another example: check the statistics of no. 5 bowler Ashwin. His statistics is better than no.4 kumble. So how did this stupid reporters put kumble above ashwin? Ashwin got same no. of wickets as better economy rate in fewer balls.

but kumble took less wicket while bowling 100 more balls and has slghtly higher economy rate. If this was criteria then why not use it for batsmen too? ganguly would be one of the top five that way because he has palyed lot more balls than others

Deepak's reply to Aam Aadmi is correct. But Aam Aadmi asks a valid question about Kumble having more opportunities to get wickets! The conclusion is that no formula is perfect. This exchange was very useful. Thanks!

look at what sourav has done.With an average bunch of Indian players he has fought till last.His captainship , batting and fielding was great. KKR is probably along with Rajasthan Royals the weakest team in tournament.
I know in after 1986 India never wins test series in aboard. After a long gap about 10 years, India starting winning test matches in aboard. It was good batting performance of Indian Batsman like Sachin, Draid, Ganguly. Dhoni is enjoying only the standard maintained by these three batsman. If u see records Sachin Average in winning test matches is more than 65 and Dravid also same. But Sachin dominate this world cricket in One day and test matches that why he is the best player.

stupids didn't take the avg into account so this so called batsmen may get all out scoring 100 in 10 overs. Is that the kind of team you want to send to WI?

Please note that these are not typical IPL players, like Robin, Yusuf, Irfan.... etc.... who all are stars in IPL and useless when playing for India..... but Yuvi, Gauti, Viru, Dhobi r the real stars of Indian cricket.....
For me Sachin is the Best player of this cricketting world. So our PM and President should send a message asking Sachin to play in T20 World cup. Without Sachin many cricket lovers will not see any match of T20 world cup.

I suggest, you make a personal request to Tendulkar saying you will not watch the WC if he is not playing. May be he willnot refuse such a fan!
