4 innings?
by vinay on Sep 22, 2011 03:52 AM

i suppose 2 innings for each side means not new innings. but it shud b 1st inning shud continue

eg if ind scores 100/3 in 1st inning of 25 overs then eng plays their 1st innning n scores 90/4 in 25 overs, then in next ind inning, score shud continue from 100/3 n the same not out batsman shud start the game from where they left.
the batsman shud start from the

This is unbelievable! Sachin is criticized as being selfish if he does not speak up on the grounds that someone with that much influence should be using it more to improve the game that gave him so much. And, if he does speak up he is trashed, again for being selfish and as one who wants to protect his personal records! Such a thankless world. In any event, his is just an opinion and it is upto the ICC to consider it. Personally speaking, one-dayers HAVE become dull in the 20-40 over period and the conditions more often than not determine the outcome of the game before even a ball is bowled. It would be a better use of everyone’s time & energy if they considered the idea on its merits than dwelling on Sachin’s motivation to come up with one.

If ICC had agreed to his proposal, the master plaster would have asked for royalty for each of the match played in this format as idea was suggested by him...

The master plaster is suggesting this for two reasons:
1. He cannot bat or field continuously for more than 25 overs as he is getting old. With this format, he can continue playing for another decade
2. No one can break his records for max number of centuries.. Does any one remember how he fought to get into opener slot so that he can have more number of overs to score centuries?

He is very Smart

This selfish guy is too smart. If one day cricket is split into 4 innings, then nobody in the world can beat his century records...What a selfish guy is this?

HELP INDIAN CRICKET
by ADOLF HITLER on Sep 21, 2011 07:19 AM  | Hide replies

Sachin shld try n help Indian cricket 2 unearth new talent (bowlers). We don't need batsmen anymore. Its the bowlers who help u win matches.

Fail 2 understand as 2 why we hv neglected this aspect that our bowling s weak. No doubt we hv won a few series recently overseas but the world cup 2011 was a big disappointment asfaras the bwlers were concerned.

No opposition has any fear when they face the Indian bowlers. Even f we take 4/5 quick wickets at the top, we fail 2 finish off the tail & as a result hv lost some matches.

Unless we produce quality bowlers who r physically very fit we r bound 2 get beaten. For this I admire the pakistani cricket.

Now don't say they indulge in match fixing... Apart frm that whenever they spot a talent they straightaway throw them into the internatinal arena and 8/10 times they r successful. Whereas we in India make them play domestic cricket, send them 2 Australia (where there natural skills r destroyed) & then after 1/2 years induct them.

Sachin try n unearth young talent for the Indian cricket as its the best way u will help the country....
