Sachin will continue to rule Indian cricket andhave his wishes fulfilled till someone actually has the guts to speak the truth to him.Speaking to The Times of India, Tendulkar said, "I've given my heart and my soul for 17 years. No coach had mentioned even in passing that my attitude was not correct. Cricket has been my life for all these years and will always be."
Tendulkar is treated as GOD in India. No Coach will ever have guts to criticise him as it is sure to backfire in a media hyped country as India. Guru Greg has mentioned actual things that happens in the dressing rooms, and it surely will hurt the bullies. The indian team should regroup and start with young bunch of lads (example- B'desh) & the old horses should retire ASAP.
What did he do during the WC? Must have missed this oneSachin will continue to rule Indian cricket andhave his wishes fulfilled till someone actually has the guts to speak the truth to him.
Dont get me wrong, he has done good things almost throughout his career but the point is what he did during the WC is just not acceptable, if the reports are true.
Nothing, which is probably the reason.What did he do during the WC? Must have missed this one
As far as one day cricket is concerned what has he done in calendar years 2006 and 2007 not to deserve a place as a batsman in the side ?What did he do during the WC? Must have missed this one
About what happened at the world cup we still need to know the facts a bit more reliably. If true it is a disgrace. Not new in Indian cricket though.I think the "thing" he's did during the WC is the attitude issues, and 'rebellion' against Dravid/Chappell that he among others were involved in, which is what Geraint was asking about.
TT just gave a smartarse answer![]()
I wasn't questioning, or defending, his place in the team. I read hb's posts to be that tendulkar had breached team disciplineAs far as one day cricket is concerned what has he done in calendar years 2006 and 2007 not to deserve a place as a batsman in the side ?
Its in tests that he has been performing so poorly for a very very long time now.
Thats okay my dear. I wasn't addressing you. Just a general comment. One tends to tag on as 'quote' the last post that one reads.I wasn't questioning, or defending, his place in the team. I read hb's posts to be that tendulkar had breached team discipline
Why not just press the "post reply"?Thats okay my dear. I wasn't addressing you. Just a general comment. One tends to tag on as 'quote' the last post that one reads.![]()
And so he has doneI just can't see how Greg Chappell can continue as coach now, TBH. Even if his results have for the most part been reasonably good.
Sachin Tendulkar said:"Tell me, the world has gone on talking about all this, but has anybody spared a thought for us? Did they try to find out what we have been going through? I am shattered beyond words and I feel helpless. I've never felt so bad in my entire career."
Exactly my thoughts.
SJS continues to amaze me with his very objective assessment of Bhagwan Sri Sachin Tendulkarji Maharaj's performance in ODIs, Here is an eye opener though :-As far as one day cricket is concerned what has he done in calendar years 2006 and 2007 not to deserve a place as a batsman in the side ?
