http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Farokh-Maneksha-Engineer-c56812 slams Team India for their series whitewash – Cricket News Update
Farokh Engineer, the former Indian wicketkeeper batsman, has lashed out on Team India for their poor and pathetic performances that have cost them a 0-4 whitewash in the recently-concluded 4-match npower Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013. He has asked the players
to bow their heads with shame and mourn over their defeats, especially in the last match that, he claims, was played on the wicket which resembled those of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750.
Engineer argues that the Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led team have brought great disrepute and humiliation to the Indian nation which worship cricket as religion. He tells that the Indians have been outplayed and swayed badly in each of the three departments i.e.
batting, bowling and fielding.
It is the not merely the series defeat India laments on, they have also lost the No. 1 place in International rankings of Test cricket.
Team England, under the leadership of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/AJ-Strauss-c964, have confidently and convincingly won all four games of the series with huge margins. They accomplished the 4-0 victory by beating the tourists by an innings and 8 runs last night at The Oval.
The Indians, who were trying to justify their back to back failures with the seam and swing conditions of the English wickets, have turned to be answerless after losing the final match on the pitch which is nearly like those of their home grounds.
Talking to the media today, he said, “This was like an Indian wicket to bat on. Some of them just didn't put up a fight. We are a proud nation. I was confident that we would save the game.”
He further told, “From where did all these injuries come from? I have played with broken fingers. Surely, you could have stayed on and played the one-day series.”
Commenting on http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Chinnadupargea-Sachin-c50607 would have probably
been given not out... who knows.”
Engineer played 46 Tests and 5 ODIs for Team India during his International career that ranges from 1961 to 1975.
