Me tooI always freak out that the ball will hit the fielder whenever I see a fielder throw it up in the air after taking a catch
I've hit a batsman. Had just been taken off after bowling a trash spell, took one at long on and just launched it in towards the square.... *clunk*I always freak out that the ball will hit the fielder whenever I see a fielder throw it up in the air after taking a catch
Yea all true. I mentioned the match, since its the closest thing to Tendy facing two all-time great quicks @ their peaks.I saw that match. It was the Diana memorial exhibition ODI match. McGrath, Donald and Srinath were bowling to Tendulkar. All of them had pretty decent spells. None of them were mauled as badly as that 1-minute video clip (they cut and pasted a couple of boundaries) suggests. Both Donald and McGrath were actually hit by Aravinda De Silva. Donald's first spell (mainly to Tendulkar) was 6 overs and 17 runs and McGrath first spell was 6 overs and 21 runs, and Srinath's was 6 overs and 23 runs. The bowler that was massacred by Tendulkar in that match was Aamir Sohail whose 2 overs cost nearly 40 runs. Kumble was also spanked by Tendulkar in that match. The contest became meaningless after Aamir Sohail's 2 overs. I am certain there should be far better examples to show Tendulkar's capability against great pace attacks than this exhibition ODI match!
Maybe, I reckon the tour to SA in 96 was good example too.Yea all true. I mentioned the match, since its the closest thing to Tendy facing two all-time great quicks @ their peaks.
Ye that too.Maybe, I reckon the tour to SA in 96 was good example too.

Seen it a while ago. That is my favorite knock of all time I have ever seen. That 6 he got @ 2:00 is so orgasmic!!! You can just put it on repeat over and over again.
