Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

There is always way tooooooo much praising going on and on and on about Indian players, even if it is a single innings. Cricinfo is way too much Indianized. While browsing you would keep coming across ‘extraordinary’ quotes about Sachin, Sehwag, Laxman specially from Australian players. If you find an Indian interviwer interviewing an Australian, he would seem to try his best to persuade the Australian to say something amazing in praising Sachin or any Indian batsman. And that quote might become the highlight of his article.

I have seen Inzimam play a lot better innings than Laxman’s innings, and already tooo many articles written on Laxman, never would you find such articles about any special innings from a batsman or a special bowling performance (Mohammad Amir, Asif…etc) of another country. Search it to believe it.

There was an article by Akash chopra on reverse swing/ best pace attack…etc. and he had praised Agarkar,…etc. without mentioning Imran, Wasim and Waqar. There were harsh responses from the readers.

Yeah man its a totally biased site

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

I have seen plenty of praise for Wasim Asif and Amir Umar in recent times??

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

In the meanwhile cricinfo grows din chuni raat taraqi. LOL

Dude R.A.W ! More you visit a website more ‘hits’ you give them, stop it and may be just may be they’l see the day light! :cobra:

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

Lets see how many articles they write on Abdul Razzaq.

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

Go to Google news Pakistan now, you would find the following headings in sports sections:

Spot-fixing scandal and provisional suspensions

Cricket-Inspired Razzaq blasts Pakistan to unlikely victory

Now Select Google news India, guess which only heading would you find >>????

"Shamed Pakistan players remain suspended after ICC rejects appeals"

Also ICC rejects Butt, Aamer appeals, Hindustan Times

Also Spot-fixing scandal and provisional suspensions Daily Times

Almost 3 hours have passed since Pakistan won the match. But the news added 24 minutes ago:

Sehwag bats for UDRS

and the one added 48 minutes ago

*Proud to make it to Indian team before Saurashtra *

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

Can I suggest getting over you complexes...

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

What is wrong with that? Cricinfo is a commercial website and would want most hits, translating into revenues. Indians would be the most frequent visitors of the website and they need to keep the audience happy. Why would anyone not want to keep their customers coming back?

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that…

I am not agree.
They praise a lot of Pakistani players too. Just watch this wounder full article on Imran Khan by an Indian.

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

I think it is all commercialism. They r not there to serve for the cricket. Economy is the driving force. and pakistan is a small market

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

ICC AND CRICNFO are biased towards INDIA because of the MONEY...that's it.
If Pakistan would show the gumshin to have something like IPL and the political climate to ENSURE that such a competition survive and prosper, then CRICINO would like Pakistans boots as well.

So forget it.

Re: Is it just me, or anyone else has noted that...

i don't know if CrickInfo is biased towards India or biased against Pakistan or both. But I'll say this:

1) Pakistan has played a lot less cricket in the recent past few years than India
2) Inzy is gone; Sachin is still going strong - so why wouldn't you see more about a current great player?
3) Like it or not, apart from this marvelous show by Razzak, there simply haven't been positive things to report about Pakistan cricket - it has been a string of scadals

I mean, why do you expect equal positive news when there isn't equal positive news?
