In India, those who play for country are called idiots. Those who play for themselves/records are hailed as heoros. We are so suicidal.

I am amazed at why people still havent gotten it right about why Dhoni promoted himself.
Gautam and Virat were playing with a mixed approach, which was working perfectly. While Gautam was taking chances against lesser attacks, Virat was playing the anchor role, steadily boosting partnership while playing second fiddle, and blocking the good deliveries.
When he was out, Dhoni found himself the perfect opportunity to play Kohli's role, to continue blocking deliveries that are hard, and leave the risk taking to Gautam.
In the end, when they would need to fire, Yuvraj would be next in line along with Raina.
But Dhoni himself kept going strong, mainly because of the no risk approach. It was ideal from Dhoni's perspective, because he wasnt getting enough runs, and only needed to play sheet anchor role, which he did, until all hell broke loose.
The left handed - right handed partnership was an added bonus, but the primary reason was the very fact that it was an ideal time for someone like DHONI to block deliveries and take zero risks while only rotating strike with singles.
The greatest captain India has produced, without a doubt. People get sentimental and value Kapil Dev and Ganguly, but Dhoni led a team of superstars with the firmest belief and professionalism, something that onky the likes of Imran Khan and Steve Waugh had achieved.
Remember when you failed an examination. How many people recall that, your class, friends, relatives? You failed to make it to the IITs or IIMs. Who remembers. How many times have you had the feeling of being the best in your class, school , university, state, you failed to get a visa stamped this quarter…, you missed a promotion this year…, how did it feel when you dad told you in your early twenties that you are good for nothing,and now your boss tell you the same..
You keep introspecting and go into a shell when people most of whom don’t matter a dime in your life criticize you, back bite you, make fun of you. You are left sad and shattered and you cry when your own kin scoffs at you. You say I am feeling low today. It takes a lot from us to come out of these everyday situations and move on. A lot? really?
Now here’s a man standing on the third man boundary in the last over of a world cup match. The bowler just has to bowl sensibly to win this game. What the man at the boundary sees is 4 rank bad bowls bowled without any sense of focus, planning or regret. India loses, yet again in those circumstances when he has done just about everything right.
He does not cry. Does not show any emotion. Just keeps his head down and leaves the field. He has seen these failures for 22 years now. And not just his class, relatives, friends but the whole world has seen these failures. We are too immature to even imagine what go
Re: SACHIN this is for you

goes on in that mind and heart of his.
He has single handedly lifted moods of this entire nation umpteen number of times. He has been an inspiration to rise above our mediocrity. Nobody who has ever lifted the willow even comes close to this man’s genius. His dedication and metal strength is unparallel. This is specially for those people who would have made fun of him when India loses. They are people who are mediocre in their own lives. Who just scoff at others to create cheap fun. Who have lived in a small hole throughout their lives and thought they have seen the oceans.
Imagine what would be the magnitude of the inner struggle for him, pain both mental and physical, tears that have frozen with time, knees and ankles and every other joint in the body that is either bandaged or needs to be attended to every night, eyes that don’t sleep before a big game, bats that have scored 99 international tons and still see expectations from a billion people. And he just converts those expectations into reality. We watch in awe, feel privileged.
It was time that his team realizes that enough is enough. They have an obligation, not towards their country alone but towards sachin. They need to win this one for him and they did. This is not just a game, and he is not just a sportsman. Its much more than this. Words fail here..
As Virat rightly said: Tendulkar has carried the burden of nation for 21 years; It was time we carried him.

Ratra:
;-)... Does not your comment indirectly mean that Yuvraj won the match and the cup for India?
But for his "fantastic" performance, India wouldn't even be in the Finals.... Right? After all, if he hadn't got himself out first ball; we would have found it extremely difficult to score 260 against Pakistan to set a challenging target despite Sachin's solid performance... I 100% agree with you... ;-)

I have seen so many idiots like you on rediff. Why are you all against Sachin? Most of you are pessimists who want to gain publicity by writing something against a person who has performed for the country. The most common thing people say is that he is playing for his own individual scores. Don’t these scores add up to the team total? On a pitch which was deteriorating against Pakistan he was the highest scorer at 85 when the second highest score was 53 from both the teams(Don’t talk about 4 lives, even Bradman has 99.96% with lot of lives) I am not saying we won because of Sachin. Cricket is played by 11 people. It is a team sport. Even Kapil dev's 175 would not be possible without Kirmani's 24 N.O. at the other end. It is not only the players but the Coach, Trainer, Physiotherapist and other support staff who are also responsible for the victory (Sachin was humble enough to thank them). Don’t write off Sachin's contribution because you want to gain cheap publicity. Let us be true Indians and applaud him for his efforts for over 21 years to the country. When all cricketing greats hail him as the greatest what credibility (except writing on rediff because it is free and anyone who has studied 2nd class can write) do you have to write against him. Mend your ways or somebody will hit you in life for this pessimism, from which you can’t recover nor anybody from your family can save you. Jai Hind and let God help you in c

Since you believe what Yuvraj is saying; you no doubt think that his fabulous first ball ZERO was instrumental in beating Pakistan... isn't that what you are trying to say indirectly? :)

So, whenever you wanted to gift something to your parents means they are not capable to acquire it.
Didn't Yuvraj cause a blasphemy by wiping his sweat on his face with the Flag that was around his shoulder airing his sentiments to Manjrekar. He did it for man 3 times forehead, face and mouth after a drink of water. No one tried to stop him sad....
