I know some ppl that like test matches and intls but they absolutely hate Indian Premier League. Why ? you like cricket now you can watch more. no they say.
I am 1 of them. I love CRICKET, so i hate IPL.
@ Moin.....
This topic is 1 kind of fight that used to take place at that Community on Orkut.
@ Topic.....
Well the guys are either badly out of form, or they r silently protesting against something done BCCI, which hasnt gone down well with the team. They cant protest openly, so, may be in this way to raise suspicion amongst public.
The oldies r needed. Sachin, RD & Lax have a minimum of 1-2 years of cricket left in them. These "oldies" only prove to be the mentors for the younger generation.
A Raina, or Pujara, or Mukund or Kohli sharing the dressing room with this Trio, and also watching them play, can help them in shape their games. The young generation is IPL generation. they totally lack temperament to play long lasting innings, that too, CONSISTENTLY. They can learn this only from the oldies.
These very oldies have played well in past tours, and going by their performance in SA, theres no reason why they cant perform in England. SA is way tougher than England. Their bowlers too r far better than a Broad or Anderson or Bresnan.
About our ability take 20 wickets.......if u can get Kallis & Amla out, these Cooks & Pietersens & Bells are nonsense in front of them.
So, the problem isnt with their age. The problem is something else. Even the youngsters arent performing. It looks like a "Collective effort" to perform badly.
