I'm no Sachin-basher - but I'm surprised by the statements of these great cricketers - Sachin and Warne - complaining about pitches, that too for T20 match. Looking at RR performance after their home pitch was changed - it looks they would have won fewer had they played on normal pitch. But media is happy praising Warne's leadership. Except for the inaugural IPL - Warne's influence on the team hasn't been that great.
whatever sachin maybe saying now,MI has reached the last 4 stage,and it is a foregone conclusion that MI will win IPL IV. before IPL IV started & in between matches, ravi shastri & harsha bhogle had written & aired on TV their views that IPL trophy is the only thing missing from sachin's cupboard. these two(ravi & harsha)are very close to sachin, & what they write or say is what sachin means.looking to sachin's clout within the BCCI it will be seen that sachin's wish is fulfilled this year.last year MI lost the finals with CSK due to sachin sending pollard to bat very late. so even if sachin is cribbing regarding the pitch he will win the trophy.

No doubt Sachin is a great batsman but now he plays only for his runs. His fans will not agree with this but the fact is recent records show whenever he is topscorer for the team on most of the occassions his team is on losing side.

PLS USE YOUR BRAINS IF YOU HAVE......! U GUYS R ENVIOUS OF SEEING HIS CENTURY GOING IN VAIN, BUT U DONT SEEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT 10 OTHERS HAVE NOT PLAYED WELL IN THAT SPECIFIC MATCH.
Sachin, you have become a sore loser ! complaining about wickets all the time, whenever you lose. Mebbe its because you could never become a successful captain for India during your stint. You are trying to prove your captaincy skills with MI. If not for Malinga, MI would be in the bottom half of the table in this IPL edition.

yep..same with BLR..without Gayle, they wud hav been 10th...RR w/o Shane wud hav been also on 10th...
Damn you sachin, you just broke a billion hearts by cracking up on pitches every time you loose. Be a man! Its sachin who lost the game, he was the played who was completely set and was supposed to finish the game. Instead got out when mumbai needed him. Now goes on to press and cries and whines just like he did in Rajastan. Sachin is no more a God for me, he is a mere mortal.
