Pakistan cricket team play too defensive and settle for a draw


The Pakistan cricket team waste a great opportunity to set a world record in Pakistan Vs South Africa cricket test at Lahore


Shoaib Malik's Pakistan cricket team played too defensively to settle for a draw in the Pakistan Vs South Africa test cricket match at Lahore


Younis Khan's brilliant century was wasted as the Pakistan cricket team did not try to force a win in Pakistan Vs South Africa cricket team


Younis Khan made an amazingly fluent century in the Pakistan Vs South Africa cricket match at Lahore, but Pakistan seemed more caught up in the occasion of the great man Inzamam's retirement to bother about saving the cricket test series against South Africa


The Pakistan cricket team under Shoaib Malik for the Pakistan Vs South Africa cricket series seems to lack confidence


The Pakistan cricket team , under Shoaib Malik,surely is one of the most talented cricket teams in the world, but seems to lack the confidence. Any other cricket team would have made an attempt to square the Pakistan Vs South Africa cricket series, but the Pakistan cricket team decided to settle for a tame draw and gave a great chance of squaring the cricket series


Surely, Geoff Lawson seems to be another cricket coach,who is not doing his job of motivating the cricket team


Sounds familiar? Lets hope Geoff Lawson doesn't indulge in Pakistan cricket Board politics as well, like his counterpart erstwhile coach of the Indian cricket team,the self-styled "Guru" Greg Chappell

Inzamam treated badly by Pakistan cricket board


Inzamam Ul Haq should be treated better by the Pakistan cricket board


Inzamam Ul Haq has not been selected as one of the contracted players of the year by the Pakistan cricket board. Inzamam has been treated badly by the Pakistan cricket establishment again and this was the last nail in the coffin for Inzamam


Why cant Inzamam at least be given a hero's farewell by the Pakistan cricket board for his services to cricket?


Inzamam Ul Haq is being made a scapegoat for the Pakistan cricket team's world cup cricket debacle


Inzamam was of course the captain for the Pakistan cricket team in the cricket World cup. But, Inzamam was not the only cause for Pakistan's ignominious exit from the cricket World cup


Inzamam's past contributions to the Pakistan cricket team have been very conveniently forgotten. Very often, Inzamam was the only cricketer to stand up to the opposition in international one day and test cricket matches


Inzamam's treatment shows that Asian cricket teams do not know how to honour their heroes


Inzamam is but the latest cricket hero to be dump by an Asian cricket establishment. Right from the days of Gundappa Vishwanath, to Mohinder Amarnath, Indian and Pakistan cricket heroes have been unceremoniously dumped after a bad performance, without even standing up to applaud their past achievements


Inzamam should have perhaps learnt from Sunil Gavaskar and Imran Khan who probably understood this phenomenon best, and retired after an extraordinary cricket performance


Like Inzamam,Sachin Tendulkar is perhaps still at his best, but should he retire now to protect his post cricket career and reputation?

Who is Ian Chappell to tell Sachin to retire?


There is absolutely nothing wrong with Indian cricket


Every jerk in the country and outside seems to think that there is something wrong with Indian cricket and "something" needs to be done about it


The BCCI needs to avoid this precise knee jerk stupid reaction to Indian cricket


Who is Ian Chappell to tell Sachin to retire


Ian Chappell is just another smart guy who says something controversial and keeps himself in the news (and gets invited by the stupid Indian media) for his "insightful" (ha!) comments.

There is nothing wrong with Sachin Tendulkar- he is playing perfectly well. Look at Sachin Tendulkar's average over the last year and you will see that Sachin Tendulkar's average is better than even Ricky Ponting's average. Surprised? You should be surprised , given the nonsense that the Indian media is feeding you


Inzamam said it best-the subcontinent's media does not support the teams


Look at the way the Australian media reacts to every Australian cricket team's loss. The Australian loss is always either blamed on the umpiring, the bad pitch or the hostile overseas crowds! The Australian cricketers can do absolutely nothing wrong


In contrast, the Indian media would criticize even a match winning innings by Sachin Tendulkar- he didn't rotate the strike , for example.

Look at Ian Chappell's criticism of Sachin Tendulkar's almost match winning double hundred against Australia- he criticizes Sachin for not using his talent,but using sheer determination and focus to score runs. The same Ian Chappell is now saying that Sachin lacks determination but has talent..Please dont listen to these so-called Gurus - including the current Australian coach of Indian cricket

Sack Greg Chappell from Indian cricket team


Greg Chappell should be sacked from the Indian cricket team


Greg Chappell should retire from coaching the Indian cricket team, in fact Greg Chappell should retire from coaching.Period


Dropping Greg Chappell - the best experiment


Greg Chappell, the self-styled "Guru",experimented with the Indian team and batting lineup for over 18 months- the Indian cricket board, should experiment with the coaching position now by dropping Greg Chappell


Greg Chappell seems quite shameless


While Inzamam and Woolmer resigned from their posts after Pakistan's quick exit from the cricket World cup,Greg Chappell seems very shameless and is still looking to extend his infamous stint with the Indian cricket team


Why does the Indian cricket board tolerate this rude,shameless and worthless coach?


As Kapil Dev remarked - Who is Greg Chappell and why is he given so much prominence


In short, the BCCI should get rid of Greg Chappell immediately and start re-building the Indian cricket team

Pakistan cricket team out of cricket World cup!


The Pakistan cricket team is out of the cricket World cup tournament,2007


Pakistan cricket team have lost to Ireland and are now out of the cricket World cup in the West Indies



Who can the Pakistan cricket spectators blame for the defeat of Pakistan?


Who should the Pakistan cricket loving public blame for the defeat of Pakistan in the cricket World cup? Is it the fault of Inzamam, who couldnt motivate his team, or Younis who couldnt accept the captaincy of Inzamam, Shahid Afridi,who got himself banned at a crucial time or Shoaib Akhtar and Asif, who missed a great World cup cricket opportunity


The Pakistan cricket loving public should put the blame squarely on the Pakistan cricket board!


The Pakistan cricket board deserves the blame for the debacle of the Pakistan cricket team not even reaching the Super Eights- the mess up with Shoaib and Asif, the lack of clarity on captaincy, and discipline issues with Bob Woolmer were the cause of the World cup cricket disaster

Ganguly and Inzamam prove cricket experience cannot be purchased from a shelf


Sourav Ganguly and Inzamam,experienced cricketers, have proved that experience cannot be bought off the shelf



  • Saurav Ganguly helped the Indian cricket team beat South Africa in the first India Vs South Africa cricket test

  • Inzamam Ul Haq has enabled the Pakistan cricket team to beat South Africa in the second cricket test.

  • Jayasurya has almost come back from the dead to make the Sri Lankan cricket team potential favorites for the cricket World cup in the West Indies


Do you think the new cricket players around the world lack talent?


Of course not, but cricket experience at the highest level enables you to play the kind of match winning knock that Sourav Ganguly,Jayasurya and Inzy have been displaying against all odds at the most crucial time


Sachin Tendulkar,are you listening? We are awaiting that magic knock by Sachin against top-class opposition-I am sure that magic knock by Sachin is not far away
