Its no surprise that a Sri Lankan resorted to such a cheap trick yesterday. Sri Lankans are known to play with a mentality of street cricketers who depend of fooling, feigning and cheating to win on most occasions. Next in this category are the undisputable Pakistanis, but Sri Lankans are the masters in this trick. Sangakkara is one big cunning fox.

Why about other countries, our own Dravid came in the way of Sachin scoring a double century by declaring the innings when Sachin was one shot away from the land mark.

Indians are known for crying if they didnt get something. If the same was done by indian dening century to opposite batsmen then it would have been a moment of pride. Shame on Indians for crying such silly things. team Victory is more important than individual records

man, see yourself in Sehwag's shoes. Sehwag is a very sincere cricketer who plays his heart out. He believed that it was a ton. A cricketer cherishes a ton.. most do not make too many tons in the game.
He added that most teams would do this and that this is not controversy.

Conveying displeasure is NO CRYING my friend. And by the way a team is made up of individuals. Both individuals as well as they performing as a TEAM is important. DONT COVER UP S H I T....when you know its S H I T.

Has it ever happened? How can you pass judgement without any historical facts to back up?
An opponent is opponent. They will try every trick in their mind. Our duty is to be well prepared. Our players shouldn't be more concerned about 50's & 100's. They should only be concern about India's win. Whatever other teams does whether its sledging or deliberately giving runs or whatever our motto should be to win.That's all now. Everyone now knows that cricket is not a gentlemen's game anymore. So better be prepared for any adverse condition rather then crying foul. This is not "Satyuga".
I think we should follow what sehwag did. Object what they did and just concentrate on what we can do further. Unnecessarily becoming more emotional and blaming the entire team or entire nation etc., may kindly be avoided.
Check out the replay,the Capt has said something about 99 just prior to the last ball being balled.Denying Sehwag his 100 does not make him reduce his capabilities in anyway.Infact he gets even more popular by this act of his opponents stooping to such lows in loosing tactics.Sri Lanka must learn to loose with grace.

"In fact he gets even more popular by this act of his opponents stooping to such lows in loosing tactics "
yesterday srilankans once again displayed their unethical attitude after depriving sehwag from what wd hv been one of the greatest century frm him.suraj randiv thought to bowl a no ball at the time whn sehwag was on 99..nd bfor this he was considered as an emerging disciplined bowler.......this is totally against the spirit of the game,,,nd will be detrimental to the interest of the game.....

dont forget there were 2 legitimate deliveries between the first ball (that gave 4 byes) and the controversial no ball. The no ball may be delibrate but then 2 balls were given to sehwag to score that elusive run.

Your argument is so funny Sachin. We are talking about the delivery where India needed one run to win and shewag also needed one run for his century.
Sehawag has not completed his century because of his own fault.Randiv is not at fault at all.Its a match & not a charity!Sehwag was knowing the reqd runs for the Indian victory & for his own century.Dhoni also helped him by just playing the balls.If Viru wanted to complete his 100,he should have accelerated his scoring earlier.Why was he expecting a gift from lanka & Randiv?

If India would act in the same manner Muralidharan wouldn't reach the 800 wickets landmark...

he was not in need of any gift but was only expecting the spirit of game from SL.

Dilip...u must watch the match and criticise.If he wouldn't accelerate the score how come We won the match in 34 overs.....u Bh Cht....simply dont critisize....The entire world knows that Srilankans players & Umpires are the worst in the Cricket world for spoiling the spirit of the Game.....

This shows your knowledge in cricket Shewag's score was already run a ball which he accelerated. Moreover we had enough balls even to get bonus points. Do not write something for the sake of writing.
