Sachin has the tendency to skip the matches telecast on channels other than on ESPN-STARSPORTS. Sachin skips the matches due to so-called injuries especially when the same are shown on SET MAX. That is the reason for him not playing IPL so far. Sachin plays for the sponsors lobby. Even during the World Cup 2007 in West Indies, it was the same story as telecast right holders were Set Max. So he played poor cricket to avoid India's progress in the next round. He skipped Sri Lanka series (SL rights are with SET MAX?). He is against SET MAX channels or against all the rival channels of ESPN-STAR with whom he has an understanding. You can recall many instances of his non-availability and its connection between the channels holding telecast rights. You observe Sachin's absence in all the series in the past and the tv rights owners during those series. You will definitely come to certain conclusion, a surprising coincidence.

Burmah ( Myanmar ) is an Isolated country. It deserves this kind of acts sethu. avan eppadi pona namakkenna ?
Shoaib knew this all the while he has been playing for last 10yrs thats the reason he can afford to do what he does. He knows in the end he has all the right people and right contacts, the powerful people who will clear him. The June end verdict is only a eye-wash. His ban stands cleared from yesterday itself.

Shoaib Remember what happened to HARBHAJAN and control your EMOTIONS otherwise you are gone again
Because of OFF-CRICKET tricks Shoaib is a Spent force now. So he will not add anything to IPL except he will be RICHER by few millions. As such we have seen BIG NAMES a BIG FAILURES in IPL. Like Ponting Symmonds,where as a novice are more refreshing to watch
