Really, something else you need to work on.

Yes, I suppose it is.

GAGF - see if you can work out whether I'm being sarcastic now.

zaheer khan - graeme smith.
tendulkar - warne
left handed batsman - indian bowlers, late 90s - early 00s

Sehwag single-handedly killed Saq Mushtaq's test career.

Not quite right here.

Saqi was playing half fit that game and once he got his fitness he deserved another go another royal **** up by PCB that killed him not Veru.

so did he manage to score run-a-ball against Murali similar to Sidhu hit the **** out of Warne?

Nothing like Sidhu who just faded away, Ponting is still going strong. In ODI's Ponting also does extremely well when Murali is playing. We are lucky ot see such great players in our lifetime.

Sidhu basically did the same thing against Murali too.

Agreed partly, because unlike Warne Murali kept getting him out even after getting pummelled. On a side note, Murali that bowled to Sidhu was much less experienced that Warne that bowled to Sidhu as well. And Murali did not go for run a ball even in scariest of assaults by Sidhu, Azhar and Kapil

Sidhu scored at a SR of 50 in matches involving Warne.

Sidhu scored at a SR of 50 in matches involving Warne.

And he was only playing Warne in those matches. Other bowlers were playing tit-a-tat while Sidhu was batting.

When he scored 6, 0, 0, 34, 1, 13, gone never to be seen again.

Actually my point is if he scored a run a ball off Warne then he must have played at a ridiculously slow rate after Warne before getting out to have his SR drop to half. He never made a hundred when Warne bowled so he must have come out and smacked Warnie for a quick fifty then blocked out 10 or so overs before getting out.

We;ll come back to this discussion when Ponting finishes his career as well.
