Re: Dravid was best...but not now.. by ASHISH KUMAR on Jul 18, 2011 05:24 PM that applies to dhoni also. if we replace him with a capable wicketkeeper batsman like patel, we will more no. of matches at batting position 7 is crtitical in test cricket. Gill/sanga/mat prioe/boucher etc has won many matches with his bat    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Dravid is best on English Soil(and abroad too) by Delhi City on Jul 18, 2011 12:27 PM Meaningless and unknowing comments... Sachin was the best player playing with York country way back..    Forward   |   Report abuse
Re: Dravid is best on English Soil(and abroad too) by Sameer on Jul 18, 2011 10:38 PM Gireesh Have you ever heard of newsline where they talk about nullfying any other threat besides Sachin ? For most part of 20 years , the opposition team always concentrated on Sachin. Don't you wonder why they pay so much attention to one player ? Why is there hardly an article of " XYX team strategizes to nullify Non-sachin threat " Why is it always Sachin, whether he is in form or not.    Forward   |   Report abuse
Re: Dravid is best on English Soil(and abroad too) by shammi khandelwal on Jul 18, 2011 12:13 PM sachin averages 62 with the bat in England. Till date Indian has won 2 Tests in England since 1989, and SRT averages 95 in those 2 Tests.    Forward   |   Report abuse
Re: Re: Dravid is best on English Soil(and abroad too) by ASHISH KUMAR on Jul 18, 2011 05:28 PM rightly said. sachin is highest run scorer as well as biggest match winner in test for india followed by laxman. In oDI agin he is highest run getter as well as biggest match winner. he has 68 MOM in ODI a world record. Dhobiji can't win so many MOM even if he play 1000 ODI for sure.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: so by ASHISH KUMAR on Jul 18, 2011 05:31 PM also never won a test series outside agiant quality team like SA/Aus/Slk/Eng. India could only draw the series aginst SLK & SA by 1-1 & he has never played any series in Eng/Aus. So result still to be seen. Though I agree beating England in england is much easier compared to SA in SA followed by aus in Aus in test cricket as far as indian record in past is concerned    Forward   |   Report abuse
