mom, wake me up when sachin batting. dhoni said many times, he used to watch cricket when sachin batting. no one takes lara as inspiration, but many cricket lovers, loves sachin batting and the way of he playing, his records, statistics tells everything. i dont know y MAN OF THE MATCHES given to player. still sachin is the no.1 in MOM's, no.2 sanath jayasurya. ANY WAY, ALL THE WORLD KNOWS- SACHIN IS NO.1 NO.2 (BRADMAN/LARA/PONTING)
BUT PITY PONTING NEVER TREATED AS NO.1 CAPTAIN, THOUGH HE LIFTED 2 WORLD CUPS
he is always wrong.. He was never the best captain in the world as he thinks he is.. he just got a fantastic team... I believe, Stephen Fleming was better than him..Look at him, how poor he was given a chance to captain a mediocre team like KKR.. Sachin and Lara, both are great.. I don't know who is better. Sachin seems to be better in ODIs and Lara in Tests.. But one thing is always true about Ponting, that he says bu11sh1t at will.. once he said IPL is waste and now he is playing it...

Agree. Dhoni has won more matches for India in few years single handedly then Sachin in 20 years. Here, nobody is doubting Sachin ability but the fact remains he has not won many matches for India.
pointing has made a point.may pundits agree with his view and as also many indians including me.all the three are all time greats and Lara was defintely more destructive and won more matches for his country.Sachin is a legend in our country and deservedly so.equally there is different shade of opinion pl accept.the comments i read aginst pointing by the readers are outright cheap and betrays their narrow and sick intolerant mind.the bebate on lillee vs holding or robets,macgrath vs walsh,botham vs hadlee,kapil,imran.Richardsvs sunil gavaskar ,warne vs murali ,trumanvs lindwall and even sangakara vs jayawaradane -shall be on.but do not demean a person who takes a varied view.the mind that creates demi gods out of mortals are mediocre and unworthy of a retort.
Australia had the best chance to win on a batting paradise.The wickets will be more sporting at other venues & english pacers will make life tough for a weak Aussies batting line up.It could be a 5-0 for England unless Aussies come up something extraordinary that none of us have seen in their team
For many of the record holders in India, winning the game is not as important as gaining personal credit. Only in the ercent times, we are looking healthy. I think it stopped @ Kapil captaincy earlier
Dhonis achievement includes sachins presence in the game. Sachin is a nightmare to the opponents and their first target is getting him out and get a deep breath.
