Ok, they fail some-times but they are still the most reliable.<br /><br />If not for Punter and Hussey, we would have better chance to draw the 1st test if not win it and yet according to this blog, they must be dropped. <br /><br />And whatay logic about "team not making space for people to score centuries for themselves"? Is a century EVER for only oneself? Is it not added to the team score?? Please explain me how is it wrong for your middle order(for that matter any batsman) to score centuries.<br /><br />I am not really a punter fan but the fact is he is still better than anybody in the aus team and still wins them matches. Whatever you have to say about our bowling attack, it is an international bowling attack and not from a minnow team and he deserves every bit of respect for the way he has played this series.Viveknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686425684324303857.post-26537114404021670682012-01-04T14:30:08.465-06:002012-01-04T14:30:08.465-06:00My thinking with Kohli is that his confidence is d...My thinking with Kohli is that his confidence is dented. He started very well in Sydney and seemed to be hitting his stride. To, not having a century or a big 50 after so many innings is a sign that he's not ready. He'll not find "it" in Australia. Maybe like Gambhir he needs to find form in India and then try to take it overseas.<br /><br />I'm not as confident about Punter. He plays in a team that doesn't make space for people to score centuries for themselves. So unless the top order keeps failing, Punter will have limited opportunities to play the way he did yesterday.Vidooshakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03194362115018768416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686425684324303857.post-46521025331435375072012-01-04T11:56:16.562-06:002012-01-04T11:56:16.562-06:00Vidoo, Do you remember how Ganguly (before his Tes...Vidoo, Do you remember how Ganguly (before his Test debut) Sanath, VVS, Sachin himself were in their initial days....<br /><br />Kohli needs to be persisted...<br /><br />Frankly, I have had enough of SRT, RD and VVS. Can't wait for a new look India side. <br /><br />One thing's for sure, we don't have to worry about succession planning or managing retirements...with a 0-5 record in away tests, even if we replace the entire team.... there is a silver lining after all :-)Golandaazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593900110552569215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686425684324303857.post-32652303855717671462012-01-04T11:17:15.648-06:002012-01-04T11:17:15.648-06:00Vidoo,

He'll get better, more patience is needed; not a chopping mentality.<br /><br />The fault is obviously with our batting failure in the first innings.<br /><br />On Punter: I think we are on the verge of seeing a renaissance from him a.la Tendulkar. He doesn't have the pressure of captaincy, which makes him gets his game right. My wild guesses: he'll retire after Ashes 2013. and I think Aussies will win the Ashes in England next summer.elegantstrokehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03516602011273896993noreply@blogger.com
