  • Which way will this ball swing ?
14.4     Ojha to Kaif, FOUR, and once again he follows up by stepping out of the crease and lofting the ball cleanly over mid-on for four more
14.3    Ojha to Kaif, no run, once again Kaif gets beaten on the forward defence
14.2    Ojha to Kaif, FOUR, Kaif plants his front foot forward and lofts Ojha over extra cover, he clears the infield and the ball runs to the boundary, Gibbs was in the circle at mid-off

WOW !

Assuming VVS is fit from next game on this is what DC should do for the rest of the matches and get their youngsters as much time in the middle as possible.  The line up should read.

Gilchirst
Laxman
Ravi Teja
Rohit Sharma
Venu
Arjun Yadav
Kalyana Krishana/Sarvesh Kumar
Vijay Kumar
Vaas/Zoysa
R.P. Singh
Ojha

That will give them 6 batsman and 5 bowlers and also it ensures all the local players selected get a look in.

agree with the thrust of your argument..
I would drop venu ..not a long term prospect and move vvs down to #7..he is there for moral support, anyway

honestly speaking hyderabad let go off a huge opportunity here. this was the perfect chance to put themselves right in contention with 6 points ... and on par with mumbai and kolkata ... instead now they linger on par with lowly bangalore.

i do think afridi is to be blamed - what kind of a shot was that ? i do also think that no 5 is not the right position for afridi by any means. it has to be either at the top or below no. 7.

just goes to show that it was not vvs that was the cause of the failures in the earlier games also as was ridiculously alleged on this dg.

gibbs not firing is a major blow. however i cant but help thinking that dc have messed up by picking up a VERY WEAK lower middle order. with gilchrist and rohit sharma all the class and quality is concentrated at the top - while the lower middle order has such luminaries as bangar, afridi, yadav etc.

even scott styris is an inherently third grade player if you ask me.

  • WC03 Final - Ganguly is in pain after a fall
Looks like Dhakkan disChagers have finally discharged their battery completely. From 61/1 in 8 they managed only 140? Only 79 runs in next 12 overs? WTF? I thought not having VVS was making a difference but...

Watching Afridi these day's makes me wonder how he ever managed all those runs in the past.
