June 25, 2004



Open with Tendulkar and Ganguly in ODIs
Sriram Ranganathan says the order in which the Indian top order bats at is not perfect yet.



June 16, 2004



Harmison makes it big, with a little help
The England bowler has made a move from nowhere to second in the world rankings.



April 22, 2004



MacGill adds name to limited list
The Australian leg spinner joined a list of players declining to play sport for moral reasons.



April 21, 2004



Ridiculous to suspect Murali's action
Javagal Srinath calls for a bowling action committee, formed with bowlers from different countries, to look into faulty actions of bowlers.



April 20, 2004



In defence of Murali
Muthiah Muralitharan gets more turn because he releases the ball from the back of his hand. His bent elbow, says Swaminathan Natarajan, enables him to get additional spin.



April 18, 2004



My decision to quit was right
Javagal Srinath believes that the current Indian squad is the best team in the last three decades.



April 17, 2004



Shoaib was not committed to beating India
Ramiz Raja says this Indian team is special, because it looks to win Tests rather than merely achieve personal goals.



April 13, 2004



Pacemen will be in business in Pindi
The pitch for the third and final Test, says Ramiz Raja, will be good for batting after some initial help for the pace bowlers.
Fast bowlers need to work in tandem
Javagal Srinath says the injury problems of pacemen can be regulated with the introduction of a fast bowlers' rotation system.



April 12, 2004



Indian openers must see off the new ball
India must assess the prevailing conditions rather than carry the cross of the last match, says Harbhajan Singh.



April 11, 2004



Wanted: Young umpires
An ageing umpire may be more experienced, says Javagal Srinath, but senility does not help in giving right decisions.



April 10, 2004



Spare a thought for Akash Chopra
What does it do to a player when he reads in the newspapers that his skipper wants him out, says Faisal Shariff.



April 09, 2004



Pakistan benefited from Dravid's largesse
In Sehwag's success, there is a message for the rest of the Indian batsmen, says Rashid Latif.
Complacency undid India's good start
An overseas victory means so much to the players that they somehow get overwhelmed by the occasion, says J Srinath.



April 06, 2004



India should learn to keep the momentum going
Javagal Srinath says the batsmen should have defended a little more in the pre-lunch session to make Rahul Dravid's brave decision to bat first worthwhile.



April 05, 2004



Real contest expected in the 2nd Test
At the start of the series, everybody was talking about this being a battle between our bowling and India's batting. It has not worked out that way so far, thanks to the flat wickets that have been on offer.



April 03, 2004



Shoaib looks mentally tired
Virender Sehwag's triple century is surely going to motivate the rest of the Indian batsmen further, says Harbhajan Singh.
Kumble a master of his own art
The best part of Anil's cricket, says Javagal Srinath, is the way he conducts himself under challenging circumstances.



April 02, 2004



The series is far from over
After the heavy defeat at Multan, Pakistan have no option but to go for a green top in the second Test at Lahore.



April 01, 2004



Indian bowling was the surprise package
Multan's flat pitch could not have been the cause of Pakistan's defeat, says Ramiz Raja, because the less speedy Indians took 20 wickets on the same track.
The team's objective comes first
Sehwag's historic feat has made the Multan Test an even more memorable one, says J Srinath.
