dont consider records
by chandrashekhar byadgi on Nov 29, 2006 03:44 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

u should consider Mr dependable rahul dravid also while discussing,one of the best batsman in the world. otherwise i think this discussion will be incomplete. look at his consistancy and number of runs he scored in test as well as one day cricket i am sure he will defend this discussion .

Mr.norman....
why ur so disappointed with a person (Sachin) who knows cricket more than anybody, ur not in figure, he is a true sportsman... did u even see him misbavaing with any other player on the field... he was the only person to introduce attacking cricket in indian crickte and what i meant to say is .. he was best... but everybody face highs and low.. u cant just compare a performing and a nonperforming player.. lara has disappointed his country men than did by Sachin... he was out of form for long .. has he been a player in country like india.. he would have even dropped.. such a case hasnt come yet fro Sachin.. u just compare.. who has scored more in last 10 matches.. i dont think any body has scored more than sachin.. that means he is still in form and han it is true that he fails many a times.. but u Mr. Norman also cant do your gal at the age of 35 at the same strength u would do at the age of 25 ... understood.. try to learn some desciplines from sachin.. it will be usefull in yopur career too.. same thing applies,.,,
dumbo

bye

well said dear mr/miss ha nha..
as expected.. indian fans will do anything to defend themselves..well..i always thought indians n aussie fans were the most knowledgeable n intellectual fans of cricket... aussies definitely are..but sorry to say u ppl arent..honestly..u dont care bout ur country..do u??..u were saying that i consider the last 10 matches..and not the overall record..u know wats steve waughs average is..34 in odi n around 45 in tests..carl hooper averages even lesser..in both forms of game..but u ask any damn former player..wud they pick these players in their 11..??? n they will tell u that these two r the most reliable players around..n its a fact..dude..consistency is more important than class..wats the use of having the best straight drive in the world..wen u get get out sooooooooo cheaply in pressure situation..playing for the country is a big big honour..u gotta respect ur inclusion..sachin never does that...gavaskar too falls in that category.. man of big big records but fails to win matches..i dont hav any personal grudges on them but i feel players like rahul dravid,kapil dev hav not got their due credit bcoz of these two (so called) giants ..

mr/miss ha nha
agreed he exhibits perfect behaviour on the field..but does that make him perfect batsman..? u know there was someone called mark waugh..perhaps one of the most elegant and gentleman sportsman from aus..u know wat they did wen he didnt perform?? mr..miss..watevr..ha?? dude..country shud be given priority..u indians just dont put country ahead of individuals..thats why u remain losers..n u will continue if u dont drop out-of-form batsmen n take in new ,talented,fresh players..atleast give them a chance ....as u said ..i wont hav the same strength to do my gal wen im 35..well even if i dont hav the same strength i wont lose her.. but if someone doesnt perform bcoz of his age.. the team..n country loses..so if u indians think that losing is not a big deal then continue with ur bogus philosophy n get disappointed wen ur team loses..look at aussies..the most succeeful captain steve waugh was dropped n he had to resign bcoz he didnt perform..n aussies really improved from where they left under pontings guidance..n today they r no 1..wats the use of ur sachin being polite n all wen he doesnt perform..u shud think before u say somthing bcoz ..not evryone is dumb as u ..haha
