Tendulkar a great source of motivation: Dravid

Re: For mental sunil vaidya by Sunil Vaidya on Jun 19, 2011 03:59 PM mental ashish kumar, sahcin was a failure in the 1st test where he could not face the quality fast bowlers of SA under difficult conditions. we lost first test mainly because of dismal performane by sachin. it was dhoni who lasted most in that first inings and inspite of his more illustrious and experienced team mates like sehwag, sachin, laxman, dravid falling quickly he kept the fight and india were able to score more than 100 runs. on that fast 1st inings track nobody lasted more deliveries than dhoni, not even sachin lasted that many balls. even in 2nd innings facing a huge deficit of over 400 runs it was our super openers who made good score. sehwag made 63 and gambhir made 80. captain dhoni played a captain's innings and carried on the good work and scored 90 runs. in the 2nd test that we won again sachin was a massive failure as usual. only because of laxman who topscored in both innings and dhoni who played fighting knocks in both innings and our fabulous bowlers we won that and once again it was proved that we do not need sachin to win overeseas. we won against SA in SA on a deadly pitch even after another expected massive sachin failure...once again it was the other 10 tough guys who were responsible in winning an away test inspite of another failure by sachin as usual...    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Re: Re: For mental sunil vaidya by Sunil Vaidya on Jun 19, 2011 04:50 PM there u go again sonu, i had explained everything in my post and u reply to that not understanding what i have written. your grasping power is there for everybody to see. you did not understand one single sentence in my above post inspite of the fact that i written it in deatil and in simple language and u replied with your junk... i will try again but sonu i dont think u will get it. sonu pitch was at its WORST during our first innings in first test. at that time sachin should have fought it out and scored well. but he simply hit out at everything that he could in the hope of making as many runs as possible when he realised that he could not last long on this pitch...dhoni came under much pressure than sachin did, and still dhoni fought it out and faced more deliveries on that pitch than sachin did... even in second innings sachin came after the first 3 batsman scored 63 (sehwag), 80 (gambhir) and 43 (dravid). these 3 fought it out under huge pressure while coming in to bat after 400 runs deficit. then dhoni followed it with 90 runs. even is 2nd test the test which we WON both laxman and dhoni scored MORE than sachin. and our bowlers finally won the test for us. once again inspite of failure by sachin we won abroad. this time in SA against SA on the worst pitch of that series. and on THAT pitch BOTH LAXMAN and DHONI scored more than sachin.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Re: Re: Re: For mental sunil vaidya by Sunil Vaidya on Jun 19, 2011 04:53 PM sachin's good scores in that series came when the pressure was relatively less or when the players before him had put up a good score. all other times when pressure was less or when the players before him failed sahcin also failed. even in odi series that followed sachin made only 7 and 24. contrast that scores with the last 2 odis against sa in indian conditions. while dhoni scored more than 7 and 24 runs, i.e. 25 and 38 runs thus both times scoring more than sachin. finally sachin became 'injured' and ran home back to india.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: For mental sunil vaidya by Sunil Vaidya on Jun 19, 2011 06:21 PM sonu once again afraid to face the truth. u people claim that sachin did well in SA in test and odi series. i proved you wrong on both points. you have nothing left to argue. so you run away to search for some other point which point again i have discussed at length before. sachin failed in sa test series when it mattered the most. in first test first innings if we had reached a good score we might have been able to draw that test. but even after first few wickets falling cheaply sachin did nothing to improve the situation. he just hit out as if it was odi or T20. he was soon back to the pavilion. when dhoni came the position was even worse but like a true fighter dhoni fought it out to take india above 100 runs. he was the one who faced the MAXIMUM no. of deliveries. for somebody who u people claim cannot play overseas on difficult tracks in difficult conditiions against difficult bowlers this innings is a slap. dhoni lasted longer no. of balls than all the specialist and more experience batsmen than him. even in 2nd innings it was his 90 runs which was the bright spot. in 2nd test again he did well under pressure. he failed only in the sole innings of the first test. but do u know sonu at the start of the 3rd test who lead the batting aggregates? it was dhoni who was india's leading run scorer after the end of 2 tests. even in the odis that followed before getting ''injured'' sachin made 7 in first odi dhoni made 25, sachin made 24 in the 2nd odi dhoni made 38...

Re: Re: Re: Re: sachin cannot play on SA pitches by Sunil Vaidya on Jun 19, 2011 04:18 PM anukriti u will not understand cricket in this life. forget it. sachin is no. 4 batsman in tests. dhoni is no. 7 batsman in tests. you will never grasp what that means. the batting potentional of no. 4 position and batting potential of no. 7 is beyond your understanding. when sachin comes to bat he has plenty of quality batsman available with him and knows he wont run out of partners easily. dhoni comes after all specialist batsmen are out and he has only the tail enders left with him to bat. but i guess you wont be able to grasp what that means. anukriti, many people here (including you) think that all pitches in india are flat and pitches outside the sub continent are fast pitches. you can not be more wrong. even in india there have deadly pitches and even in sa, eng, aus, wi there have been paata (flat) wickets. in india mumbai ponting's aus lost to india in 2 days and a few hours probably the shortest test in terms of time. that was not a 'sub continent' pitch. similarly even in sa eng wi aus plenty of dull draws have been played out. for people like you whenever sachin bats it is always a fast pitch and whenever other indian players bat it is always flat track.. but i guess all this will go above your head... anukriti PLEASE read cricket for dummies at once and in a few centuries you should be able to argue logically and intelligently with me....    Forward   |   Report abuse

He played the most imp. Inning of his life in wc finals. Earlier his scores of 183* vs SL, 148 vs Pak wr brilliant. I wrote an article ‘yuva shakti’ in jansatta after these 2 marvellous innings of dhoni. Besides these he played sm imp. Innings wid yuvraj that time against pak. Bt his performance outside sub continent hs also been a point of worry. If dhoni starts playing like sachin, dravid, laxman , sehwag outside sub continent , team India wl remain on top. Bt still he is a gud batsman n hope he wl prove his worth wid bat outside subcontinent in near future.

Re: Re: Re: Dravid - great captain by ASHISH KUMAR on Jun 19, 2011 12:10 PM After dravid as captain, india has not win a single series abrod againt quality team. Lost Aus in Aus (captain kumble) Draw agiant SLK in SLK (captain was politician dhonu) Draw against SA in SA (Captain was dhoni). Now If India beat WI in WI (mind u player like lara, gyle, bravo all in team)- its not a big deal. But now this time if india beat WI B grade team- it will be treated as big deal as politicain dhoni is captain. India beat england in England (when players like flintoff still playing)- no big deal. But this time if india beat eng in eng- it will be shown as big deal. India beat pak in pak when thire bowling attcak was bteer- no big deal. But if dhoni lead team beat pak in even on Indian soil (that aslo b grade pak team)- it become a big deal. Come out of this political mindset mr Vijay    Forward   |   Report abuse
Re: Re: Re: Re: Dravid - great captain by anand on Jun 19, 2011 01:19 PM Dravid is a good player & consistenly won test matches for India. but he is not a great captian. msd captiancy credentials is beyond question. a decent batsman & wk with captiancy he is performing brilliantly.    Forward   |   Report abuse
Re: Re: Dravid - great captain by ASHISH KUMAR on Jun 19, 2011 12:04 PM Even for T-20 wcup 2007, It was dravid own decision that young team should go for T-20. he convinced sachin/ganguly to plaese opt out of T-20 wcup. Sachin as a legend agreed but ganguly needed some argument before convinced. What politicain dhoni did after wcup win (his own contribution with bat was nil in that tournamnet also), he criticized dravid/sachin & back stabeed dravid by dropping him from ODI. ODI career of dravid/laxman was shortened due to regional politics of dhoni. But both these players are so honest/ethical that they never underperformed in test under same politicain captain dhoni. It is a ahrd fact all the test series win major contribution has come from laxman/dravid along with sachin/kumble.    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Dravid - great captain by pravin sarode on Jun 19, 2011 01:12 PM 331 = Sachin Tendulkar Rahul Dravid :- made at Hyderabad against New Zealand. That day, Tendulkar scored his highest ODI score = 186 till that day and was unbeaten as innings finished after starting as opener. His partner, Rahul Dravid, scored 153 himself which is his highest ODI score as well. Together, these two vetern Indian batting stalwarts put on 331 from 45.2 overs for the second wicket against a strong New Zealand bowling lineup of Chris Cairns, Shane O'Connor, Chris Drum, Daniel Vettori and Chris Harris. I fail to under stand what went wrong in 2007 when india knocked out of 2007 icc world cup when dhoni under performed with harbhajan and agarkar to gift match to shri lanka and bagaladesh    Forward   |   Report abuse

Re: Dravid- the great by sunil vaidya on Jun 19, 2011 11:41 AM you are right. dravid should bave been there in place of sachin. sachin was a disaster in the odis series in SA. but of course that is not surprising as he is always clueless on bouncy pitches against quality bowlers...    Forward   |   Report abuse
