Kept him away for 10 balls.. and you could see VS was itching.. the moment he got the strike, he started swinging

as if going after every ball is not Sehwag's natural style! Actually if that is the case then it shows the difference between SRT and other players like VS and shows the difference in maturity level.

Wasted opportunity in not giving the others a chance. Ohja really needed a game.

gouravk · « **Reply #52 on:** March 14, 2009, 05:05:04 AM »

i would say rohit was the one who judged the wicket the best and played accordingly. it is the others who deserve the blame for being impatient.

justforkix · « **Reply #53 on:** March 14, 2009, 05:29:23 AM »

HAHA - NZ should have provided these pitches in all 5 ODIs - they realized too late that some of batters are to an extent FTBs

But this could be a close game if our bowlers can get this swing too.

he may have judged the wicket properly but he made an absolute mess of the execution.

Caused 2 run outs, pathetic play in the batting power play -- Rohit sucked big time, his stupidity ensuring India being dismissed for a sub par score.

Yusuf Pathan should be dropped . He is good only on flat pitches and only when he comes in to bat well after 45-46 overs . He has absolutely no idea of how to play in pressure situations . If he comes in at the 25-30 over mark , we can very well assume that he will be back to the pavilion in the next 2-3 overs or even less . Bring back Uthappa , atleast he knows how to bat in pressure situations.

In any team batters 6-8/9 are expected to just continue the momentum and are expected to just keep scoring rapidly rather than play rescuers.

Uthappa has such a suspect technique that he got found out even on flatbeds in India so lets not even begin about him...

flashpan · « **Reply #62 on:** March 14, 2009, 08:54:06 AM »

Well , if continuing the momemtum means that making a score 100/5 into 100/6 , I do not need such momemtum.If Technique was such an issue , I believe many international batsmen would never have played for the country . I believe Uthappa offers more for the team at 7 then what Pathan has been offering.

I don't think we should be calling for head of players if they fail in one. YP did not get to bat in the past matches. Team has been focussing on YP coming at a late PP time IMO. They also kept him away from bowling considering short boundaries most of the time. With the 10 overs he got to bowl he was most successful of all. As per yesterday, while late batsman should take more blame, but if you looka t early part of innings, you will find that GG was uncomfortable throughout the time he was on crease. While i have defended him for opening all this time, but it was required after he survived the initial scares to put his head down calmly and give VS some company, While he did not get out playing big one, but he did not make use of the understandign of pitch once he discoverd it was not as flat as the other.
Come Raina: Now what? Sir you can play either way as well. Saw Sehwag was tied, pitch was not the best friend, little bit patience would have done. This is where when SRT plays and identifies the pitches are different, he does what he feels like rather than what may have been his expectation or advice frm the DR.
Don't want to defend any player, but one can see how well ahead VS is as cmpared to others ven if he does not play vry attacking. But full marks to NZ for doign their HW.
Ind knew sooner or later this was coming.

for those who keep track of such matters: When was the last time India did well on a similar pitch in an ODI against a decent opponent ? This pitch is definitely a case of home advantage.. where the home team knew how to play and the visitors were clueless.

gouravk · « **Reply #65 on:** March 14, 2009, 04:51:01 PM »

what exactly do you mean by similar pitch ? you are not suggesting this pitch was like the ones in 2002 are you ?

justforkix · « **Reply #66 on:** March 15, 2009, 04:03:53 AM »

no, but unlike the other 4 pitches in this series, this pitch assisted seam movement and had bounce too, i.e., not a flat track.
