Young and Vibrant !!


The new kids are on the block and they are eager to perform... yes i am talking about the young faces in the Indian cricket team. few years back we had a similar situation where few youngsters had made a diffrence like the yuvraj, kaif, shewag, Zaheer, Nehara, harbhajan... today they have become vetrans of the game though still young at age. Some have lasted and some have failed to sail the distance...

After 2004 pakistan tour india started to lose ODI's regularly there was huge cry to change the composition of the side but some how it went on till the much hyped ganguly controversy. After that there was a huge transition making way for pool of youngsters. The young faces who wanted to make a mark and eager to play for the nation got the chance and today we have many stars in making..

Raina, Dhoni, Venugopal, Pathan, Sreesanth, RP Singh, Munaf Patel, VRV Singh, Powar.. and few others are making big news in last five- six months and India has lost only 4 matches so far of the 19 played with this combination. So we have potential stars in making.. lets not hype/critisize these cricketers for whatever good or bad they do.. they should be given a fair oppurtunity to prove themselves...

I know at present the old Warrior Sachin is injured, Shewag & kaif are out of form, Sauvrav, Laxman, Kumble are out of team, Nehara, Balaji, Zaheer are having problem with fitness and form. Just imagine if those out of form guys can find form, injured guys become fit and perform, then Team India will be a force to reckon with youngsters and experienced players. Definitely a huge bonus for world cup 2007. Men in blue will reach new heights... Thanx to Young and Vibrant INDIA...

India have lost the ODI series in Westindies 4-1...the score line looks very bad. We had people talking all kinds of things. But I still belive this Indian team has something special in it. If u closely look at the series India lost 3 matches very closely like losing by 1 run.. windies won with just 1 ball to spare... and again lost by 19 runs.. it shows that it could have been 4-1 in India's favour. All they need is lettle bit of fine tuning. Way they came back in Antigua test after being outplayed for first 7 session of test match was really a heartning fact..allthough they could not push for a victory. I still think this YOUNG BRIGADE is special !!
