I htink Sachin shouuldf bat lower order.This will sterngethenthe middle order with Yuvraj,DHoni.Also sachin gets chnace to play old bball and part time bowlers.Now hes not in good form and facing problem inthe initial obers.Its better to play him lower order so that it wil also boost the middle order confidence and helps himto get form back.if he bat cin middle order His probability of scuess is 90% now.We sholu dnot throw his wicket away.
I hope Sachin will make some worth while contribution in the remaining ODIs of the current series. So far, in this series he has been a complete disappointment. If we see him showing playing with the kind of responsibility that Dhoni has been showing, India may be winning the cup this time. Given Sachin's performance so far, I wonder whether it would have been better to retain Ganguly as the lone senior in stead of Sachin in this series.
India loosing so many matches with Sachin scoring very poor avg in the VB series,still he is moving up in ranking!!! Any doubt ICC is rigging the ranking as BCCI is paying them money for rigging!!!!!

He i snot magician to scor 50 every time..he also have previlage to have bad patches.Hes the highest prdformer in ODI 2007 in world..an dth ehighes the best batsman of india in th e last test series againt AUS.Hes never played as worse as Shehwag and Yuvraj in his career.He also playe din good form in the first 4 ODIs.No one is performing consistantly in any team now inthe CB series.
surely the indian team is missing the experience of dravid,ganguly and sehwag. sehwag can atleast be used as a part time bowler and a pinch hitter instead solely relying him as the top order batsman. 3 bowlers(harbajan,pathan, ishant/sreesanth), 4 alrounders(yuvraj,ganguly,sehwag and sachin can bowl a minimum of 25 overs), dhoni gambhir dravid rohit sharma will be best choice for india. timley, zaheer can be replaced in place of rohit sharma. this would be the best option with the current players. will the deciders make a good choice.
hardly it matters as team india hardly benefitted over the 20 odd years since tendulkar's arrival. Prior tothat we have won a world cup. After 1987, we have never won a test match in Newzeland, just one test win in s.africa and a test win in w.indies, still we continue to claim that we have the best in the world blah blah

Is it? I thought Cricket was a team game... :-) Pity that inclusion of Tendulkar has not allowed him to tour the said countries (NZ etc.) like the ATP tour, and win all the grand slams for himself.. :-)

Hardly have the West Indies won anything since Brian Lara's arrival in the cricketing world. Before that, West Indies used to be the strongest side in the world. It was almost impossible to beat West Indies. Since Lara's arrival, West Indies have become one of the weakest teams ever. THEN WHY IS BRIAN LARA CONSIDERED ONE OF THE BEST BATSMAN EVER ?

while talking about cricketers, please do not include Agarkar in it. We are not talking about fitness or modelling!
after a no ball, a free hit is given to the batsman. but suppose, a boler bowls second cosecutive no ball, then next delivery is again a free hit. this happened in ind's previous game in boling of ishant. Here for the 2 no balls bowled by him, only one free hit is enjoyed by the batsmn, which wud hv been 2 free hits had the no balls werent bowled consecutively. thus first free hit is vanished in that consecutive noball.
any comments abt the rules or complexity of the rules in this regard.....
