    ***Official*** England in India

    My fault - I thought you could read. the small print above the "quote" clearly says that DEAN JONES said that - not me. I do agree with him though.

    Wrong. Well, you should read some of my posts from many series ago...that's of course when you are not trying to be smart putting my posts down with oh-so-clever comments...Any time I raised Tendilkar's problems I practically got assaulted on this board.

    Dean Jones, the former Australian Test batsman turned-commentator: “Steve Waugh has won two World Cups, seven Ashes, 13 World Series. So if you ask me who I prefer, Waugh or Sachin Tendulkar, I would say Waugh,” he says. “What has Sachin won? He came close to winning the World Cup, but...

    "Service of Indian Cricket" - are you nuts. This is professional sport - there is no 'service' to India. Only 'service' to yourself. Wake-up guys - stop living in the 70s.

    Keep waiting. Tendulkar has NEVER delivered under pressure (like Gavaskar, Dravid and Waugh etc.) and, as I have posted for years, is way overrated. It is heresy to say anything against him or some of the other pathetic Indian players (who make money and then stop performing - check it out: it...

    Amazing, insightful and incisive observation by Srinath: "The team that will win this match must get the opposition out twice"..... Wow. What a brilliant commentator. Then he added: "English will be bowling for the first time in this match" Stunning points being made here...

    Must admit - I am 10000% in agreement on this with you. Please God, what have we done to deserve him ?

    I suppose, fundamentally, we agree. On to the cricket. India have a real opening here if they can wrap up the tail by 350 or so...

    Lesser talent with bigger demand will always win out Indeed, and it is....what a travesty.

    ***Official*** England in India

    Yes, and he was right - at that time cricketers made NOTHING and STILL palyed with passion. But only to those who work hard and deserve it. You screw up and out you go. Why do people have to defend mediocrity I have no idea.

    Capitalism, my friend, is fundamentally predictaed on meritocracy. Not inexplicable emotion - which is what India generously has bestowed on it's cricketers. While the 7 unknown gold-medalists in the CommonWealth Games will toil in anonymity. Hurray on the recent decision of the Indian...

    ***Official*** England in India

    Did you ever see the intensity with which Gavaskar, Kapil Dev and Vengsarkar played ? I suppose you were the same people who forgave Parthiv Patel's dropped catches (read: Tests) in Australia. Have you ever seen Australia play ? I guess not...
