will kerala ever succeed in cricket?

It's my state.Kerala never dominated in Indian cricket.\nNow a days some hopes are there.\nTinu yohannan bowled well.But he is nowhere in Indian team.\nShree is in the team.Sometimes he is reported as injured.\n\nthe reason is,We have no fore fathers like others have.Nobody served in cricket in commanding position from Kerala.\nBut we have skills to compete other states.

Irfan has NEVER won a test match for India. His inclusion or exclusion makes no difference to India's future. \n\nThe only advantage we have when Irfan plays is that he gets thrashed so much, the ball gets old fast, and then the real match winner Kumble can start bowling much sooner.

100 WICKETS IN 1 OR 2 YEARS..?\nIMPOSSIBLE...FOR KUMBLE...!\n\nHE WILL END-UP WITH 550 WICKETS.

Yes it will.\n\nBut need to do more for win by INDIA.\n\nWhat?\n\n\nRESPONSIBILITY HAS TO GO ALONG WITH ACCOUTABILITY.\n\nHOW?\n\nDRAVID be removed from CAPTAINCY and ODI-Why?\n\nThe worst captain- \ncould not control SA from 6 wicket down for 76; finally SA made 275. \nAny 18yrs child can do better job.\n\nHe made 63 in 103 balls and it is equvalent of 184 in 50 overs. This means he played for his retaintion in the team but not for win of INDIA. \nHE SCORED +50 for 63 but SCORED (NEGETIVE) -100 for playing TEST Match in ODI. \n\nThe net score of dravid is (negative)-50. This means he can play TEST but he shall be removed from ODI side of INDIA.\n\nShri DHONI be made CAPTAIN- Why?\n\n\nHe scored 55 in 48 balls, this is equivalent to 344 runs in 50 overs. Therefore he played for win of INDIA. HE GOT 50 FOR SCORING 55, and 100 FOR PLAYING FOR WIN OF INDIA and not mere for his retaintion in the team.\n\nTHEREFORE DHONI WITH 150 MARKS OUT OF 100 WILL THE CAPTAIN IN THE NEXT ODI\n\nShri DRAVID WITH (-)50 SCORE SHALL BE DROPPED FROM ODI AND RESERVED FOR TEST ONLY.\n\n\nThis is one example.\n\nWhat others?\n\npay proportion to performance\n\nif team win alright, if not remove 2 bat'mn, 2 blrs, 1 all rounder, keeper (if did badly).\n\nif could not win series;\nremove captain, coach, selectors, BCCI, \nMake a fresh selection of the team.\n\nIT WILL CERTAINLY WORK.

The problem lies with BCCI and its selection committee. Wrong selection of players and inability to develop players for fast, bouncy foreign pitches. Poor performance of Dravid as a captain.

I dont think so. India is a far far better team to WI. I think Lara, Chanderpaul are the only quality International players there.

as of now it may seem that its going great, but with the lack of senior players n expertise, they r not gonna get too far... young talent is a must but the real test will be when they play outside the subcontinent n on some real bouncy tracks... the management shud realise the urgency of experienced players in the team... else in the long run, its not gonna get far..

yes. they can win the panchayat elections in a better manner compared to assembly elections. b4 that they should execute most of their promises. they have already started with that process. so they will win.

I disagree. Friend, cricket is a funny game. Miracles do happen. :) Yes, Pakistan are the favourites. Deficiency of fast bowlers will hurt India. But then again, you never know with cricket.

i guess it should be Rahul Dravid, who motivates the team and at the same time scores well setting an example for his teammates, he has the best captaincy record (more than 65%). So he takes the prize!

not captaincy atleast they have to let him to play as a member. we need desperately experiance in the alien conditions like WI,ENG,AUS,SA,NZ.....\nindian team is looking very patchy because no one is there with real good experiance except DRAVID,KUBLE and LAXMAN..... \nWHY dont we give chance to GANGULY,AGARKAR(who is the only bowler to impress in onedayers against WI because of experiance) \n\nDAMN BULLSHIT PLANNING BY CHAPPEL AND BLOODY SHORT GUY KIRAN MORE AND OTHER GREAT PEOPLE WHO NEVER KNOW HOW TO CATCH A BALL IN BCCI \nSHOULD TAKE IT SERIOUSLY AND THINK BOUT IT AND DO SOME THING QUICKLY SO THAT WE CAN BE GOOD TEAM IN WI IN 2007 . \n\nmind that we lost to no 9 team in world and if it is the case with AUS,SA,ENG,NZ  AND OTHER THEN WHAT IS OUR PLAN????????? IN THE SAME PLASES WE ARE GOING TO PLAY IN 2007 ......

I HOPE S.A.WILL ACHIEVE THAT.\nAUSSIES MAY BE THE RUNNERS-UP.\n{THIS ANSWER IS NOT INSPIRED FROM THE WORLD RECORD WIN.}

yes,he should because when he was captain he plays good cricket even now also.ups and downs always come in the way of good cricketer.when sunil gavaskar was not in form but he has done a good captainship.so he should play as a captian.i admire him.

I watched San Fran beat NJ in the 04 title game, and i think theyre as good or better than Kenya.  After all, Kenya only plays ODIs, they arent good enough to play test matches.  Also, most of the San Fran players had experience at a national level.

IF INDIA CAN MANAGE A DRAWN TEST SERIES AND CLOSE FOUGHT DEFEAT WOULD BE RATED AS SUCCESS.\n\nBUT..\n\nINDIA WOULD LOOSE...THE TOUR.
