What is with the cricket team

I think Dhoni must be rueing the fact that he kept The wall Dravid and Ganguly out of one day cricket team in Australia. India are 98/5 in 24 overs.

BCCI threaten Aussie players of backlash in IPL

After the Sydney test fracas where the Australian players behaved very badly with the Indians, BCCI has warned that that Aussies players will be in trouble. It is sad that the BCCI had to make such a statement after the next two match was played in good spirit.

INDIA missing Sreesanth

India is sorely miss the services of S Sreesanth. The kerala paceman's bowling as well a sledging services are required by Indians. The Andrew Symmonds racism row just refuses to die down. The aussies are trying hard to floor the Indians.
I hope he gets well for twenty20 and ODI's.

Shane Warne to be spin bowling coach for the aussies

Shane Warne has been appointed as the spin bowling coach by Cricket Australia. Good for them,but they ought to remember that great players don't make great coaches(Greg Chappel,etc) and great coaches are not always great players.(Alex Ferguson,Buchanan,etc)

Aussies to exploit triangular love situation in Indian cricket Team

Aussie cricket team,who are masters of sledging,and it's vocal fans have an interesting fodder to to talk about. It seems that a situation, inspired from bollywood movies,has been created in the Indian cricket team. Model-actress Deepika Pudukone was reportedly been seeing M S Dhoni. The cricketer had even invited her to see few matches.
But,recently in Yuvraj's birthday party, she played a perfect host,like any girlfriend would. I don't know what they are up to . But I just hope that this does not becomes distraction and we lose the series.
India is touring Australia for 4 tests, triangular ODI series and a twenty20 match.

Andrew Symond abuse was not racist

Andrew Symonds who was subjected to monkey chants was not racist. I was part of the crowd . It started when just to create some noise every one was making some sounds . The monkey chant is the only one which sounds good in union and every one started chanting it. It was particularly targeted at symonds because of his long hairs and whatever-he-applies on his lips. We indians wouldn't taunt coloured men since we are the same.
This chant is connected to racism in european football ,hence,it was mistaken that we were racially abusing symonds.

International Non-Violence Day?, Tell that to cricketers

On the first ever International Non-Violence Day, things did not go out of control but match officials were on their toes to ensure that sparks flying all over Nehru Stadium does not engulf the second India-Australia cricket One Dayer.
It was the 21st over when Andrew Symonds stepped out to send Harbhajan Singh's second delivery soaring high over the long-on ropes. As the 'Turbanator' completed his over, he apparently had an altercation with Hayden, who was at the non-striker's end and their body language made it obvious that they were not exchanging pleasantries. And Hayden's swagger looked bit prolonged after he brought up his fifty with a mighty six off the off-spinner.
In the 43rd over, the local favourite sreesanth exchanged a few words with Symonds and the drama repeated again in his next over when Sreesanth made a prolonged leg before appeal against Brad Haddin and Symonds had something to say on that from the non-striker's end.

Eventually, Mahendra Singh Dhoni walked up to the pacer, asking him to keep his cool.
words.
Sreesanth finally had his moment when he caught Symonds off his own bowling and went simply delirious. He was screaming at the top of his voice, while Symonds too left not before mouthing his parting.

BCCI scared of Aussies?

I don't understand the logic behind scheduling matches in places during its rainy season. I think, as it was decided before we won the twenty20 championship, the BCCI might have thought that the Australians will whitewash this series . So to prevent that the kept matches in these places.
