Default disagree

i dont agree with the "bulbul" theory. Surely he had a great influence to the next generation but I dont think any of our batsmen got that "glancing to the third man area" from him.

Also disagree with the view of going for the shots. Yes it is true that a good batsman will always try to play in the front foot but he has to be equal good at the back foot. Legendary batsman Sunil Gavasker always says that, the late u play the ball the better u have control over it. So i think BD batsmen try to follow that theory more often than they shud.

I think the MAIN problem of our batsmen is their frame of their mind and lack of self belief. Like Dav Whatmore said, its all in your head. Our BD batsmen just have to use it - that's all
