red_devil said:err because he has scored loads of runs in Ranji cricket rather than just sitting on a chair in front of TV/PC and complaining :tongue:
no offense meant, btw.
MAGNeT said:This match was on same line of the cricket world cup against zimbabwe(during srinath time) needed 4-5 runs in an over 3 wickets in hand
starchazer said:Had he made India won today, you would have said "Why wasn't he included in the team earlier?"
red_devil said:I remember that game. Henry Olanga made a name for himself back then.
Venkatesh Prasad was the last batsman out IIRC.
Bluffmaster said:Yes, ofcourse. Infact that would have made him a hero. The fact that India lost the match today because of his stupid judgment is enough reason to kick his ass out of this team. We need match winners not morons.
thexfactor said:^ Those saying match was fixed probably have never ever played any cricket :no:
Not everyone plays for money, some play for the passion they have for the game
Bluffmaster said:So would you rather have me play instead of him? Hell, I wish that was true, atleast I wouldn't have run like a mad man.
And just FYI, he has played 23 Ranji matches in which he has scored some 1200 odd runs with an average of 37. That doesn't look "loads" to me. I know he is in as an all rounder but it ain't like he is doing a great job at it. He got thrashed today and India could have made it if were not for his stupid running and lack of judgment.
Bluffmaster said:The Match couldn't have possibly been fixed. The emotions don't lie. The look on Praveen Kumar's face when Jadeja committed harakiri and when he finally himself got runout was proof enough of the disappointment he was feeling. Add to that Sachin's performance and expressions when India finally lost.

try fixing a 5 over match in your galli with your friends and colleagues and you will understand the complexities involved 1st hand
PS: galli(hindi/marathi mumbai) = gali(hindi) = lane
