Vacancy : Good fielder – Indian Cricket team
Share
When Sachin Tendulkar dived to stop Charl Langeveldt’s shot from reaching the boundary line, I was forced to rewind a few hours backward to what Sreesanth did. A simple, straightforward fielding chance at third-man about 20 yards from the line and still Sree spilled it, giving away three runs to the opposition. Contrast this with the penultimate ball of the match when Sachin Tendulkar ran...
Why Ravindra Jadeja can’t be Sachin Tendulkar

There is one thing that separates Sachin Tendulkar from the present young brigade.Of course,age is an obvious answer but I’m talking about discipline.It is this characteristic that has ensured a better longevity for Tendulkar in the international cricket arena.The recent case of Ravindra Jadeja negotiating contract deals with IPL franchises not only shows his lack of discipline but also...

CRICKET AND SENSATIONALISM
Share
What a comeback by Shanthakumaran Sreesanth! The last we saw of him was in 2008 during the Test against South Africa at Kanpur, the same ground where he has now impressed everyone with his comeback. He is reported to have thought of giving up hopes of playing for India and nothing can change his mind and put him on the road to redemption more than the magic spell he weaved in the first innings.

BEHIND THE STUMPS : Australian wicketkeeper after Haddin
Share
During the days of Ian Healy (90s) and Adam Gilchrist (21st century), Australia never had to look beyond the two for second choices for wicket keeping. Gilchrist had to play the waiting game as a fielder before Healy was dropped on account of dipping form and age.
Brad Haddin
When Gilchrist took over, his fitness levels were such that he rarely had to stay out due to injuries. The only instances...
CRICKET IN PROGRESS
Share
India has secured a lead in the 7-match ODI series with a win on a slow and low pitch at Kotla. One news channel is debating with Sourav Ganguly on whether the Australians have begun their dirty tricks once again. This comes after Moises Henriques came in Dhoni’s way while the latter was taking a run. The video footage clearly shows Henriques running across the pitch backwards, away from...
