Thanks for the indication from your leader of the team :-)
India Once again lost.. time for dhoni to stop finding scape goats and give up the captains job... the guy's grown so fat that he starts panting after scoring 10 runs
Its a puzzle only known to Indian cricket selectors why he is in the team for long number of years - No Match winning abilities, breaks down in crucial encounters with quality teams, short person not able to match the likes of bouncy fast bowling from Mcgrath, Waqar, other quality bowlers etc. Let Sachin fanatics in the country host a match with Holland to help him score his 100th century. He has become a passenger in the airlines on which Indian cricketers are travelling. Why is he causing loss to National Money ?

I endorse your views, manage a match with a poor like Afganistan and help him score a century to help his records and save The team Indian from a non performing Sachin, otherwise he will stay in the team till plays world cup of 2050. Selectors and BCCI have no guts to drop him. How long will he block the place for a young playes. Sham on psycophants
India has 11 players and Tendulkar's ouster in no treason for failue. Gambhir didnt want to face short pitched bowling and looked shaky. Wht abt Sehwag and other players? India could not even hit 200. Sehwag was out cheaply.
Sachin's body language in tha above pic speaks it all. There is no desperation to make his ground. Even if he had survivied this he would have not lasted long definitely. Lee can't be blamed for his act. It was an accident and things do happen that way in a game. This all talking would have been better had the other batsmen, after Tendulkar, atleast tried to make a match of it.

how can u say that.. ur understanding says that no player should be successful once he fails in few matches.. Sachin was 2nd highest run getter in last years WC we won..

Didn't mean that. But honestly speaking, did we fight it out as a team in one single match.

performances are not linear always... if u say that after 4 matches each, India was on top of the table.... moreover, when u loose important obviously there will be burden on other players. Sachin got out in other matches, no complaint.. but this way, Iam not saying its not acceptable... its only a question of true sportsman-spirit.. Aussies never bothered to look back.

They have been playing their game that way for years together. What i wanted to say was that though their young players are less talented then ours they have been instrumental in making their team win. One bad decision can ruin the game but atleast there should have been some fight. The result "Win Or Loss" then becomes neaningless. The GAME should be the winner, ultimately.

What Rajeev said seems to be correct. I had seen the run out and it seemed that Sachin did not make any sort of desperate attempt to reach the crease in time. In fact he slowed down as he reached the crease. For me it looked like that he did not want that run at all and he was made to run to respond to Gambhir's call
