His contribution as a batsman was little but behind the stumps he was superb. The way he was gathering the bowl of Ishant and Bhajji, it was just amazing. As a captain no one can point out his contribution. He was superb as always.
Dravid is technically very sound. On broken pitches sometimes better than Sachin. But in test both of them do not dominate the proceedings, only VVS who scores fluently and authoritatively.

Sacin’ll have to play another twenty years to achieve those things what VVS has gotten in a brief but productive career.

Ask the Aussies, who dominated the world cricket in the last 10-15 years. It is not only record but the quality of cricket that matters. There is no parity in runs between Gavaskar and Vishwanath, but Vishwanath is taken in high esteem despite he not from Bombay lobby.

I have no doubt on Gavaskar’s ability as he was one of the best opening batsmen India as has ever produced. But one must take opinions of the bowlers of the period. They will come out with real answers not the fanatic fans. About Sachin ask bowlers like Akram, Younis, McGrath, Walsh, Ambrose, Donald etc. They will tell you Sachin is not impregnable.
This would have been the captions everywhere, had Sachin hit the lone century to save/win India as done by DRAVID.However it is pathetic to note that no captions or at least good words about DRAVID eventhough he has won this match for India (Some loser say he was dropped at 6)
Apparently without his score in both the innings, India would have lost to a B team .
Look at the way Dhoni as a captain batted.Once Sachin and Dravid retires, Dhoni's true colors would be exposed.However, cricket is in the downsacle.
Give due credit to Dravid though he may be a Kannidaga and a South Indian

Please read the morning newspapers and then comment! Due recognition has been given to the Mr. Wall. Whether it is Dhoni, Dravid, Sachin or anybody else, let them be seen through single eye as "TEAM INDIA". that's real sportsmanspirit!!!

what nonsense sachin would have not have lasted 2 hours on this pitch forget 2 days./..
Indian batsman is nt lankan my dear or current australian team who is loosing there space by every passing day. Watch out for Indian Batsman dude, If all fit, Eng will b running all over the field, bouncy pitch will make dem dance them self. No more bouncy pitches can bounce India, dey still heavily depend on opener who both are left hander and Zaheer simply too gud 4 left handers. Sehwag, Gambhir, Dravid, Laxman, Tendulkar, Dhoni,Yuvraj and Bhajji. Come on guys, Englan need 10 bowlers to over come Indian Batsman. Even in bowling dey r gud enuf to take Eng 20 wickets. I m backing India to win 2-1 or 1-0. Go for it India
Laxman has not played international cricket for quite a long time. He also did not play much in IPL. His batting order was also changed in this test. He is more comfortable in his original batting spot No.6. Dhoni should bring Kohli as No.4 Raina as No.5 and Laxman as No.6.Our tailenders will be inspired by the presence of Laxman in the pitch and give him good support to pile runs at latter period.

I have no problem Sachin selling his car nor I say he is saint. But selling a car gifted to him for achieving a milestone make make his fans a bit uncomfortable. Do you think Sachin is facing cash crunch?

Pakistan fixed cricket news : gud morning, this is tomorow's match result, pakistan lost the match by 26 runs..afridi gone for 15, gul 56/2, amir 40/1.. lol
this young guy has shown lot of promise in difficult batting conditions.even dravid admitted it a difficult wicket to bat.mukund made a fighting 25 when most of the batsmen stuggled to put bat to ball. mukund if properly groomed can be next ghambhir
Re: Re: well done Mukund
by sweetguy on Jun 24, 2011 10:43 AM
It is not fair to compare a seasoned opener Gambhir with Abhinav Mukund. Mukund is a promising youngster who, if given good opportunity, will be a lasting prospect for Indian Test team.
Re: well done Mukund

We must admit it was a good game, good pitch, and a good fight and a good fight back from both teams! If West Indies had a 'B Grade' team, India also had quite a few, inexperienced juniors! And Dravid really lived up to his reputation as a senior. A little regret was our Very Very Special Laxman didn't show his mettle, may be the next match will be his! Keep it up, India.
