Apply food stamp I wanted to research this subject and write a paper. Your post what a thousand words would not. Nice job. ( Posted: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 at 09:08 )       
balu sanjay jha si simply a mad fellow just trying to gain spotlight by expressing some insane facts.in ndtv also on the part of ipl debate .he spoke without common sense saying that in t20 batsman is going to slog in the lats four overs.first he should understand the game ( Posted: Tuesday , July 08, 2008 at 12:03 )       
Satyajit I think Jha can rename his piece as "Bakwaas" from "Jakaas". That would be the apt name considering the fact that he beats around the bush more and also speculates unnecessarily. What proof does he have that the league match was fixed? If he had listened to the expert opinion of Marvan Atapattu before that match (it happened after Ind-Pak match) he said Lanka should rest Vaas(not fully fit), Muruli and Mendis (the unknown factor). While not playing Muruli wasn''t justified and he was actually played, the other two were not played and it paid off brilliantly. I have seen Mendis bowl only four overs in an IPL match and was wary about him and the Indian team without the seniors fell flat. Akram agreed after the final match that Lankan strategy had worked brilliantly. I don''t see why Pak team should feel deprieved. They knew the rules of the tourney well in advance, so if they are such a good team why did they lose in first match? (Was that also match fixing as per Jh?)They are a very inconsistent team and that''s why they didn''t reach final deservingly. ( Posted: Monday , July 07, 2008 at 20:17 )       
Saroj Mr. Jha haven''t had a chance to write his blog again after July 4th, I wonder if he''s tired supporting India during the Asia Cup final. Wake up and write something. We like to know how you feel now. ( Posted: Monday , July 07, 2008 at 13:52 )       
murli gopal Mr. Jha,

Guess Mahela had the last laugh! Despite all the great heroics of our batsmen,we have not been able to live down the sobriquet of chokers!And as expected none of you journos could spot the joker in the pack ''MENDIS''. ( Posted: Monday , July 07, 2008 at 13:17 )       
Shafiq The good thing about article is to try to diffuse the fumes of last article, and bringing INDIA-PAKISTAN people together (treating them one--- Thanks jha). The bad thing, well, to over estimate INDIA---and lame excuses to justify SRI LANKA''s startegy.....We all know SRI LANKA''s over all record against pakistan, even in darkest times of pakistan cricket-----------And what about the final''s results----- Where did India''s outstanding cicket stood against MENDIS (who didn''t play the league match against INDIA)--- I clearly feel pakistan were robbed of the cup by Sri lanka unethically.
HYPED INDIA''s super 4 performance in ASIA cup

conceded 284 against bangladesh
conceded 309 against pakistan, loosing by 8 wickets and 28 balls remaining
Getting out on 173 and loosing by 100 Runs in finals agaisnt SRI lanka

Compare it with Pakistan especially there performance in last 2 matches---- it is clear who was cheated...

Anyways thanks everyone supporting pakistan organizing the event, we wish to see champions trophy here in september---i will get watching it in stands of lahore & rawalpindi---rather winning it in some other country. ( Posted: Monday , July 07, 2008 at 11:04 )       
Dhammika-sri lanka jah missed the trick again. Grow up man. Yesterday india lost big. any way you are good at rubish ( Euro,teniss,42 inch TV ) .keep going. u give great fun on papper. ( Posted: Monday , July 07, 2008 at 10:32 )       
Abigail Foot in mouth Mr Jha ! Le blues lost pathetically in the final, I wonder what consistency you are talking about . Anyhoo.. i personally skipped this lackluster tourney ..
Anyways as for the conspiracy theory .. you are right i suspected it too.. may be a ''word'' from a Ex Captain of SL may be, i guess.. Because everybody know how desperate SriLankan Board is for Money and are at the mercy of BCCI for help , so obiously .. i think they did a favour .. Too bad the Indians couldn''t win the final. But that wouldnt matter.. what matters is the ad money and BCCI is successful once again... Hail BCCI ( Posted: Sunday , July 06, 2008 at 23:35 )
