Someone like Sreevats Goswami...I hope, he is still there in the team. The youngsters need to play freely without feeling burdened by all the Test experiences, legacy and senior players hovering around.

why is dravid's presence affecting his chances ? cant he play in place of the utterly useless uthappa ? or the double duck ryder ? or the scared kevin pietersen ? or the mysterious bishnoi ?

bishnoi is mysterious no doubt!
but uthappa was your favorite, I remember.
no..dravid is not such a problem....actually with such senior, unwieldy guys around, younger guys may get bogged down.................the same is true with Ganguly/SRT also.

I remember, when I started playing for the Punjab Univ for the first time...in the practice matches.......some seniors, with their constant guidance, almost stiffled my natural game. I had to use cotton plugs once in a while.

i know i liked uthappa. i think mumbai indians paying him so much last year was the worst thing to happen to him. the money and fame went completely to his head.

Right now as an opposing captain I would be afraid of Dravid coming in at 5.  He has the game to accelerate and slog a team out of a rut.  He since 2003 has turned himself into an unbelievable finisher in the shorter version.  And with the form he is in right now it is a shame BRC will lose him after 6 or 7 games and they will have no chance if RD and KP are gone.

that may turn out to be a blessing in disguise........that is,RD's leaving after 6 or 7 games...............he will be blessed with a child and BRC will be blessed, that they can try some younger talent.

yup. lets see

ganguly 1 run off 12 balls so far. strike rate? Calculator hi toot gaya.
Dravid ... has the orange cap at a strike rate of one hundred and Effing forty four!

Blwe you have inspired me today. Since you have shown yourself to be shameless troll (shameless because you keep making such statements despite Dravid showing you aate daal ka bhav),  Just for you .... from today on I will be posting multiple threads with the ganguly comparison. If they get merged .... consider it war.  The gangulians can thank you for in their face threads that will be forthcoming.

Kban, remember. I did not start this one!

This is how the match report started in Deccan Chronicle the parent company and  one of many businesses owned by the owners of the Deccan Chargers

Ravi Teja ran 15 yards, flung himself to his left and was airborne for a split second before plucking the ball out of thin air, leaving Robin Uthappa astounded. That one moment summed this match up entirely.
