No brand has signed an Indian cricketer as its endorser since Gulf Oil signed Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni for its lubricant brand Gulf in September last
The experience these guys have ... you need them to transfer that experience to the new players and you need them around ... You can't just sideline them. We need to look at a process how best to phase them out as well as keeping the right balance; youth and experience in the side. It has to be a proces...
As this is the second offence within 12 months India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been suspended for the next Test match in line with the ICC Code of Conduct.
The India team has been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate during the third Test against Australia in Perth, Western Australia, and as this is the second offence within 12 months India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been suspended for the next Test match in line with the ICC Code of Conduct
The absence of Sachin Tendulkar, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh forced us to maintain a low profile
We have not adapted well to the conditions quickly enough. Winning in Adelaide is the only motivation we have now, the bowlers have shown they can take wickets, we need to put more runs on the board.
Sachin Tendulkar has been rested. Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been rested for the series. Yuvraj Singh was not considered for selection, as he has informed that he is not fully fit
Class is always there, they have the experience, it’s just in back-to-back series that we have failed
Certainly, this is one of the worst phases where we have not done consistently well
I need to blame myself because I am the leader of this side. Of course, I am the main culprit, so I blame myself
As of now, there's nothing I know officially
I have always been receiving several Bollywood offers. But frankly, I was never interested in any of them. Besides, I didn’t have the time or the inclination to act in a film. It was never on my radar
Something happened in the morning and it (the pitch) started to turn
I would like to say that we must have wickets spinning from day one as that has been our strength. We started the day with a safe approach and as we started getting couple of wickets, we went for the offensive. Eventually, the way the first session went, I am sure last four days must have been forgotten...
It is a much needed break. I have been playing continuous cricket for quite sometime now. More than the physical break, I am looking forward to the mental break before the Australia tour.
Frankly I really don't know what happened. It started to turn in the morning. Till yesterday everything was fine. It was among the flattest of wickets
The most important thing was to do well
Most of our dismissals came at the wrong time. Some kind of partnerships were going on and then we lost a wicket. The pressure was back on us, but it was a good game of cricket
It was a superb final day and again it was proved that it's not yours until it's in your kitty. We lost wickets at the wrong time
