RAKESH- U MUST hv god father to be in indian team. as u r far better than pathan and zaheer ur baroda mate. but they hv god father of kiran more and ansuman giakwad. but u dont hv any so i dont think u will get chance to be in team. u r highest wicket taker last year ranji and this is u r third highest wicket taker. so what???/ please ritered from cricket and do some work so atleast u will get ur bread and butter
Rakesh Patel not included in 2nd ODI! Joginder was selected for his domestic performance but was not given a fair chance. Now Bose has been included in team. Even Rakesh Patel shud be looked into as an option and be tried fairly so as to judge his talent at intnl. stage viz-a-viz domestic performance. Also it is said that 'always give a chance to players when they are in form.'
Ya i agreed with this artical as i have seen Rakesh Patel bowling. He is excellent perfomer. If you check his Ranji records, he perform consistentaly in everey season. And the place from where he belongs has good/organized cricket. You might know Dipak Patel who played for NewZealand belongs to same region (Dandi - Navasari). I chcekd player list today and he is not in eleven list. Anyway best of luck for indian team and hope they will win this match.
Its really funny, Article is on rakesh patel. Discussion is going on Sachin. I had started watching cricket 12 years ago, after seing a briliant century by Sachin. So am die hard fan of Sachin. But frankly there should be a performance criteria for every player, whoever it is. For betterment of sports in India.
A billion peoples one man with determinant break all record in a cricketing world.And what we do.We trying to pull him downer and downer till downest ,criticise him and except him to winning all match single handly.Why we so jelos of sachin... is it because he is a hardwork.genius.Or becose he earn most money that we can even imagine or becose he has a devotes wife and 2 happy children or becose inspite of all these he is such a down earth and simple person...or becose most of us always aspire never get any of the above why are all of us so jelos of this man...think about it

You stupid, Sachin built the innings with Dravid, which was needed then. Team India lost two players early and if Sachin and Dravid had also gone we would not have been in a position of 242. Stop blaming Sachin and Sourav. Its very easy to blame when u r not playing. Have you ever played a single match even at Ranji level to comment on great players like Sachin & Sourav???????????????

I think if there were australian players in this situations they would have scored 300 from 36 for 2...Even Jaysuriya and co. would have scored at more run rate than what sachin/Dravid scored.Its all a mind game and Indian team looses the match in the dressing room itself even before coming to the ground.

u r right citizen ....he is making money now...iam not commenting his past history ..but yes at this stage of his carreir he is interseted more in other jobs(Like Income tax) rather then playing for India....He is a icon in India so we should expect a example from him not making money or fighting with income tax..dept......
in a billion people one man with determination breaks all records in the cricketing world.and what do we do.we try to pull him down ,criticize him and expect him to win all matches singlehandedly...why are we so jealous of sachin... is it because he is a hardworking genius..or bcos he earns more money than we can even imagine..or bcos he has a devoted wife and 2 happy children..or bcos inspite of all this he is such a down to earth and simple person...or bcos most of us will always aspire but never get any of the above....why are all of us so jealous of this man...think about it

I do agree with you partly, not fully. As sombody rightly said, `Nobody above the game'. Every player must contribute positively. Look at the game attitude of Australians, then even drop Mr. Brett and won the world cup. We are proud of Sachin as he being an Indian and we are Indian too. Similarly, we expect his match winning game not other way round match loooooosing game.

You rightly said - Everybody should contribute positively. We were 192 for 2 in 40 overs. What we did in 50 overs 242? What other players did?What Yuvraj did? He is there for a long time? Why not blame him?

Gentlemen Mr Patil, Please don't be so emotional, Your sincere bonding with that so called crick genius is at stack for long, He earning because we are watching cricket, we are not jealous of him at all on his money creeping or happy close family affairs. He was not at all comfortable for last two years, should have been step down long ago.
Because of a filth crick syndicate he is still hanging there

why you think to replace Sachin ?? Do you think that sachin won the world cup 1983. We have lot of capable players only require chances to prove. better let him decide to retire gracefully instead of playing cricket only for his ad contracts

Well miss u maybe die hard fan of Sachin but we doalso accept him as one of the great cricketer but u do also admit this fact since last two years has he perfomed well now don't say every body has bad patch but dear if as per your saying and sachin's caliber do we expect such form from him. Now think twice before answering.

I think people blame sachin only because they have lot more expectations from Sachin than what he is doing now...The high expectations are only because of the hype that has been made when he came to international cricket. At that time there were no such players so we all though that he is a genius but now a days cricket and players have progressed so much that we feel sachin is no playing well...I think Sachin is at his own place where he was earlier but other cricketing world has moved ahead...so stop calling sachin 'God of cricket' and all.

because i watch cricket for 8~9 hrs, not to see a selfish bugger go out and make runs. instead to C team india's win.if he would have saved some 20 balls in previous game team india would have won.

to make understand, ball is not coming proparly on a bat & if he have not scored 99 runs, India might be all out somewere around 100 or 120. IF you are spending so much time watching cricket , why the hell you don't understand it.
If henceforth reply such a stupid way, i will give you a strong slap.... sattak, sattak

Hello,
We all know cricket, the ball was not coming on to the bat at the early part of the game when the ball was new.. what meakes him to slow down after 30 overs and when he was crossing his 80's .. that obviously puts pressure on dravid and others ..
You want to open the innings .. so that you can score more runs for record , get more changces for man of the match, man of the serious, get Car prices .. , ofcourse he has to build a healthy innings for team .. not for him .., he has to understand his role in the team ..india has to win matchs to regain it glory and also to build an young team.

Dont tell all the nonsense things that ball not comming on bat ,ball never comes to bat instead bat has to go at ball.it all depends on concentration . see how kallis played. our cricketers has concentartion on endorsements.they havent learnt mistakes after the world cup qadebacle

Yaar so called citizen... i would like to know first what are you? u must not be working, even if working may not be a talented... u r surprised.. u may be thinking how do i know about u? simple u are degrading the hard work of others.. it reveals that u just fit to be a politician. try in politics.. m sorry if my words hurt u. But think we cant speak properly if 2 much crowd is there, we hesitate, we fear of being commented. Just think about sachin, he must always be in pressure for being observed by crores of people in TV.He is also human being... still he plays the game.. We get angry if we are commented, so also sachin.. just think practically..

My dear citizen ..
I'm wondering how talented you are .. to judge an persons skills by just looking at his single line of comment .. sachin is not a newcomer to worry about crores of people watching him ... his only worry is about the crores that he has to earn ...

hey citizen, you have no other job but just spending time 8-9 hours to watch cricket, really distressing, but still you don't understand the game.ooohhhhhh
This is the indian cricket board who has not choosen any person like him(Rakesh) and they belived those who have played lots of matches for country. I think this is the realy time to inspect anybody who was called up by board for this tour for immedialty basis. we have to play some fast attacking bowlers against RSA. bcz india have not any pace attack like aus, nz or rsa so we examine these guys for this time.
