Bangladesh is a young & upcoming side .... who have even beaten Pakistan & Australia in a one dayer ..... the same was true of Sri Lanka when they came into world cricket .... no one took them seriouly till they started beating good sides .... loss to bangladesh ... i wouldnt be bothered about it ... what bothers me is the inconsistent play by most of our players .... they need to work on that ... one match they score some runs & then the next match that effort is not there .... Ireland , holland UAE will come up & have their day in the sun.

Well do we have talent in Politics and movies on a international level???? dont think so .... as far as movies are concerned a small place like Hong Kong is more prominent in world cinema then India ... even though we produce volume ..... as for indian politics .... we are number 1 ... depending on what you are looking at

Agarkar is not playing in today's match and it will not help Indian winning the game. (SA 162/4 34 overs)

RP Singh: 7 0 39 1 5.57

Only performers should be in the team.

BTW, Agarkar is not dropped from the team, he is sick.

If we lose, it'll be because of lack of any bowling attack, Agarkar or whoever.
When Ganguly is the 3rd bowler in the side, it's truly a sad state of affairs.
We are so obsessed with batting that we have picked only 1 international, regular bowler in this game (Zaheer).
If Agarkar had been well, we would still have 2 bowlers.

Match is Gone. Team India Lost another one with 3 balls to spare. Not much of Bowling Option. Dravid could have tried Rohit Sharma lil earlier. He is good Bowling option for ODIs - 43rd over he went for 3 runs.

You were expecting a spinner to replace the medium pacers .... we already have two spinners in the side ..... with Dravid deciding to go with 4 bowlers .. there was no way he would have got the nod ..... if Chawla or Powar had been sick then there was a chance or if dravid decided to field 5 bowlers ..... which in hindsight he should have done .....
