Pakistan team in general is a lottery ticket. Just out of the blue they end up playing good. Every one says that they have abundance of natural talent. I believe that it is all crap. They are over rated, arrogant and misconceived about their own abilities. The ICC will help them win the world cup because that way they can keep the PCB happy and convince them not to go to the court regarding the changes in the match venues. There was a time when Pakistan had some entertaining talents, like Imran Khan, Waqar Younis and Waseem Akram. The current team is full of boisterous rank 1 amateurs who have little talent but no consistency. Personally my all time fav batsman is Brain lara and not Sachin. I find Sachin very self centric and feel he has not contributed enough for the team. Lara too played for a team that was always loosing but whenever he played a gem, his country won. Something not seen with Sachin. With all this, I can not call myself as a true cricket lover if I fail to attribute greatness to Sachin for the one thing that makes a batsman the greatest in the world. Unlike the common perception that sleek and flashy stroke plays make a batsman great, it is actually, the composure, balance, footwork, defense and consistency that are the hall marks of a great batsman and hence Sachin stands out only because of his unfaltering consistency which even Brian Lara with all his genuineness could never come close to emulate and hence comes second to Sachin in the list.

If you have not seen a match where India won a match because of Sachin's innings then I guess you just did not see cricket. Its time you accept, you are just too sachin hater and just that you cannot accept Sachin to be greater than bradman.

It is not necessary to give your whereabout to "WADA". WADA can give cricketer ring on their MOBILE whenever they want to test them and go there. There is nothing wrong what cricketer say. WADA people can use their sense and work for goodwill of sports.
