There is a talk that Kumble, if declares himself fit to play, he may replace Laxman for the Third Test. Possibly the only player from Famous Fabulous four, who has not clicked in last two games, still would it be fare to ignore Laxman. Why not recall his performance of 2001 in India (281) / 2000 in Australia (167) & also two hundreds in 2004.
With the Crashing Share Market, will this festival worth celebrating or would we be seeing more suicidal deaths of Day Traders/Investors or even Brokers?
Both Sachin and Ponting are going to play till equal ages; lets say 37/38. ponting is 1.5 years younger than sachin. on an average 10 tests are played by an international cricketer. so that means he will play 15 tests after sachin retires. as of now the gap between both is 1800 runs. ponting will have to score these runs in 15 test, or maximum 30 innings --> at an avg of 60, which with his current down the hill form, is not gonna happen. And if sachin widens the gap of 1800 runs before he retires, ponting cannot even dream about the record.

No point in talking such non-sense.Till retirement sachin will reach around 15-16 thousand runs.Which is way beyond ricky's reach.So ricky has best option to retir b4 the batting mestro Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar.
