abysmal....

argh...!!!!... what a way to lose an odi after an emphatic win in the test series....

yesterday's game sure showed us what india lacked....in many fields... their performance was abysmal.(compared to their earlier performances)

the so called "youthful and young" team struggled to prevent england from being so mobile between the wickets... and what not..... like adding insult to injury.... three runouts...

god save india...!!!... they were ambling on the field... in between the wickets... atleast in the modern era of the game ...it is blasphemous...

earlier in the game... ian chappel was commenting on the england's skipper's dubious decision of sending in ian bell at 3rd......rather than kevin or freddy..

but bell lived to upto his captain's expectations and delivered well... though england wud have made 300+ if kevin or freddy was sent in ... (in case they played well)... it wud have hardly mattered.... because.. india really cracked under pressure...

so it was a game ... errr... a lesson for india.....


in my opinion...they also goofed it up... by sending the players in order after saurav was out... i wud have preferred the jubiliant karthik to be sent in ...first rather ...than any other...

poor chap was sent in when india needed so many runs on the board... still he did his part...

i wud love to see him promoted up the order for the rest of the odi's .... atleast....


Hope india comes up with a good performance in the coming odi's.....

come on india.!!!!!!!.. u are a better team...than this...

Chak de! india... Chak de!....
