I got permission from the mod to start a new thread with the same poll. I have changed the thread title so nobody shud have any complaints. Now with IPL and the world cup coming close it's important that we have a serious thread on cricket.

I hate to watch but love to play the game. Last time when my friend went crazy over sachin's century I told him "If they play everyday, sooner or later someone will hit a century :|".
Good cricket is dead.

It's been a good summer for King Ponting.


*im.rediff.com/cricket/2010/feb/22ponting.jpg

"Despite losing a number of big-name players in recent years, I believe we played some very good cricket. The problem was we'd either been really good or really ordinary, which cost us the Test series against South Africa [ Images ] in Australia [ Images ] last summer and the Ashes," Ponting wrote in an article for The Australian.

Why do u like tendulkar so much? he proved to ineffective in world cups, is a poor captain, most uncharitable person, reluctant to pay taxes. Whereas steve waugh who has earnings much less than tendlya has done so much charity

There's a saying, if Cricket is a religion, then Tendulkar is God.

If you don't know about his charity, then don't talk. He's a silent crusader.

Ineffecive in World Cups?? WC 2003 was a Tendulkar story, completely. That tax thing was a media bull$hit, lol it was Jaswant Singh who decided to waive custom fees as Tendulkar had equalled Bradman's record. :p

2007 cricket world cup : this was a major flop
2003 cricket world cup leading run scorer: Sachin and India went to Finals.
1999 cricket world cup leading run scorer: not-sachin and India knocked out in second leg
1996 cricket world cup leading run scorer: Sachin and India went to Semis. Sachin made 65 runs and got out when India was as 98 and we all know what happened.


If you noticed the trend, whenever Sachin clicked, India did well in World Cup. Now, just because other teammates were so pathetic and fearful, how can you point the finger towards Sachin.

and if you compare him to Ponting,

he doesn't cheat like Ponting
he doesn't sledge like Ponting
he doesn't disrespect others like Ponting

Have you ever seen Sachin acting in un-gentlemanly behaviour when he was given out incorrectly or when someone made a rash comment on him.

He may not have got India world cup but is one of the very few Gentlemen left in the game today like Laxman and Dravid.

Australia won so many world cups and the reason is simple, they don't lean on others shoulders and this is something that Indian cricket is slowly learning. But not yet. You saw the difference that VVS made to the team (Ind VS SA test series).

Sachin, Dravid, Laxman are living legends of the game. They are bound to have off-days once in a while. Who doesn't? That should not undermine the dearth of talent among these 3 greats.

+1 to desiibond. Sachin is not only a batting maestro, he can also bowl and has taken a lot of wickets and fields well enough.
Heck Sachin gives all in each match he plays. Watched yesterday's match? In spite of his age, he dived and saved a certain boundary and you know what India won by a single run.
I know Sachin bashing has become fashionable among people these days but one who will think straight, it wont be a genius to figure out the greatest batsman in the modern era and also a great role model unlike likes of Ponting.

I've heard these lines many times.. "Sachin is GOD!" ; "He is Sh!t :-x" ; "Too many fu(king ads" ; "He should retire now"... But I know only the first statement is correct!! :D

Moreover I like cricket VERY much.. Just because I don't know 'even a single rule' of football :| #FML #phail
Watched Liverpool vs Manchester United last day..:D 0-0 :( Edit: LOL! it will be City.. :| :D
Oh by the way it was just Sachin jiske vage se we won the last match.. that 4 run save.. #sachingisgod :D

P.S. Edit the Poll?
Q: Sachin is GOD?
Option 1: You doubt? He is GOD!!
Option 2: Agree Option 1! :D

Afridi feels the ball tampering incident was blown out of proportion.

"I think the ball tampering incident was blown out of proportion by some quarters who wanted to damage my reputation and hurt my career. Look at golf super star Tiger Woods. He made a mistake and he apologised to his followers and chapter may shortly be closed"

Check out the ball tampering vid:

Yup, it has been blown out of proportion. Tony Greig had put it spot on by saying, "Most bowlers have indulged in ball-tampering and ball-tampering is an open secret."

And you again see the real Gentleman in Sachin. He walked away himself @ 8:25 when he was out. The Umpire was not declaring him out.

So, "wannabe kirkit phans" should first know their facts. I've got good knowledge about Cricket and I always know what I am talking about.

These matches where sachin is scoring big seem to be fixed. Some rich indian businessmen are involved in this. How come sachin manages to hit so many centuries when he is on the verge of retirement. Clearly something is fishy here. They know only ponting is close to breaking sachin's record so they are trying to widen the gap between them. It's going to be an uphill task for ponting or ne other cricketer to break sachin's records. Can u explain how sachin has been hitting so many centuries lately? It's physically and mentally impossible for ne one to do so. No other cricketer or for that matter ne sportsman till date has achieved so much success. Well I hate to say this but has ne football player achieved as much success in his sport as sachin has. No! coz these cricket matches and players are clearly rigged so as to give sachin the upperhand and maintain his god like status which is good for advertisers and big bookies. Can u tell me why u call him god? What has he done? Has he fought in the Kargil war? Was he one of those commandos who laid down his life during 26/11? Maybe he is a good player (if we rule out the match fixing) but definitely not god.

Hmm, footballer who is as old as Sachin, if not older, and still getting success. Maldini? (retired in his peak at 40) Beckham (34)? Giggs (36)? Scholes (35)? Campbell (35)?

[some might be controversial, but still, they play just like they did when they were in their 20's]

Dont go about with irrelevant tangents about match fixing or heroism. If you dont like him, all you could have said was he got lucky. That would have been ok. But match fixing? Sheeesh . . :|

Arsenal definitely needs such kinda fire-power player :D Download the application form!!

@all: You label craww an illogical person and then labelling him like a terrorist doesnt show how logical you are, does it? His comments are funny so enjoy a good ol' laugh. One thing for sure, all of you including me, have become fans of him and are following him all over this forum :) I wish this forum had some ratings features. I would have definitely repped him up to lighten up this mundane forum.

Any way. Sachin is god not because he possess some magical powers. But because he is an icon not only for Indian Cricketer but also for whole India by seeing which many people recognizes India as a place for talented people.

@all, don't ambush a single person even though he is telling something stupid. We all know that it is BS any way :lol:

These matches where sachin is scoring big seem to be fixed. Some rich indian businessmen are involved in this. How come sachin manages to hit so many centuries when he is on the verge of retirement. Clearly something is fishy here. They know only ponting is close to breaking sachin's record so they are trying to widen the gap between them. It's going to be an uphill task for ponting or ne other cricketer to break sachin's records. Can u explain how sachin has been hitting so many centuries lately? It's physically and mentally impossible for ne one to do so. No other cricketer or for that matter ne sportsman till date has achieved so much success. Well I hate to say this but has ne football player achieved as much success in his sport as sachin has. No! coz these cricket matches and players are clearly rigged so as to give sachin the upperhand and maintain his god like status which is good for advertisers and big bookies. Can u tell me why u call him god? What has he done? Has he fought in the Kargil war? Was he one of those commandos who laid down his life during 26/11? Maybe he is a good player (if we rule out the match fixing) but definitely not god.

Sigh! :evil:
Just made a definition of sachin last day.. tweeted.. think I can post it here too.. :)

S.A.C.H.I.N. -- S for Superb! A for Ace of Cricket! C for Conundrum for Bowlers! H for Hero! I for Invincible! N for Nation's Pride!

Back to the topic.

I am feeling lucky. Lucky that I saw the GOD of cricket get to double century in ODIs, a feat that was never before achieved till now. Never by Lara, never by Ponting and never by individuals named azarhuddin and azarrhuddin.
We are lucky that we are born in the period when Sachin plays.. ;)

Sachin, Beckham, Schumacher, Federer. Legends in the same class in their sports all in the past (and present) decade.

I wonder what will we tell to our kids about them (how can you describe a glorious cover drive, or that goal from the halfway-line or a shot between the legs with a tennis racket?)

Splendid I must say. I think he'll get knighted by the time he retires, plus an honour in the govt. civilian awards too.

Thats why he is a living God bewakuf.

do u know the difference between azarhuddin, jadeja and sachin? jadeja and azarrhuddin were not so lucky.

Everyone knows what is the difference and why there career ended soon.


Honestly I don't bet on cricket. If I did, u know damn sure who I'd bet on even though i don't like him, coz only the opposite team can be rigged and not the indian team. The reason is the indian team makes far more money from advertising than from betting money. I would just ask u to think rationally for a sec. Is it possible for ne cricketer or for that matter ne sports person to break so many world records in such a short span of time and also when he/she is so close to retirement? Maybe sachin himself doesn't realize the fact that the entire opposition team is under performing so as to give him enuf opportunities to fill his coffers with world records. I think some big bookies or jingoistic businessmen are involved in this.

Test cricket will die if it doesn't go day-night: Modi
​


Twenty20 will surpass all other formats of the game and Test cricket will simply disappear if it doesn't go day-night, predicted Indian Premier League commissioner Lalit Modi.

Modi, the mastermind behind the cash-awash IPL and a relentless champion of the Twenty20 format, has no doubt whatsoever that cricket's shortest format will rule the roost, overshadowing both Test and ODI cricket.

"Twenty20 will become the dominant format, without doubt," Modi predicted.

"It lasts only three hours and people don't have time any more to sit all day watching cricket. We're competing with football and other sports and I think three hours is a good time limit to help us expand the market. We are definitely bringing new consumers to cricket," the IPL chief told The Guardian.

According to him, Test cricket's biggest problem is its duration and the only way out is a flood-lit culture.

"I am a great supporter of Test cricket. People say I'm not but I also run the marketing department of the BCCI and Test cricket is extremely important to us. All I am trying to do is remind people that we live in a modern age and Test cricket has a big problem: it is played in the daytime when most people are working," Modi explained.

"We should be embracing every opportunity for getting viewers into watching Tests and the most effective way is making it a day-night game. If you take it to day-night, then people can watch it on TV when they get home from work -- or they can go to the stadium," he elaborated.

Asked if that means it would be either floodlight or death for Test cricket, Modi said, "Yes, because the broadcaster won't be interested. Whether we like it or not, broadcasting determines whether a game survives. Without broadcasters you don't have money to pay players or keep the sport alive.

"The five-day game should still be the pinnacle and the ultimate test of skills. You don't need to fiddle with the format at this stage. All you need do is change the timing. If we went day-night then we would see a real resurgence in the ratings. Look at Twenty20. It has gone to night cricket and the viewership has exploded," Modi argued.
