INDIA IN SOUTH AFRICA

So after one day white wash tests have begun and again India are in diar state at the end of day one. Our batters are not performing they are lacking confidence. India is playing in South Africa, the same place where the same team was unbeatable in World Cup and now what had happen. Lack of determination and confidence is creeping Indian players. They need some sort of motivation to uplift there game.

Hoping for the best for India.

At last a test win in South African soil, that too the emphatic win, Cheers for Men in Blue.

But again in this match our batters have not performed. Bowlers are in good form but to win this series batters have to come to form soon.

Ganguly, Laxman, Zaher and Kumble have proved there come back, now its time for Sahwag to prove that he doesn't gets money just for getting out on 30's.

Again a disappointing series for Indian fans. Whom to blame? Who is the culprit? The whole team, they have not performed as a team. And some players have got too many chances to proof that they are not paid for free. At last the result is loss in both One-dayers and Test.

But now the decision of selectors to drop Sehwag and Pathan is a very good one. This will give chance for youngsters to make a mark in international cricket. And also will teach a lesson to non-performers that if you dont perform well and play good innings in patches then you will be out of the team. No body has bought a permanent seat in Indian Team, you have to perform well to gain it.

Now from 21st West Indies series will start, the team for West Indies this time is relatively weak so I think Indians should not feel any difficulties to beat them and gain the lost form and momentum before the world cup.

INDIA VS WESTINDIES

A high scoring first game and at last a narrow win for India. Batters have perform well and with less support from bowlers. The decision for playing four bowlers is good, infact it should be the formula for world cup too.

The match will also be remembered for Saurav Ganguly's return in One dayers, great come back, after facing so much humiliation in recent past.

The Cuttack airport incidence with Greg Chappel is a sad story. Supporters should understand that place in the final eleven should not be based on region but on performance.

Today second match, and India is testing new combination with five bowlers which is not good. Infact they should play Pathan so that a allrounder sort of player is always present in the team.

Infact you are sounding like that.....
Indian Cricket means Cricket matches which are played by India with other countries.
Now is it understandable, if still you are confused check a similar link that too in Trap17 itself, go to http://www.trap17.com/forums/australian-cricket-t43939.html

One should know everything happening around the world. Cricket is a big game of India and is played and seen in almost all parts of country, the players are treated as heroes. It's a sort of religion in India. Also almost 90% of cricket market is in India.

Now back to game. The second ODI, again a close encounter, mostly India - WestIndies ties are always close matches.

Due to under prepared pitch, the match was low scoring, but interesting. Indian lower order have performed well after 90 for 7 to reach 189. All credit goes to Dinesh Kartik and Agarkar, they have played well in difficult pitch to bat. Dinesh Kartik has proved that his inclusion in team and giving preference above Suresh Raina is not unfair.

Bowlers have bowled well, Zaheer's second spell was impressive and also Sachin was once again proved handy with ball after failing with bat.

All together entertaining match, and now India need to keep the momentum going and win the series. But for next two matches some seniors should be rested and new players should be tested.

I was watching todays match, in begining I was really disappointed by the quick fall of wickets, but due to the hard work finally the've managed to get a decent score. I'm now happy that the Indian Cricket team is getting back into form. Lets hope the future matches will make them more powerful.

Hi PurPleKuSh, as fas as I've heared there is cricket in US, but not popular. The team is right now in their budding stage due to the lack of awarenes about cricket to the US people.
