Just on the whole specialist keeper vs. batsman-keeper argument, the last two games have been interesting. Obviously, keeping in India for the first time is always going to be tough, but Manou's hardly been flawless, despite being rated as probably the best glovesman in the country, and has let through his fair share of byes and the like. Just highlights to me that, in one dayers at least, a decent keeper who can bat well is much more useful to the team than a good keeper who's an average bat.

LOL! India just became favourites by the bookies.

I find that ridiculous. If I didn't love Sachin so much I'd bet on Australia.

I know it is a different wicket but In perspective, not being able to chase 250 that day looks so bad.

It's not mature, it's just that his shots haven't got him out.

He's not immature when he plays a showt to cow corner, that's what he's good at.

He plays stupid when he tries to hook/pull when he's clearly very bad at it. He's put that **** away this innings, despite the Aussie bowlers trying to tempt him with short stuff.
