Chris Gayle said that he "wouldn't be so sad" if Test cricket eventually gave way to the Twenty20 version and hit back at Andrew Strauss, who had criticized the West Indies captain for arriving from the IPL just two days before the start of the Lord's Test, asking the England captain to "stay out of [other] people's business".
Gayle said he wouldn't mind giving up the captaincy.
"To be honest with you there's a possibility I might give it [captaincy] up - I will be giving it up shortly," Gayle told the Guardian. "It's definitely not something I'm looking to hang on to. I need some time for myself, to be honest with you, it's a lot of travelling. There's always something you have to go and do, you know, extra. Lunch or dinner, some other thing, there's always something for the captain. I'm not that type of person. I can't take on too much. So soon I will be handing over this captaincy. I [will] soon finish with it."
This man Harish Kotian, though knowledgeable on cricket, has fallen prey to the *public* viewpoint.
When Mumbai were losing, he heavily criticised Tendulkar for his batting, captaincy and almost everything. Now he should explain why Mumbai is winning with the same captain and tactics!
Kotian is one of the typical jealous Tendulkar haters who are just waiting for an opportunity to criticise him. He also uses the ugly phrase *little master*, just to feel good by calling Tendulkar short.
Mr Kotian, little or otherwise is not decided by a person's height but by his deeds. Grow up, take a stand and stick to it!
Hello Friends, I guess shreeshant was fixed for the match. 1) he was bowling miserably-still no frustration seen on his face as before. 2)He even misfielded which looked like done purposefully 3)He refused to take run on last ball ,when all batsmen run without caring about loss of wicket.

Yosuf 10 times better than Viv Richards, Munaf 10 times than Mc.Grath. This is the best joke I heard :-) Make it 10% of the other players also they are not not comparable. I'm sure you have never seen Viv in action.
