hey 243 runs on that track was good total.any other bowling line up would have defended.a team with ganguly has third seamer wat else u expect and that RP singh hopeless.
Your cricket sense sounds GREAT!! Because, you are comparing ZIM bowlers with SA bowlers..(that too when ZIM played their 2nd ODI in their history..yes, ZIM made their ODI debut during 1983 WC)
And again,ur logic is great because When kallis scored 91 off our world class bowling attack n fielding you praised him like anything..but when sachin or someone scored 99 against SA attack, that is not worth right???what a great brain u have!!! shame on such india cricket fans!!
I bet AUS or SL would have definitely won this game comfortably if they defend 242 against SA. That is called as World class bowling and fielding!! Hope u start to understand criket soon
Again, a good batsman is not the one who can hit against any kind of bowling attack and he is the one who should know which balls to hit and which to defend!!! Otherswise he will be branded as a gully thanda cricketer and cannot be a world class like sachin.

Coming back getting out without fight... 2007 world cup... Against Bangladesh..... 0 Against Sri Lanka...... 0 With Ireland ............4 Then, scoring 99 out of 143 means spoiling of 7 overs..( can be construed as short of 42 runs).
Even Dinesh Karthik could have scored run a ball and scored a century(He smashed 19 runs of nine balls), why Sachin?

Remember NZ in 1983 WC scored at 12 runs per over with 8 wickets down. that too for 12 overs. That time at Tentbridge Kapil made 170 runs agains Zim.
last five overs 50-60 runs is possible. But who is there to make it? We veggie weak Indians ? Ladies waist boyz? hense defeat

The 1,500 metres running is a premier middle distance track event. men's world record performance by Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco in 1998 in 3:26.00 minutes at Rome olympics. and women's record is 3:50.46 min by Qu Yunxia of China Beijing olympics.
however to make it easier for you I give 7 minutes 40 seconds double of womens record time to complete 1500 metres.
If you can not make it then make records as growing long hair or nails or eating 5 kg bonda in seven minutes etc..... That is better for you.
Try that to just know what the sports is then comment on cricket
Had Adam Gilchrist scored 99 runs in world cup in 143 balls, Sri Lanka would have won the cup. But Gilchrist scored otherway.! During 2003 world cup... Ganguly had scored two centuries against Kenya. And at this world cup, he scored again Bangladesh wasting 70 dot balls and with Bermuda. Now he has played against Ireland with so much of difficulty............ SHAME ...Selectors...

RE:Kallis made the difference

With 6 wickets down and 50 odd runs remaining, one expected Rahul to apply pressure on the new batsman - there was nothing - no bowling change, no fielders moved - let's admit it - we did not see great captaincy.
It's not Kallis, but its Sachin and Sourav. Sachin wasted 42 balls (Read 99 from 141 balls) dats almost 7 overs, even if v had scored 20 more we wud have won n he wud have got his century. And talking abt sourav, he still will never stop playing politics. In d World Cup he played a painstaking half century against B'desh and then a run a ball half century against Bermuda (When every 1 had a SR of over 150) n then when v needed him 2 play against SL d crunch game he flopped. N here he played against Ireland (yet another fifty against a minnow)Bottom line is Ganguly is just bothered about cementing his place by scoring fifties, And sachin no matter what d situation is, what d team needs he's more concerned about his personal record. D way he went 4 d 2nd run 2 complete his century, shows his desperateness for adding d tally of his centuries n make his mark. I bet he wud never had run d 2nd run had he been on any other score.
If people are talking about weather and d pace of d wicket and d SAF bowlers being world class, then is not sachin d best batsman in d world?? D master blaster?? Only player to reach 15, 000 runs (Read another 50 odd runs 2 go), only player 2 score 42 centuries. It's really a pity that we still call him a d best batsman in d world. Yeah he's d best batsman but only 4 his personal records.

In suitable condition all can bat..... we dont require Sachin. Specialist is required to face unsuitable condition. Remember one world cup inning where India were 17 for 5, then went scoring 265.Great knock of Kapil's 175 not out.

sachin tendulkar, thank you verymuch for contributing to indian cricket in the form of grabbing most records in batting, and for contributing to other teams (consuming more balls, Fail while chasing a target etc) to win against india. I think its really hard to waive the privelage and money in just a moment calling-off.Saching please continue till you make enough money.But please then dont speak about indian cricket and the stratagies for victory. In order to win first the mindset must be changed.That will never happen

I guess it has become a fashion to critize Sachin... though one has to admit that he is not his former self... but he is still a very good cricketer... it amusing to see people challenging his commitment to the team, since if you can remember correctly it is always sachin who won or lost the game for us...this shows how much we are dependant on him... what ever India has achieved in ODI's till 98 was due to sachin and him alone... he realises that once he is out, there is no one else to play and hence tries to hang in there till the end... so when ever he stays we win comfortably and hence he doesnt get credit and when ever he gets out we lost and he gets all the blame. This is the Irony of Indian Cricket... People are going Ga ga over Dhoni... whom you will find is very inconsistant and has not been performing at all in the last 6 months... what about Dravid? I dont remember him playing one good innings in the last one year? Nor has Yuvraj performed? So stop blaming a single person for the failure... it is a collective failure and everyone is responsible for it...
