RE:Perforamnce Rankings dont matter for Sachin

Yeah, doesn't matter whether Tendulkar keeps performing in International cricket or not. Doesn't matter whether Tendulkar remains the highest run getter for India in every series. yet he should be dropped. Why ? Just !! Dosen't matter whether Tendulkar averages 56 in Tests and almost 47 in ODI's against the strongest team in the world, Australia. At the same time, Ganguly does have the liberty to average 23 in ODI's and 31 in tests against the same Australian team.

u r right. but u need to improve your language skills. which school did you go to.. oh u must e bihari or up bhaiya who has been bashed out of bombay rcently.. is it the case ..
Sachin Tendulkar and other Indian Players are Playing in IPL, So what is the Point in Releasing these Latest Rankings, Sahin Tendulkar was in Top 10 after Australia Test and Tri-Series, He has not Played any Compewtitive Cricket Since then, Then what is the Point of this Rankings.
RE:Sachin Tendulkar has not Played any Test Since Australia..............................
by Marathi Manoos on May 27, 2008 07:58 PM
he is not capable of playing the sort of cricket he has played. his performance has peaked out so the ranking has come down.. and it was bvound to. u take it easy
Sachin is a great player. But he is one of the worst captain. So keep concentrate in your batting and let any other to lead the team...(actually Pollock was doing good b4 he came..)

Since it is Dhoni NOT Karunanidhi who is in charge of Chennai Team, why should we suppport a Losing Mumbai over a good Chennai Team?
Tendulkar its showing very clearly in IPL that Mumbai si loosing matches because of your captaincy...and its very sad for we fans to see you losing like this and you runs are also very less and very slow. Please retire
RE:Tendulkar please retire
by kraft on May 27, 2008 07:43 PM
Dont blame Tendulkar. He comes under the category of "SOFT" Captains like Dravid,Kumble Laxman,Gilchrist and [to some extent] Ganguly. these "Captains" , though good in "gentlemen's leisurly Cricket are totally out of place as Captains in this fast, tense T20 Cricket. Only money is forcing them from voluntarily quitting before getting the Boot!

Look at at his team mates before commenting. Mumbai lost 2 winning matches only because other team mates panicked at the last moment and did not shown their grit at the time when it was required the most. You must be insane to suggest asking Tendulkar to retire for an inane justification.
if you want to know how to lose a winning match, turn to Mumbai. they themselves dug a grave for themselves. sloppy fielding cost them the match and virtually the SF bearth. The costliest team is left to count its cost now.
i now fancy Delhi Chances of lifting the cup. they are current Ranji Champions. old horse, Magrath will lift his game. Gambhir is quite gambhir in batting. and if it's sehwag day then god bless the bowlers.
i am from ranchi but i don;t support Dhoni's team. Nothing against Chennai, but i will put my money on delhi to lift the cup. Rajasthan royals have won too many matches for a comfort. they will have to lose some matches. and it would be Semi Final. Nostradamus .... no, it's a gut feeling.

If you think deeply you will understand that "soft" captains cann't win T20 GAME!Dravid,Tendulkar, Laxman,Gilcrist,Ganguly[to some extent] come under this category.But hard nuts to crack like Dhoni,Yuvraj,Warne and Sewag are doing well.
RE:Mumabi - mum and bai bai
by Sandy on May 27, 2008 08:01 PM
Ha ha ha. You would have put Sehwag under "Soft" category had DD being out of the race. By the way, where you'll put Pollock, Harbhajan, and Pointing?
Yesterday Mumabikar lost their match to Rajasthan due to Sachin slow run rate. If you have noticed there is no six whereas new kids hitting sixes. Another humiliation unknown young player making Saching out by routing out his stumps
RE:RE:If you agree with me
by rediffblogger on May 27, 2008 07:21 PM
hey AK, mumbai lost not due to any slow run rate. If u analyse closely 32 runs were needed in last 2 overs. Any team with a decent bowling attack would have been successful in defending this total, given that two lesser known players were at the crease. But even God cannot help this Mumbai team if u look at the sheer number of overthrows at critical junctures and also when Jayasuriya in the end could not hold onto the ball to run out the batsmen. MI only have themselves to blame for this hapless performance. Also i guess a team incapable of keeping its nerves in the last two overs does not deserve to be in the semis.
