Unlucky VVS

VVS Laxman has indeed been one of the most unluckiest India batsman to have roamed the world. His talent wasn't recognised when he first came in, and when he was in form, he was not selected for World Cup 2003 squad. After that he had a lean period along with Ganguly and was kicked out, almost permanently for the ODI squad. Lat year when he was in terrific form in the Challenger Trophy, once again he wasn't selected for the ODI squad for the series against Pakistan against whom he has a great record. I would like to hear from all you posters out there about it, and wheather you agree with me or not.

That was a waste of a post you know. Seriously you need to focus on quality and quantity. That's what I learned form time and experience.

Well he must have been excellent batter with Ganguly and Dravid. Not been in good form lately. You must have seen in West Indies, he did not play that well. He couldn't do much except for 1 or 2 test matches in Windies. According to me give him change for couple of more matches, if he doesn't improve, then give him chance once in while. ODIs are really far for him, he got to straighten his test career first, and get his form going.

What are you on about, I was saying he ws a good player and then gave an example. What's your problem?

I never said he was the best ODI player. Plus he is anyday more experienced and anyday better than Yuvraj, Kaif, Raina, and Dhoni at the moment. The only thnig he needs to work on is consistensy, batting with the tail, and fielding. I hope you got your answer dhoniisbest.

Okay, that was pretty good form he had in the past. But just look at his form right now.

I was replying to a post which someone else said and what MaNi_PaKi just said was right. Ganguly was out of form and you said that he was still good. Laxman is anyday in better form than him, so why single him out. Is it because he is a South Indian.

Because they are the two cricketrs trown out of the Indian team, and all this while people have been comparing them. Even otherwise, South Indian players get worse remark than a player from Mumbai.

Every players has his own lean period.

I wasn't saying a joke. I was serious.

I don't care about that. I was serious that perople are bias towards North Indian player than South Indian players. Why do you think that Kerala players are rarely selected. Tinu Youhanan was first, now it's Sreesanth. It has been only over the last couple of years that more players have been coming from Southern India. Players from North India get more chances if they fail whereas South Indians get very few cahnces once they fail.

Tinu Yohannan, Balaji, Sridaran Sri Ram, Anil Kumble, Dravid, Murali Kartik all I thought from Southern States of India
