Did playing the Test matches before the ODIs help ?

[MIG]

Last year in Pak , we played the ODIs, lost in them and then did not have the staying power in the test matches.

This time we played the ODIs second.

Do you think the result of the series would have been different if we had followed the format of last years series?

Did playing 5 day cricket give us more time to settle and adjust to conditions ?

[Noman]

Yes I think because when U play test cricket u have the time to practise in the middle like a pratice match and u can get the eye in. And u gain better fitnees by it.

I personaly thinks its help

playboy nude wud be better

[Schiller]

no you philistine, thats one of Picasso's nude

migsy, you should change your sig, i think eh?

[Schiller]

playboy nude is not art, on second thought depends on whom you have in mind 2

[MIG]

Oh, yeah - Why ??? Tumhara kiya bigara hai ?

[Schiller]

and migsy, keats was one of the greatest poets, perhaps better than shakespeare in a few ways, kuch seekh lain barrhapay main

[Schiller]

"Oh, yeah - Why ??? Tumhara kiya bigara hai ?"

I just thought that this was more appropriate pre-india ? or is it in general? if so, then stays the sig

Tum hogau buddhay !!

[Schiller]

[zushy_786]

Noooo...... MIG You've opened up a big can of worms !! I wouldn't ask about comma's escapades as he's been rejected too many times, its quite a feat but tragic nonetheless

[Schiller]

Acha ? Oi Commay, explain above ?

[zushy_786]

Yes please do explain , and what do you mean architecturally speaking ??

[Schiller]

Uhm right...I see now

I bet MIG is confused out of his mind, as to what the hell your'e talking about

[Schiller]

with no architectural rejection, i think its safe to say my resume is sound

[MIG]

ME confused ? / Never!

I can only assume that above refers to some lady ( I hope ) and poetry...

[Schiller]

"I bet MIG is confused out of his mind, as to what the hell your'e talking about"

2 2

i think mig has by now figured out, using decades of thinking at his disposal that it has to do with someone of the opposite gender

Of course, you are a lot braver for accomplishing so much in your life while being so young

[Schiller]

"I can only assume that above refers to some lady ( I hope ) and poetry..."

I told you zushy, hes not past the landmark figure of 111 for no reason 2

not poetry migsy and dont think i didnt catch 'i hope' in there 2

[Schiller]

"Of course, you are a lot braver for accomplishing so much in your life while being so young"

Ha..... Yes I was referring to a lady..... I never thought you were you know *ahem* contrary to what you thought of me.....

111 woa thats a world record....

That's too bad it had to end, but you never know someone better is out there for you....

[Schiller]

hey i didnt post at orkut X)

and i have edited it as well

[Schiller]

"Ha..... Yes I was referring to a lady..... I never thought you were you know *ahem* contrary to what you thought of me....."

hey i apologised and it was a second's thought not one that was cultivated and studied by the great Shawshank redemption 2

What the hell is orkut ? Some dubious language that MIG has invented ?

[Schiller]

its a 'community' kind of thing where you get invited by a member only, not to my liking

[Schiller]

As for the original q, mig its a little difficult to ascertain. Over a period of time, we might be able to judge the results perhaps.

[Schiller]

Its safer to suggest though that playind odis before the tests wouldnt have helped technique wise maybe but who knows what the effect of a win (assumption: 4-2) would have done

Thanks for the info regarding orkut - some vulgar name... I was only being cheeky regarding my comments earlier.. No offense taken, just was startled by it....
