Maharaj .... dont know where you people get your facts ....... the century you are talking about was the start of his bect performance against Australia. After Sydney test .... Australia came to India & they won the first test ..... it was at Kolkata where he showned his grit & determination ... goin on to score a career best of 281 ..... India won that series in India thanks to his performance ..... then again in 2003 -04 ... he was part of squad & was instrumental in India regaining the border-gavaskar trophy as we drew the series .... again he scored two centuries .... in Australia .....so dont know what you mean to say that after his hundred he neveer reached double figures..... he went on to make triple figures .....

Laxman was utter failure on that tour till that last inning in Sydney (which I think revived his career) where he scored 100+ after been dropped twice (at least) and bulk of his scoring was through 3rd man (edges). He was to return back after test series - Kapil & Tendulkar (captain) asked selectors to keep him around in ODIs and he failed even to reach two figures (not once). Funny enough, he was dropped for one match against Pak & India Won.
I would say Pathan is in the same Boat as Agarkar was.

You changed track from test to one dayers..... anyway ... what you are mentioning is the 99-00 series .... his record after that with Australia as under
1) 2000-2001 Australlia in India Played 5 one dayers ...score 45/51/83/11/101
2) 2003-2004 (TVS cup) 102/21/18/22
3) 2003-2004 India in Australia VB series 16/103/106/1/24/5
From 21 one dayers he has played against Australia he has an average of 46.18 and has 4 centuries ... 2 in India and 2 in Australia...... thsi is after your famous 100 he made of edges in Sydney ...... we should be thankfull to Kapil and Sachin they included him in the team ..... his record against the Aussies has been the best .... he hasn't fared so well against other teams .....
Check your facts .......

Exactly !!!
Every player has favourite opposition but they should be atleast average against others.

You are right he has an average of 46.18 against the aussies ..... and an avg. of 5 against Bangladesh ....... think he should concentrate on his record against Bangladesh

Rightly, Laxman is not part of ODI team today. Ganguly should not be part of Test Team at least.
Numbers does not necessarily show correct picture. Numbers are like Mirage. Gotta Grow out of that.

I was responding to your this quote ... that after his century in Sydney was a fluke & he did nothing after taht ... here goes .....
This Sydney century was made on 18 Jan 2004 & India went on to win this match ..... the next match against Zimbabwe ... he again scored a century on 24 Jan ...... the score was 3 for 4 when he started playing ....... India went on to win ..... Then in Pakistan he made 107 in 104 balls with Shoib Akhtar playing ..... this was on 24 March 2004 ...... India won this match ..... he did not play the first match as you righly said & India won ... but he was instrumental in winning the last match & India won the series ...
Funny you shoud say that after the series against Australia Sachin & Kapil asked the selectors to keep him in One day squad ..... he had scored 2 test hundreds and scored two one day hundres in that series ..... stll selectors had to asked to include him in the team ....... funny
