Who is Mr World Cup?

[rodzilla1010]

But you are not really listening to their point of view. You are simply calling their PoV as ridiculous and that it is driven by nationalistic bias.




There is no need for me to support my argument in favor of Tendulkar because IMO he isn't Mr. World Cup, I voted for ViV. Wasim would have been my second Choice, followed by Tendulkar.

Yes i have called thier point of view ridiculous because so far no one really had a convincing argument

Well you didnt say tendulkar either so you know where i am coming from

Lastly, i could have been a little polite i you had chsen wiser words.

And the judgment you are passing by calling me biased is ironic because i could have easily removed tendulkar from the argument by not having him in this list, buti considered his record something to worth reckning

Dont try to act innocent here, I know your kind very well. There is no argument that could convince you because you have already said :-

It will be ridiculous to call somone Mr World Cup when he hasnt won any.

Also that you made an assumption that all the Indians have voted for 'Tendulkar' by making the following statment :-

Tendulkar with 11 votes..well patriotism is driving this poll...

If you cared to read, first two people who voted (and acknowledged) were non-Indians.

Lastly dont worry about being impolite with me, It is expected of you lot sooner or later.

I am bad person i guess, who wanted to talk trash about a player therefore made a thread regarding something he wasn't the best at and later took shot s at people who wrongly voted for him...

You live in the states so i will give you a more relevent example, Derek Jeter is called Mr October, because Yankees won 5 championships in 7 years when he was the captain...and performs exceptionally well once the World series begins

It would be ridiculous to call A-Rod Mr October who has a better record than Jeter but he has never won a championship

You took it far too seriosly.

Didnt he only become captain after they won all those World Series?

 

[rodzilla1010]

I think he became te captain when they won there 3rd one..not sure though...but my argument still stands

 

[Sanz]

It would be ridiculous to put someone like 'A-Rod' to include in the poll for 'Mr. October', if you thought it was just ridiculous to pick him.

I m entitled to my own opinion, but i know i might be wrong or may be not the most popular there fore i put Tendulkar in there, because i thought many would pick him even though i thought it is the wrong option, but i still want to keep it open as an option, so that this thread can represent some opinions that are not exactly reflecting my point of view

If you want opinions then respect it instead of attacking those who pick him.

I didnt attack anyone. yet

Tendulkar

Nonsense!

Batsman A smashes a ball off the middle of the bat and the fieldsman drops it. Other than that, every ball hits the middle

Batsman B plays and misses at 2 balls per over but is never good enough to get an edge.

Both score the same amount of runs

By your criteria, batsman b has played better

Ask anyone that has ever played the game who played the better innings and the answer will always be the same - batsman A

No, it won't.

Where's the fieldsman in question in Exhibit A? Deep-extra-cover? If so, it's a chance and it should be taken.

If Gully, it's not a chance.

 

[Richard]

So are you saying Gooch's 333 and Hutton's 364 aren't great innings because in both cases the opposistion WK dropped them? Its one thing getting a second chance, it is quite another to take advantage of the situation. And if the umpire makes a mistake? if I remember right England thought they had got Lara cheaply early on in his 400*

And they were wrong. He missed it.

Gooch's 333 wasn't anywhere near as good as made-out - he played pretty well for the final 300 or whatever it was - but yes, he owes a hell of a lot to Kiran More.

Never heard of the Hutton example, though...

 

[Dasa]

You did attack people when you called the views of those who voted for Tendulkar 'ridiculous' and suggested the votes only came due to patriotic bias. You've been saying you want to see cricketing arguments for the votes you don't agree with - yet, when someone has provided one you've attacked them.

 

[silentstriker]

Gooch's 333 wasn't anywhere near as good as made-out - he played pretty well for the final 300 or whatever it was:

Haha.

 

[Prince EWS]

Why does there have to be a "Mr.World Cup"?

I agree with Liam - stupid name. Funny thread really.

 

[pup11]

I hope by the next world cup Mr.Cricket would be the undoubted choice as Mr.World Cup.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

I hope by the next world cup Mr.Cricket would be the undoubted choice as Mr.World Cup.

I don't see how any player can rightfully receive this title having played just one tournament.

De Leede imo, 39 and 3 WC's to his name(after the coming WC that is)
