No Plum. The issue has certainly gone out of hands and it has left a bad taste in one's mouth.
While I agree that there is nobody above the system there is a certain way to approach things. People could have made a request to conduct a poll with Tendulkar included for opener slot or should have just remained silent. One thing to note here is That is why I said to Maddy that his timing was wrong but not his question.
Main Thread. The main thread was started in March and it went 25 pages. It's November now. Now making an issue out of it is certainly not worth discussing. Sorry to say this but I find it very very bad. Subsequent arguments have been pointless. And it's useless to be a part of this futile exercise.
Bradman XI-laye vandhutom, aama idhu enna biskothu 11 :wave:.
Sridar/plum (I said this on the first day itself)
Sorry to say this but this why I said we will just get the entire damn team from all the hubbers and get done with it. This process would have been much simpler and would have avoided so many embarrassments.
Theru izhuthu nadutheruvula vittadhu dhan micham.
Plum, You have done a thankless job till now. I wholeheartedly respect you for all the efforts you have put till now. But don't waste your time/energy in future for such things. :wave:

We are better than that, aren't we?
Opinions differ. Indisputable fact also can be questioned by opinion. This is inevitable.
Light teeskONdi boss.
Suppose you want to choose the most succesful MD after 1991, do we need a poll for it? idhu fact. But as an IR fan, I can redefine success, and say, Successna enna Oscar award mattumA? Commercial success mattumA? Quality mattum vechu pArthA etc. idhu opinion questioning fact.
nammaLum, pOllE kUdAdhunnu adam pidikka thEvai illai enbadhu en karuththu.
People will always express their opinions - sometimes mutedly, sometimes vocally, sometimes unfairly, sometimes with a mischievous intent.
I understand that for you, Sachin is more important than an idle poll. So, do feel free to keep away from this frivolous exercise. adhula endha thappum illai.
As for the poll, the idea is to provoke discussions. 10 post my daddy strongernu vandhAlum, 2 posts are coming talking about specific matches, instances leading to some memories. andha oru reasonukkAga, I am inclined to continue this exercise.
(The Bevan match LM linked, I remember seeing it from 82/6 to 248/8. Can remember many moments from the match instantly.)

de Silva is a pretty good part-time bowlers. Intelligentelly, tricking the batsmen into a mistake etc. I would say de Silva is on par with Sachin if not an edge better.
With the exception of Vettori, Jayasuriya was the best left arm spinner in cricket. thavakkaLai Adams, Sangadabadhi, Giles all two steps back ya.
Avoid meesic analogies to prevent fossible raNakaLam.
No. I am not against Poll. It is just that when one thing has been decided and moved on and it has been some time since that happened, make a rewind and come back halfway through and question why there was no poll?.
When people can ask why no poll for Tendulkar, I can ask them why didn't you ask that question in the first place?. As simple as that. This is making a mockery out of the entire process that has happened so far. I am not game for such questions/discussions.

I throw a similar question at u.
I have a doubt and I think you waited all this time just to sling mud at Tendulkar as you have time and again done very effectively. Tell me one good reason why I should not ask this question to you.
Feddy, to be fair to MADDY, he asked this question much earlier. It has risen to a crescendo now that's all.
Thats what I mean..If situation requires them(Aravinda/Inzi) to steady the innings - they can do..especially Inzi. The steadying the ship activity would be done in the middle order(no 4 and no 5) itself.There is no requirement of Bevan at 6-ngreen.Quote:

Not enough P_R
when people want a fair process shout it out when it starts and not while its in the middle.
no feddy, i have clearly said its just abt "process" and not abt sridhar or plum and i accepted they didnt have any intentions in selecting sachin unanimously..........if people still want to interpret my questions as personal/integrity etc - i feel this tantamounts to questioning my integrity......Quote:

Feddy, as I recall he had made the point earlier. Not much attention was paid to it because (possibly) most of those in the thread it is a moot point. But he seems to feel strongly about the process. Poll-um vechAchchu.
For the life of me, I can't understand how anyone would prefer someone else other than Sachin for opening in ODIs.
But I'd suggest taking things at face value and moving on. Second guessing intentions etc. never gets anywhere.
why shouldnt we question in the middle - i still dont get the logic......court casesla kooda there is a time frame for appealing a judgement - thats the standard throughout the worldQuote:

To say more eloquently I find the questioning to be odd when they themselves are doing a service. An awkward moment so to say.
Service-A?
Flau, aananda kaNNeer time.
Feddy, I repeat MADDY has been asking the question early. Number 2 slot-aiyE seekiram close paNNittOm avarukku oru idhu.
Feddy, request you to drop the issue. nadandhadhu nadandhu pOchu.
I am also inclined not to take this seriously or second guessing intentions. Bottom line, let's keep the discussions, anecdotes, match recalls, remembrances, nostalgia going...I'd like more of the "When I woke up at 4AM on a margazhi early morning to watch the boxing day test" type of posts...
