They are talking as if they plotted this plan 10 years back and were successful in their mission - just to cover their lose in the series - that's all (am not a sach's fan)

Yes they have done a great job. Think the same from their side. They have done it. Sorry for Sachin. We have to wait.

Yes, I agree. What we are seeing is the shadow of the great Sachin 10-15 years back ! And if the shadow is hitting centuries like this ( 7 centuries in 2010 !), then how must he be 10-15 years back ?! You know how Shane Warne spent sleepless nights that time !!

My dear friend they are constantly trying this weapon on him. At last they got the success.
Untill he keeps his mind free while batting it will be difficult to score the landmark, especially at 90s. Scoring a 100 earlier he might have thought about the win/save/draw of India but scoring a 100 NOW, is for his personal achievement which diverts/creates anxiety - so he fails.
Every test bowler worth his salt would try to bowl as per plan, so what is such a great thing that Ravi Rampal did? He can say whatever he wants now that he got the wicket, but Sachin's shot could have gone anywhere, it just happened to go to the right of Sammy. If WI were really great in plotting Sachin's downfall or any other batsmen then why did it take 157 deliveries and 94 runs to do that? Why did they not plan Ashwin's dismissal, after all he is a #8 batsman.
Sachin fooled everyone including his fans by playing a reckless shot in the 90's. He ensured that he will get selected anytime he wants to play, until he completes his 100th century. Before the day began, many of us felt that he will get out in the 90's. Maybe there is a huge betting market behind the scenes!
