World Cup 2003 (Updated): (Cricket, of course!)

Arjun

Yeah, I feel bad about the Pakis being out too. Don`t deserve to be out and they are certainly a better team than half the ones who are in the super six.

Even the weather gods are angry with us. Lets think about the next step. How can we rebuild our cricket team? First- the ``khakis`` should lay off! Get rid of the ``heroes`` and ``primadonnas``, including the management and ``trainers`` and look hard for the real gems in the population of 140 million. I am sure we can find raw talent with hunger to play and win.
Finally get rid of the khakis and the lotas and install a government everybody can be proud of

re: #102

...madani uncle, i am not married so i cannot identify with your problems with your wife and punk doctor...i also don`t have IT carrior...

..as for bowling balls at people`s heads, i don`t agree with it either...but you should tell that to wasim raja who was encouraging it...

...beeeeeehave...

I am just tired of stupid comments.
#91 Mr, Shrdar: I am in exremely good health and 55 years, 610 mm long and 188 british pound, lean and still strong muscules and take care of my figure eating good foods and importantly eating LESS food even though i can eat all food in our hotel by my will made up of steel. Recently i was depressed due my abuse of me by my wife( i do not like her, she is repulsive abusive woman digging her grave by overeating,and tongue is poisonous, is fat.. I do not like speaking bad) and ungrateful Children who feel I am born to serve them.
So my dear manager friend suggested going to doctor. I do not believe in doctors and do not take drugs or even your india chhap medicines. I believe if you eat less exercise keep away from bad people ( mullahs and seculars) medicines are not required if you have not abused your body. I went and he took blood pressure and hart. I asked him how are things that young punk doctor told me young people will feel ashamed about their bodies compred to me. Blood and Eurine pure no fat or sugar or protein ok. He said he has not seen such pure blood. So my brain not affected by drugs. Otherthing I always drink bottled water ( thank to our great Hotel**** ok), I think water is very bad (contaminated- sewer mixed as old pipe lines and Dabheji Pumping plants pump stops regularly.) So thanks computer expert mr. Sridharji. Thanks

#94 John Galt: I hate you punk hindu child with english name. I sell medicine as part time business partner with manager in Interior Sindh. I am amature professional doctor myself. For normal conditions i give medicines to people saves money no subscription and cheap imported drugs. ( normally 50% of regular locally produced). So not on drugs. I have not taken medicines in last 45 years.I do not believe in medicines.I wish you wisdom and good luck and good wife and hope you start writing respectfully of elders with knowledge and experience.

#90 Mr. Rama Saxanaji: You marthi RSS brahmins are not liked by me. I do not like hitting any bodies head with ball as hurting tool. I am not in politics of Hindu and Muslims etc. I do not care recently i have gone beyond hindu and muslim, neither i am fake communal seculars residing all over. I am religious and letb hindu be religious , I can deal with him but not fake seculars who are sprouting like weed. I will be sad even if tendurar is hurt by any muslim baller even though it will be very good for pakisrtan team. I like gentlemans game. I always feel we people are junglis and british mybap sarkar left early before we learnt to play cricket with gentleman spirit . Still I wish you good success in your IT carrior. I wish you good luck in life, no malice or ill wish just good wish.Let me be good, it fears me i may be dead in next 20 yers and then my wife and children will understand how i died every day over years. When I travelled some times in stupid hot humid busses i literally die little every day. I hope your wife is good . Some times i wonder are we all respondents tired of our wifes( Or husbands), I feel lots of frustration of writers, all washouts, i do not think Musharaff or Atal can understand anguish of average people. Some times we little people talk too much about out world and our helplessness. Its hard life so much to endure , if i had choice not statred this journey. I had many desires about so many things but now i will satisfy my desires in my mind whatever unsatisfied. I wanted to go to USA and my children marry white good kind women and little white- milk white grandchildren. Now worried they can get married to to dark indian Mohajirs.I think frustration give spiritual distillation and writing like addiction to response to stupid reactions, stupid action, stupid reaction deshi law of newton.

#95 Tunkens... you are right. Both playesr are wrong. Hurting is not right. Also boasting is not liked by allah and he punishes who bost. Pindi express got lesson for talking too much and good whipping. He made big noise and with furry but little indians stood calmly and whipped express and Toofan passed with out damage. Speed is not everything, just like computer is fast but not subtle. P. Express shut up reduce speed and have little quality. I think P.Express got lesson from little master.

#97 Farook Abdulla..... I agree religion was not part of play neither ahhah or ishvar- hindu gods name were fighting. This little punk said not me. Army can be blamed for 85% of things but this was not General Sahibs fault the team lost. Let army be professional. I have noted little brat punks critic fauj all time. Many punks if sent to Kakul for military traing they will come out better as men. But everybody wants to state is problem. I am tired of all responants stupididty and not caring for others. My health just fine like 20 yras youth needs no drugs.They are bad drugs. All Lafangebaz respondents as they are fools. so logical response of brahmin control cricket , I think they agree with me.

Do you even know how many Pakistani cricketers have contacted Adnan Sami lately?

re: semi #98

..why can`t we have akram?...he and tendulkar get along very well...all the young indian bowlers treat him like god, and he gives them invaluable advice...sounds perfect to me...:)...

All this talk of exchanging players reminds me of a cartoon in an Indian magazine in early eighties when Pakistani batsmen would never get LBWs when playing in Pakistan.
Imran to Gavaskar - If you give us Kapil Dev, we can beat the whole world.
Gavaskar to Imran - If you give us two Pakistani umpires, we can beat the whole world.

...john, veeresh et al...NO, you cannot have akram...you CAN , however, have afridi, inzi and shoaib...for free...absolutely no charge...nada...:)

Embroiling religion with sports is a bit under the belt thing (#89), as for the performance of Pakistani team, this is what you can get when a General is at the helm, Pakistani team is only a microcosm of Pakistan. Have you seen anywhere else in the world a serving army General managing a sports body. The team, very much like Pakistan, lacks discipline, commitment and self belief. This khaki management is doing the team and cricket more harm than any good. But believe me or not, the General would not accept the responsibiltiy of world cup fiasco, small wonder, no General has ever in the history of this country.

March 1, 2003 might have been hogged by India and Pakistan but IMHO the true heroes of the day were Kenya. A non test playing nation having wins against 3 test playing nations (considering the forfiet by NZ as a win by Kenya) in one tournament and the World Cup at that and then qualifying for the next stage is surely something they can be rather proud of. And what is more intreseting about the Kenyan team is that it is the only African team with a true African character, i.e. no white player and still making a remarkably good progress. They have already beaten SA, West Indies, and India in previous tournaments. Cheers to them.

Defeat has affected your mind. Don`t forget to take your medicines.

#89 ahmedmadani: ``Hitting by Zahir Khan in head of our wicket kipper was very bad on moral of team, showed hindu team can do anything.``

Aamir Sohail saying that Pakistani bowlers should be aiming to injure Sachin Tendulkar to stop him from playing was very moral (believe me he said it with a very straight face and there was no hint of sarcasm on his face). Taufeeq Umar abusing Sachin on his way back was very moral. Taufeeq Umar also abusing Zaheer on his follow through was very moral (another matter that he got out the same over to the same bowler, reminds one of Aamir Sohail again in a previous game in a previous world cup). Saeed Anwar playing out his innings and not coming on the field after that was a true sportsman`s behaviour (not for first time, in fact suprised he didnt call for a runner). Bowlers not bowling and throwing balls and claiming birth defects and getting away with claims of being the fastest and the greatest is very moral. One can go on and on but guess they teach different moralities in the land of the pure.

p.s. how many brahmins have u met in real life???

{Hitting by Zahir Khan in head of our wicket kipper was very bad on moral of team, showed hindu team can do anything}


...hahahah...zaheer that silly hindu hurling bouncers...and mohammad kaif that other silly hindu smacking the ball around with tendulkar... :)

Looks like you are taking drugs. Get off it and read your post again. You will realise you have been talking non-sense.

``Tandolkar was really good. I had only heard about him earlier. He definitely has it whatever it is.``
It is called talent and it almost always wins against any kind of intimidation or coercion.
