IPL is glamour, not cricket - good entertainment nevertheless
by Moral Brigade on May 12, 2009 09:30 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Come on you people who judge players on their IPL performance and shout about Hayden,Raina,Yusuf Pathan etc. and bash Sachin - please educate yourself about cricket.
Cricket is not the IPL matches where you swing or miss,where undressed women dance to please the crowd,where actresses come to 'cheer' their teams with plastic smiles,where mediocre players like Dhoni,Raina etc. hit fifties/hundreds and give an illusion that they can do the same in tests/ODIs.Players like Raina,Yusuf Pathan are not able to get a place in the ODI team let alone in Tests. This IPL is a timepass and treat it like one,DO NOT judge a player's calibre based on IPL you fools.

IPL is good entertainment nevertheless.

Suresh Raina will definitely play well in ODI too, if he is given a chance.

Raina is defntly a good quality player...Sachin sucks big time when it comes to match winning performances...u need to play match winning knocks not just add 50s and 100s for the record books....
