prashanth	it has been a fentastic effert by indian team ( Posted: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 at 12:02 )


pran	I agree with Joshua, it is the bowlers who won the match. If sachin had failed in the two finals then we wld hv lost. For the last 2 yrs india is coming out with good fast bowlers. Even if ganguly n dravid had played india wld hv still won. It''s not that we fielded great. Bowlers hv won matches in the tests also.It was zaheer in england, sreesanth in SA. When ganguly was captain he encouraged fast bowlers a lot n hence so many hv come out others india produced only spinners. ( Posted: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 21:35 )


senthilkumar venkatramanan	another one guruchatra comes to an end. here sachin plays the role of lord krishna and defeat them. i wish you all the best for indian cricket team ( Posted: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 21:22 )


AMITH	Ricky Ponting is responsible for Australian defeat.He never tried to restrict his players for their misbehaviour inside and outside the field rather he tried to encourage them by saying its a part of agressive cricket or cricket tactics. Australian players were more intrested in showering words against the Indian players.I think they lost their concentration through this.They were over confident and never tried to measure the depth of young Indian team.They deserved this defeat.

Josh	We miss Gilly ( Posted: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 14:11 )


Joshua	MR.Vengsarkar, you didn''t play single ball to win this series.. The players have done this not the selectors or the BCCI politicians.. good luck India for the future. MR.Vengsarkar can''t say he is the one did this, but the team and the hard work.. Any one can say if Gangully, Dravid, Kaif played in this series what would be the result? I say still we would have won the match.. Because the bowlers done the trick for us.. Australia didn''t play good cticket as they use to play. We have played better cricket and we won the series.. BUT no one can say because of droping these legends we have won this series.. Good luck India ( Posted: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 13:49 )
go and look for last edition of cb series which india played. with ganguly and dravid india wouldnt have made to the finals. They were there when india played australia in india. resuly 5-1 in favour of aussies. stop ur crap mate. ( Posted by prasad on Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 16:28 ) Yes Joshua is right. We won Natwest and we won in england again. We have won in West Indies even without Sachin. we must not forget the past i am sure you people will forget this win in couple of months ( Posted by Ady on Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 19:06 ) Ganguly and Dravid were replaced by Uthappa and Rohit. I don''t think they had a big role in these wins. The replacements for Ganguly and Dravid did not win for India - the new set of bowlers who replaced Agarkar and Zahir Khan and someone else did the trick ( Posted by Observer on Thursday , March 06, 2008 at 05:44 ) Yes Joshua is right.

xyz	Superb,Great ( Posted: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 13:39 )


MHWARRIER	YES INCREDIBLE INDIA TAMED AUSTRALIA AND CREATED HISTORY. TILL A MONTH BACK IT WAS AUSTRALIA INCREDIBLE!HOW COME INDIA QUALIFIED THEMSELVES FOR THAT ''ADJECTIVE''.IS IT CHANGE IN LEADERSHIP? CHANGE IN SELECTION CRITERIA? CHANGE IN AGE OLD CONCEPTS? CHANGE IN CONFIDENCE LEVEL? STRONG SUPPORT AND HELP FROM TECHNICAL SUPPORT STAFF? A MENTALLY WEAK OPPONENT IN AUSTRALIA?BETTER OVERALL CAPTAINCY THAT ENABLED TO BEAT OPPONENT''S GAME STRATEGY IN EACH MATCH? NO CONTROVERSIES, LUCKILY AMONG TEAM MEMBERS? YES ALL THE ABOVE CONTRIBUTED. REST IS HISTORY. ( Posted: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 12:38 )
Dude...This is not the first time australia has lost in the tri series. England beat them last year, and 4 years back they did not even reach the final..So India has not done anything out of the blue. However, its the first time India has managed to win so great job done by dhoni and his team. But winning one tri series does not mean India has become world beaters. for that to happen they need to win consistently home and away in both tests and ODIs ( Posted by Rahul on Wednesday, March 05, 2008 at 14:18 ) Dude...This is not the first time australia has lost in the tri series.
