banta78 Blogger is FOR newbies and is user friendly unlike what this poster tried to suggest. They may have messed up as they are newbies and blaming blogger for it. In fact in Wordpress you need bit more experience. Though they are entitled to their opinion. But for...

Yes, that's right! Clarke who is in great form and might prove to be thorn in this crucial India VS AUS Test series. He was clearly out bat and pad of the bowling of Ashwin today on first day of Test match. Everyone was convinced...

banta78 I don't think money is really an issue. BCCI is the richest board and could easily afford to pay for it. We see most boards even with much lesser cash-flow wanting to bring in DRS. So, I don't think see any reason not to use it. If they have reservations...

Have this happen to you, that such kind of high profile series doesn't create interest in you. Much can be attributed to India dismal show in recent series. India has nothing to lose, for once at home in so many years. So many...

banta78 It will be an interesting Test series as both teams are in transition. While for Australia, Ponting and Hussey have retired. Likewise for India, Dravid and Laxman have recently retired. So there will be opportunities and challenges for both teams to come...

banta78 He certainly is quite talented and has been performing consistently at domestic level. He has opened the doors for cricketers from the valley who can now aspire to play for the country.

banta78 The guy certainly seems to have the talent. If he keeps focused and keeps working on his game and grabs his chances, then sky is the limit. IPL I feel on the contrary is boon for such fringe cricketers to earn good money and to display their potential against...

banta78 Yes, he is the first person to be included in IPL T20 from J&K. The guy does have the potential and with right grooming and opportunities could really shine on the big stage. He needs to remain focused and work on his game to really go far.

banta78 That might explain former Malaysian PM's fondness for authoritarian rule over democratic systems. These days media and so called media experts tend to over hype such lectures and discourses like its some gospel of truth.

banta78 Sticking to same old combination tends to make players complacent. Only by giving opportunities can we find if someone is worthy or not. It can increase the talent pool and create healthy competition which is good for team in the long run.

banta78 Gambhir is woefully out of form and is very low in confidence. It would have been much better had Dhoni given opportunity to Pujara like he did with Rohit in previous game, as the guy is hungry to make a mark and is in prime form. Also, considering swinging...

banta78 Yes, especially considering everyone knew the ball would early on swing in Dharamshala and we needed a technically sound player to hold fort and anchor the innings. Also most Indian players are attacking in Indian team, don't have stomach to grind it out and...

banta78 I agree with you. I think we should not mind dropping one of the out-of-form openers and not just nurse individuals egos however big the player. And bring in Bhajji who would be far more hungry to prove his worth and would prove useful with the ball and also...

banta78 India's strength has been spin bowling and we should stick with it. As it is pacers are going for runs, so having two quality spinners complementing each other makes perfect sense to me.

banta78 You are welcome. Thanks for participating. Yes, spinners can bring in lot of variety and guile and can be an attacking option like Bhajji & Ashwin. Now what is happening currently with our team is that when our lead pacers get hammered around the park, Dhoni...

banta78 Glad you found my advice helpful. Just don't pay attention to people with negative mindset. They are simply not worth it. Keep believing in yourself and your goodness and you would do well. Cheers! :)

banta78 I agree. Everything that happens has a purpose. Our understanding at best is limited. So we may not follow God and His ways. We need to trust Him and retain goodness within.

banta78 I also feel Indian selectors go more by statistical performance rather than see the temperament of the boys esp. our bowlers. I have seen our bowlers getting hit for four on a decent delivery, and they immediately get defensive bowling on the legs, start...

banta78 I think the problem is the Selectors feel they know it all and are answerable only to board and not Indian public. The Board is also very arrogant in its dealing with media and fans, just brushing off unpopular sentiments and criticism like it is no big deal...
