Domestic Cricket

Topic started by P_R on Fri Dec 1 19:40:01 2006. [Full View]

The move from the zonal to the Plate-Elite format have generally made the matches more even contests than they used to be. It is no longer about long knocks on dead tracks to maximize the innings lead.

The last two years have been quite surprising. UP and Bengal, not very highly rated teams, made it to the finals last year. Railways defeated Punjab the year before. In the two finals in a row, in the preceding years Mumbai comprehensively defeated TN.

Last year TN was unlucky to have 3 of its matches drawn due to rain. They suffered losses against Maharashtra and Mumbai. But they drew with Delhi and managed to defeat Bengal (who actually went on to become finalists !).

This year TN started by drawing with (but conceding 1st innlead lead to) Delhi. Badrinath (who made a century there) has been appointed captain ahead of biggies in the team. The second match against Andhra is on its way in Chepauk with another knock from Badrinath. TN still misses Balaji and is trying out new 'keepers in place of Dinesh Kaarthik.

Let's dicuss the Ranji results and TN's chances in this thread.

though system is a bit unfair, i think real talent cant be suppressed for long...........sachin tendulkar from Mumbai shines all through whereas kambli from the same powerful mumbai lobby couldnt pluck a grass.......

Sachin is an extreme talent maddy. And he speaks and prioitises hindi. Avar hindi pesalainaalum yaarum thaduthiukka mudiyaadhu adhu vera vishayam.
What about lesser talent? Praveens and munafs getting multiple chances over sreesanth?
Anyway, with dhoni it is not a language based ideology - more of his friends get more chances. He'll ditch them when they get extremely bad like jogi but they get maximum chances over ojhas and sreesanths and badris - rudderless pratap singhs and durbhajans get that extra opportunity.
If dinesh karthik is captain, then a vijay might get this advantage over pujara.that is very human. But if that happens, then it is okay considering hindiwallahs have enjoyed that advantage for several years now.
(Sachin had his agakar and kambli so it is not like others were saints and dhoni is a sinner. But dhoniyum sinnerngaradhu varalaatril padikka vendi irukku:-)

which choice u wud give for sachin and sourav who also have backed darba to a large extent?

Sachin or sourav never had this koodai vechurukkuvanga type excuse for durby. They had their favourites whom they backed a little more than others but a defence like "avan nallA podadha nall thavirthu meedhi ball paartha nallave potttan" is a dhoni special

i dont find anything incredibly funny in this statement.....with that statement and a TOI "thundu" bit of info, u r trying to make a case that Dhoni is a liar, business minded, protecting friends, protecting indhi speaking paapulation, bad captain etc etc......innum edhir paakkuren....

btw, thats why i told, since Dineshan, tamilan*4, has led TN to victory in ranji traapi match, he shuld ideally replace Dhoni for indian cap.....Srikanth, being a tamil selector, must facilitate this move
