Nice to hear but the bottomline today :oops: and the kind of shot he played when the whole team depended on him :shock:Quote:

But here, we had to win by scoring runs and when we were losing wickets at the other end, it was mandatory that he was looking to score runs at a brisk pace.
This can be interpreted in 2 ways.. :)Quote:

Guys
I am my own man!
Talking of Sachin's performance - this is not bad at all. As I mentioned, he has been playing very well in the 4th innings of a test match over the past two years.
My only comment is - he lost an opportunity to own this test match!
VVS now owns 3 test matches (to my knowledge - maybe more), Dravid owns 2 (one against Australia and the other in Calcutta against Pakistan where he scored a century in each innings)
I cannot remember a test match (against strong opposition - not Zim, Bangladesh) that we won and Sachin contributed in both innings. Maybe I am having selective amnesia.
Again, I am a Sachin fan!
At this point, let us give VVS his due. It is a travesty of justice that he has not been chosen in the all time India eleven.
Sunny G.
Sunny,
Pls don't put a mask that you are a Sachin fan. Thanks.

Another irritating comment I keep on hearing is Sachin doesn't finish the job.Quote:

Guys
some one commented that I use a different id. Hence my response that I am my own man!
I don't need multiple ids.
Please dont question my loyalty. I really am a Sachin fan. Being a fan does not mean that I have to always praise my idol all the time and not point out his limitations.
Sachin has setup many, many matches for us, in ODI and tests. He has also stayed till the winning runs are scored in many matches. The ones I remember are in ODI - e.g. One of the finals in Australia where Dhoni won his first trophy.
In this case, I agree that Laxman did not contribute in the first innings. I still think he owns this test because he was there till the end and in a winning cause. The 70 odd runs here is worth many centuries.
Again, I am NOT flaming Sachin.
I am praising VVS and Dravid (at his peak - not anymore; should gracefully retire) for their contributions.
It is sad that they are playing in an era of the greatest Indian batsman.
Sunny G.
Sachin need not own any match... He owns millions and millions of herats all across the globe... Period!!
India has own the match and sachin contributed in first innings and VVS contributed in the second innings. Sachin was close to making one more century and that part was really sad. I wish he could complete his 50 centuries in this test series.
Dravid need not retire for he has been contributing. You should retire from this thread from talking about other players and making a comparison here as it can get ugly easily any time.

The informal hub dictum here is that if you are a Sachin fan, you should always worship him irrespective of whether he commits a blunder or something silly. Otherwise, your loyalty will be questioned !
Nakkee,
Nobody can win a match on his own. Even in the famed 2001 kolkatta test Sachin took the key wickets of hayden, gilchrist and warne to trigger a middle-order collapse in the last day. What about Dravid's 180?. TA's statement nails it sachin contributed in 1st innings and lax did it in second. Atleast sachin fan's arent complaining that lax didn't contribute in 1st innings which is extraordinarily silly like your's and sunnyg's stmts.
Nice try in your last post by the way. We've missed you for quite sometime now :lol2:.

See Water, most of the fans here are crazy about Sachin not just that he is purely a match winner or just because of his great stats etc... he is a hero, we are fan of his technical brilliance, textbook shots, sincerity,dedication and off/on field image.Quote:

He is a postive reference, our inspiration! Dont compare him with any other players! Sachin is Sachin!! Period.
