Ind/SA---what a mess...Indians cannot play on bouncy wickets, except, Tendulkar, Dravid and Laxman...

All that talk about coach and coaching is crap...he is not in the middle, the boys are....plain and simple

They have to salvage something, pride...whatever you want to call..what a dismall performance..

Get Agarkar out, he is a terrible bowler, time and again he has given runs at crucial times, screwed up at important moments, and is not cosistent, very expensive, batting is a liability..

Khan is a liability too, has lost all his potency and his focus, all that money money and lifestyle..same can be applied to Pathan..these kids see too much in less time (nothing bad if you perform cause then you deserve) and have no social or cultural framework to handle all this fame...and still be in the game focussed...athletes all around the world do it...they should be able to..

Of course, some screw up, but i bet those who do are already on the edge...

we are a nation of ONE BILLION people, can we not find ONE decent fast bowler, OK not find, DEVELOP one decent fast bowler. On the other hand Pakistan comes up with handful every year...

lets see what they do in the next game....actuall I dont care for any one-day games..untill the World Cup...I want to see Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman bat for a long time in the Test, and see Harbhajan, Munaf, Kumble to bowl and get some overseas Test victory (ies)

If these 5/6 players get in the game then we have some Test...on the other hand, i would love to see Kallis bat...he is amazing batsman...so contained, so campact and yet fluent...his drives are cool and pulls imperious...(should not say this...cause he is a run machine and would kill India's chances, if any)

Pollock is like a division A bowler now, i am not sure he can bowl long spells with the same accuracy as he used to some years back...Kemp is a good find..Gibbs is exciting if he gets going...de Villiers is steadybut in the Test macthes its Ntini, hes got fire, bowls amazing spells never gives up...and if he gets an early wicket he is a transformed bowler after that..under your skin, trying harder and harder, gettting smarter and smarter: a dangerous combination for a bowler...like Kumble, Warne...
