IF SEWAG FIRES AND STAYS ATLEAST FOR 2 TO 3 HOURS INDIA CAN REACH 150 AND SACHIN, RAHUL, LAXMAN, DHONI VIRAT IF CONTRIBUTE WITH ASHWIN WITH BAT INDIA CAN WIN.
The pressure is getting too much. We ordinary mortals know when at exams we just want to do well and be done with it. Likewise, Sachin gives a feeling he wants the landmark behind him soon, too soon! He is in a hurry, more than normal! He should also enjoy the ride. For that, let us play our part. Leave him alone for the time being. Aussies also piling on the pressure and making it reach boiling point! We all suffer in the end. Don't forget many among us are too on the fence; hero when he succeeds and zero when he does not - that is a typical Indian mentality - sadly!!! Just imagine having to finish typing before the page refreshes, and see now when I can type with all the time in the world!!!

Useless comparison - one can always type everything in a notepad. Then copy paste it into the forum before the page refreshes. Sachin cannot score a 100 in the practice game or county game and claim that to be his ton of tons. He has to DO it RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!!

My point Sweta is Sachin seems to be in a hurry to get to the landmark! And Aussies too are adding to his misery. My point is crystal clear, he need to relax a bit and then he and we can make hay!
Sachin made an excellent 73, so what? The media and Sacin's fans are "mourning" because he did not get that elusive century. How sad! It would have been much much better if we had a new, talented, young cricketer in place of Sachin. Our whole mind set has to change. Believe me Sachin has played his full life-time cricket and earned health, wealth, and happiness. He does not need a 'crown' of Bharat Ratna. Media is already calling him Bharat's Ratna. Let India flourish.

really..? then which "Young".."Talented" player is suitable to replace him ?...Wake up.. just see todays score card..it was sachin who scored the highest runs..ahead of "Young".."Talented" Kohli,Gambhir etc etc...
indians will always be poor travellers even against a C grafe australian team. the series is a foregone conclusion. you will wake up tomorrow morning to find india reeling at some 100 for 7 or something with 200 more required.
Bill Lawry on Cowan dismissal:Use your bat not pads.In fact after the finger went up Lawry says Goodbye you are out or something to that effect. Hard for any Indian commentator to say such things about an Indian player. Tell things as it is
Richie Benaud on commenatary on channel 9:Dhoni's poor footwork undoes him. "Dhoni has had Test hundreds but look at the footwork when he got out, hardly there and gets caught in the gully". Richie is spot on

as one great batsman has said "use of footwork is over exaturated" This he said looking at virendra sehwag score runs.
Dhoni has won us the world cup with his batting
So forget richie benaud the bowler, and listen to a well known batsman.
