Has myLot stopped paying?

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 3 Aug 13

I am back after a few months and see that mylot UI has changed completely. The UI does look much sleeker, but somehow I preferred the older look to this. Also I cannot find the place where the money we have earned shows up? So has...

How do you rate Michael Clarke as a captain?

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 8 Mar 13

When Clarke was first elevated to the post of the captain, I was very skeptical of his ability to be leader on the field. For starters, he is too impetuous in my mind to be a captain. Secondly, I think he feels that he constantly...

Who is a better pick for the third test as opener - Rahane or Dhawan?

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 7 Mar 13

Now that Sehwag has been dropped, the million dollar question is who will replace him at the top. As the selectors have not named any replacement, the choice is between Ajinkya Rahane and Shikhar Dhawan. Rahane strangely has been...

Selection blunders by Australian selectors!!

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 3 Mar 13

The Australian think tank seems to have tanked in their thought process. Going into a test match with 2 front line bowlers, 1 part timer and 2 ODI specialists clearly shows the muddled thinking at the end of the Chennai test. This...

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 3 Mar 13

Spurs moved 7 points clear on top by beating Arsenal 2-1 at White Hart Lane. Goals from Gareth Bale and Lennon within two minutes of each other just before the break were good enough to seal the game for Tottenham. Arsenal did...

Interesting declaration by Michael Clarke!!

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 2 Mar 13

Michael Clarke tried to pull out a Houdini act by declaring the innings at 237/9 in the hope that Aussie bowlers can pick up a wicket or two in the three overs that they will have. Of course things did not work out as planned and...

Do you think India can now wrap this match today?

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 24 Feb 13

Looking at the cracks in the pitch, Ashwin and Bhajji must be very happy to know that some time today they will get a chance to take a crack at the inexperienced Aussie line-up. If India can extend their lead past 150, do you...

Was Pattinson deadly or was it poor batting?

ram_cv @ram_cv (16513) • India 23 Feb 13

I thought the three wickets which Pattinson took were all equally due to pace and equally due to inadept batting. Murali Vijay could not bat out a straight delivery which went through him. Yes, the ball was at 150, but at the...
