It is always fun selecting a team, and this being the Indian cricket team, it is funnier still because you know that each selection is probably going to get mud on your face the next time the ...

When India took the big hit it did in the first test at Melbourne, inevitably one of the reasons trotted out was the "need more time to acclimatise" thingy that we all knew would come up soone...

Sriram has got it absolutely spot on when he writes that the sooner the team decides to stop opening with Dravid, the better. I admit I have immense respect and admiration for Dravid. So that ...

It was a strange experience watching Tendulkar bat today, on the second day of the 1st test against Australia in Melbourne. He didn't play amazingly as he played in his prime; he didn't play ...

If the Indians have to learn something from the second day of the Melbourne test, let it be this! Being a team man to the core is admirable but when the team man bats as Rahul Dravid did while...

A toast to Ganguly seems to be the order of the day with all news channels carrying quotes from his teammates, past and present, his family, and his friends. I don't go much for accolades for ...

The announcement by the Indian cricket team's selectors of the line-up for the first two one-dayers against Pakistan has caused a lot of furore owing to Rahul Dravid's omission, as a result ...

To hear the hullabaloo that the Australian media is creating about how the Australian public is going to give it back to the Indians when they tour there later his winter, it might seem that p...

I knew that when it came down to it, showing Dravid the door would be a hundred times easier than doing it to either of the other two golden oldies, Tendulkar and Ganguly. The proof of the p...

There is a lot of discussion happening over whether Andrew Symonds had been racially abused or not. I have read so many articles on this that I feel compelled to put in my two cents on somethi...

This whole issue about Andrew Symonds complaining about being racially targeted by crowds at a couple of venues is a clear indicator that the BCCI is opting to deny the possibility of specta...

At long last, it seems like the BCCI selectors have realised that making Dravid, Ganguly and Tendulkar play in every single limited-overs international makes no sense, keeping in mind that asi...

Somewhere in Australia, a man reviled in India not so long ago must be having a hearty laugh. When Greg Chappell became the coach of the Indian team, he brought a vision with him. That vision ...

Deja vu moments in cricket keep cropping up every now and then. For example, there is the picture of Gilchrist walking in a semi-final in Karachi, 2006, and of Tendulkar returning from injury tw...

Everyone has his own biases, little or big, and I am no exception. If I write this post tomorrow or after the Twenty20 final gets over, definitely the bias of the happenings in that match will...

Maybe this was destiny's way of getting India its next good captain. It probably said - "Oh heck, the BCCI can't do it in a million years; I gotta take a hand myself." Out of the blue, the big...

Today, I enjoy watching Twenty20 more than when I did at the start of the ongoing World Cup. I can safely say it is growing on me. Earlier, I had watched the Twenty20 match in South Africa whi...

There are a lot of people who think what happens in the dressing room ought to stay in the dressing room. In most cases, I would agree with the same but the strange case of the captain who res...

Ah, the answer to the question I put up in the last post! Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly will indeed be part of the new slam-bang quickie format, named the IPL, or the Ind...

The Twenty20 league being planned by the BCCI is going to put some current Indian players in a fix. None more so than the big three - SRT, Ganguly and Dravid.   It would be interesting ...
