Dravid laxman ganguly and sachins team bring up the bottom in IPL.Dont u think this is proof they are too old?

Question

Kumble has been a total failure too! the old war horses should give up trying for aplace in ODIs and Twenty-20.

Answer 1

LAXMAN hes a really good cricketer!

He can hit the ball a long way he is in form now.

Deccan chargers are at the bottom because of unluck.

eg. DC vs KKR crumbling pitch

DC 214 vs RR 217

Answer 2

They are Icons and Captains that mean more than play. Their experience counts. They have local support too.

Answer 3

lol. Well only those players are old, but not every body on their teams are old. Kumble is not fit for 20...20 i agree.

Answer 4

They are not very good T20 captains for sure.  And they are close to their sell-by date. Unfortunately I do not think Icons can be traded.

Perhaps they may still be fit for Test Cricket. ???

Answer 5

Tendulkar hasn't played a single game yet, Kolkata have underperformed as a team and Laxman has done reasonably well with the bat.

If anythign I would say it reflects poorly on Laxman and Ganguly's captainship.

I'm sure there are far more compelling and VALID reasons why any of those players shouldn't play in ODIs or T20s

Answer 6

not at all.....................

what in the world are u talkin about..................

sachin has not even played in the tournament at all...........

he should not be blamed...........

and also ,,,,the tournament is not over.....

anything can happen..............

Sachin is still young......

who says he is old........

he is still young,,,,,,,

Answer 7

hey...sachin is still a young man at his play and he cant be blamed for the MUI's bottom rank coz he didn't play even a single match.Laxman doesn't have an experience as a captain even then he has been scoring good to display a modest total on the scoreboard. Even dravid is playing as a captain and LIKE a captain. He cannot handle such a team which is suitable for a test match rather than  T20. Ganguly is old he can play no more in the international cricket.

Answer 8

*Mumbai Indians - In my opinion one of the best teams in IPL.

*Bangalore Royal Challengers - Dravid is back in form.He played well in last two matches.

*Kolkata Knight Riders - Gangyly hasn't done a great job.But still not that d**n bad.

*Deccan Chargers - Laxman has batted well.Only his captaincy hasn't been good.

They haven't played poorly.

Ricky Ponting scored just 39 runs in his 4 matches.

So is he also an old guy now?

And Hayden is elder to Sachin,Gasnguly,Dravid but he did so well in IPL.

38 year old Shane Warne is doing a great job for IPL.

Age doesn't matter.

Answer 9

No. It just means their style of play is not suited to hit and giggle cricket.

Answer 10

XCUSEME,laxman sacrifised his place for His team.(in the name of injury)

Answer 11

I  agree with Montitude.

Answer 12

They are captains and not the whole team. Cricket is a team sport and every person has to count. There are many who believe that Australia is so good, inspite of Ponting, and not because of him. So it does not make sense to single out oneplayer for a team's performance.

Answer 13

NO, their teams's position doesnt prove anything like this. Has this been the case how come Shane Warne's team is on top on table??? He is also 38 (older than these four). Its not their age, may be their are not able to leave their classic batting style and adopt the new things prorperly. And Sachin hasnt played a single match in IPL till date (probably, he hasnt played a 20-20 match yet) how can be judge his performance???

Otherwise there are few yougters and well known faces also who have not been at their best in IPL so far.

But Yes, Kumble has been a big failure so far. Disappointing. I believe he doesnt belong to this type of cricket at all.
