I fail to understand why people criticise Sachin
by delguy on Dec 20, 2010 09:20 AM

I mean, people has lost their logical thinking, they dont plan, they can not analyse anything. they just like to say something and criticism scores more than apreciation,,so thats it..

nothing special
by Jaya S on Dec 20, 2010 09:07 AM  | Hide replies

Did it help the team win or save the game? - NO (only rain can save the game)

Was there too much pressure? - NO (India was out of it when Sachin came it to bat so he was batting without much pressure)

Was Sachin the lone warrior - NOT AT ALL. Almost everyone played as well or better than Sachin. Gambhir 80, Sehwag 63, Dhoni 90.

Was the pitch challenging? - NO. Absolutely not. This is the same pitch where AB scored the century in 75 balls and AMLA and Kallis hammered our bowlers.

With all the above in mind, it is safe to assume, Sachin can play only on flat tracks, when there is no pressure and everyone in the team has contributed. King of good times.

There was nothing in the wicket. But the pressure of a big total is there eventhough i have to admit nobody in their wildest dreams hopes they can make it. But still it is a very good innings. And if we manage to save it, then it becomes a big contribution. Some like sehwag threw the chance away for superhero crap. Sachin and Dhoni took it.

Sachin and Dhoni
by om shanti on Dec 20, 2010 09:04 AM  | Hide replies


In foreign conditions,under sharp pace attack Sachin has scored 143 and Dhoni has scored 123,these two are the highest scorer.

So,I suggest critics of these two players to understand why Sachin and Dhoni are exceptional players and without their performance,India would have suffered a humiliating defeat ...if Laxman,Sehwag,Raina,Gambhir and Dravid would have contributed even 150 more runs together,this match would have been evenly poised...

There is no sharp pace attack. That was only on day 1 on a damp wicket. Rest of the match has been batsmen's paradise. So dont create superhero BS.

The indian team deserves to lose. Hope they go ahead and lose the series probably by getting white washed. Its a pity to see Dravid, Laxman, Sachin still playing. Hope time has the final say when they ultimately retire and youngsters get chance.

I totally agree with you. India is not a country like New Zealand ,England, Australia( Ignorant posters note) where only few people follow cricket and on top people are tuned to other popular games as well. There are millions who play cricket. If they are given oppurtunities they will excell. India is not a country where just one player can play forever like Dravid, Tendulkar, etc etc. It is like allowing employees to work till 70 years just because they can still work. Senseless.

Hello ,Nobody is calling Warne. It is just media discussion. By the way if you are living in Mumbai or Kolkotta which has more than 25 million population , Australian polpulation is less than Mumbai. Actually very few people and even fewer follow cricket. Do not be under the impression that just because Australia were no.1 , that craze for cricket is like in India. Indian can only play cricket as they can become batsman and just roll wrists to score or do spin. or be in slips and make useless records .No one knows Tendulkar in Europe, USA etc.It is only in India( and friends Pakistan, Bangladesh ,SL) and some cricketing public. Cricket is not Universal game.public

Sachin, Dravis and Laxman must be kicked out. Infact no one must play more than 10 years in Indian team. It is equivalent to working till 60 or 65 years in a job. Others must be given chance. It is a style and tradition in this country with few oppurtunities to thing that a person is indispensible.

Even people want only Gandhi- Nehru. Feels no one else can rule. Once Rahul Gandhi is PM they will want to keep him for forty years just because people feel no one else is there. Tendulkar is not playing individual game like Tennis, Badminton.

You seem to be a stupid guy, a trait common to your community perhaps. Raina is not a test specialist and with more chances he will definitely show his class. I dont consider what sachin has done as an achievement. When a stupid like you can reply with some advice, there is nothing wrong is commenting as one feels.

Youngsters should definitely get a chance if they deserve.
But should you throw out someone simply because he older even if he performs better that youngsters.
Laxman has saved the team from brink of shameful defeat many a times.

Dont forget its the indian team with only youngsters which has won the 5 odi series against the new zealand. What sachin can do any youngsters with enough chances can surely do. Sachin' style of playing is selfish. No wonder the team loses even if he manages to get to his century. The team should play as a unit and no individual is bigger than the team and this applies to sachin also.
