirsten</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16587/#comment-12241795</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@ Vichu&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Okay okay.... Dhoni is No.1 in ODI format, we have to agree that...!!! He is a very good batsman in ODI (but not like he was in his earlier days in Inidain team) but he is worthless and value less rubbish in T-20 so he should gently step down from T-20 as Pakistan's Younis Khan did, but I know Dhoni will not do this because younis is a great gentleman who has the guts to accept the truth and he accpeted his failure as a batsman in T-20 and that's why despite being the champion captain under whom his team won the world cup very recently he felt he is not fit for T-20 format and step himself down but the greedy Dhoni has no such guts and fairness. Some days ago he was thinking very wrong while batting in ODI, he had been thinking that only slow batting to sticking on the wicket will help him to become a great batsman, but he realized now that today's cricket is changed and only those will be praised in today's cricket who play aggressively and demolish the oponent like Yuvraj Singh and Virender Sehwag (I am not mentionning here the master-blaster Sachin Tendulkar's name because he is above all, the 'Shahenshah' of cricket, the batting maestro and the true legend of cricket, just like Amitabh Bachchan in bollywood or Maradonna in football), So Dhoni might took some advise from Sachin or somebody else like coach Gary and that's why we saw him a changed batsman with some attacking attitude in West Indies but still not like the old Dhoni we know and we want him to back as he was an attacking and destructive Dhoni, he is not my enemy... after all he is one of our most successfull captains and we want him fire more and more, but we love our other players also like Sachin, Rahul, Sehwag, Irfan and others and Dhoni should show some respect to them as they all are senior to him in Indian cricket, we admire their talent... and we don't like when our captain is arrogant with them that's why our love to those cricketers makes us to criticize Dhoni, but if he becomes fair, plays fair and show some respect towards the other cricketers not only his friends like Ishant, RP Singh, Yuvi, Yusuf, R Jadeja and Raina then he will again regain the love and admire of whole India, so please u think thrice and think with a calm head like a wise person before advising other to think, think, think... and think!!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 01:40:12 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Comforting to have Dhoni at the crease: Kirsten</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16587/#comment-12241783</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Okay okay....

But it is very bad and sad that Irfan Pathan and S Sreeshant are not included even in 30 porbables?? Really it is unfair and something is definitely wrong with the selectors, Irfan and Sreeshant are made 'bali ka bakra' by Dhoni and Srikkanth. Poor Irfan... even being in a good form, he couldn't make it to the national side, it is heart rending.. what more form he can show to attract the selectors and the captain, rather he should announce retirement from International Cricket, because the door of Indian team is almost closed for him, but it is good for him that at least Priety Zinta and Yuvraj keeps faith on him for Kings XI Punjab. Sreesanth also became a forgotten chapter fro India, actually Sreesanth made the things worse for himself by describing himself injured to be dancing in TV show 'Ek Haseena ek Khiladi', he became Dhoni's enemy by celebreting Dhoni's wicket in a starnge way (running and dancing all around the cricket ground) in IPL.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2009 08:37:42 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: India look to take advantage against West Indies</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16444/#comment-12193780</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Murali Vijay and Badrinath are both rubbish players and aren't eligible to play for India, they are in the team just because of Srikkanth who is unfortunately the chief-selector of Indian cricket, he is from Tamilnadu that's why he favours his home players Badrinath and M Vijay.

Rubbish thinking, we play for India's win. It is our national team and thousands other talented players are waiting for their turn, if anybody is performing fantastic in domestic cricket or county cricket or in IPL, give him chance in national team, but if any player despite a part of the national squad doesn't perform even in doemstic and in IPL... how can we play with him? why we play with him?? Only to wait for his potential grow up and till then keep losing the match??? potential players's best platform is domestic cricket or IPL or  country cricket to show their potential to be included in the national team, national team is not for practise to show your potential, it is for in-form and talented cricketers who can win matches by their talent, It is totally non-sense to keep Ishant Sharma in then team even after he gave planty of runs to the oponent batsmen by his rubbish bowling and also by his ever-green mis-fieldings, give chance to other talented players like Irfan Pathan who doesn't mis-field, who is in-form at the moment and who can bat also even in pressure situation he can bat positively.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2009 07:53:15 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Comforting to have Dhoni at the crease: Kirsten</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16587/#comment-12193404</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Yeah only Dhoni is there, nobody else, we only see Dhoni is there.., we didn't see Gambhir and Karthik's great effort in openning (top-order), even if Gambhir or Karthik hit a century but if Dhoni is captain or he is on the pitch while India wins... we only will see Dhoni and we will forget all other players, if India win, we only praise Dhoni, but if lose, we blame all others like bowlers (but of course we will not dare to blame Ishant Sharma), we even can blame the master Sachin or Sehwag for losing any match but that time we will not say that for Dhoni we lost the match.

Why Praveen Kumar is better than Irfan, how many matches Praveen won for India and how many matches Irfan did win??? Irfan bowled fantastically in Australia in his debut Test and ODI series and fulfill the place of Zaheer in his absence. When Miandad said that bowlers like Irfan can be found in Pakistan's street, Irfan replied with his red-hot bowling against Paki batsmen in Pakistan and won the series for India after long long 16 years. Irfan bowled acceptionally well in the T-20 world cup 2007 and he was the Man of the Match in the Final match. He was ICC best ranked all-rounder in 2006-07, but by dropping him then, we spoiled the chance of Irfan to become a world-class all-rounder, even though he is still the best all-rounder in India after Kapil Dev. We can have depend on his batting ability as well, even from a pressure situation Irfan can bat positively and can win the match, he already proved that in Sri Lanka and in India against Pakistan in 2008. The main thing is that we want current in-form players in the team and Irfan Pathan is in fantastic form since the first edition of IPL, in IPL 2009, he played very good with ball and bat both. Yuvraj has faith on him and gives him chance as his main bowling weapon then why Dhoni can't??? Irfan bowled very well against West Indies in T-20 World cup last month, he gave India 1st break-thru by removing Windi's opener batsman and gave only 6 runs in 2 overs, is that bowling figure not good in T-20 to let Irfan to complete his 4 overs quota in that match?? or was that bowling figure very bad to drop him for next 2 matches for an out-of-form player Ishant Sharma?? Ishant Sharma was a good bowler in Tests but he failed in T-20 and in ODIs then why we should give him to play more matches? just because he is young?? We cant cost losing matches for the sake of giveing a youth more chance to prove him, doemstic cricket is waiting for him to show his ability, every cricketers plays domestic cricket to prove themselves even Zaheer and Sehwag was dropped to play domestic cricket when they were young, then why not Ishant Sharma??? But for you...., No, we should play with Ishant in the team even after he cause India losing the matches by his expensive bad bowling and ever-green mis-fielding, but don't give the chance to the in-form Irfan Pathan, because he is ..........!!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2009 06:36:09 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Indian strategy helps Lee with reverse swing</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16657/#comment-12191330</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Yes Ravi, u are right...!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2009 06:12:40 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Cricbuzz.com: Indian strategy helps Lee with reverse swing</title><link>http://www.cricbuzz.com/component/latest_cricket_news/Story/16657/#comment-12191296</link><description>&lt;p&gt;No Sujith, u are wrong...!!! Irfan is a fantsatic allrounder than anybody else in the team, actually Irfan Pathan is the 2nd best pace bowling all-rounder India have ever produced after Kapil Dev, he lost his form in 2006-07, but after that he started to realize his mistake and came with good swing bowling in both the the IPL, season 1 and 2, he plays good in domestic and county cricket, and bats and bowls well whenever he gets chance in international cricket but he gets only1 o or 2 match to play in a year, this is not fair and not enough oportunity to prove his ability, even though he is handy with bat even in under-pressure. Irfan swings the ball more than even Zaheer Khan, but Praveen Kumar is inconsistent, he failed in IPL, in T-20 world cup and again in West Indies but even though i agree that he is a good bowler but not like Irfan's all-round talent.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nascim</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2009 06:09:56 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
