Favourite Cricket Picture

Not sure if this means anything, but isn't Tendulkar shorter than that?

I thought of that too but one both Sehwag and tendulkar are more or less same height and two, in this picture the batsman is up in the air (both feet off the ground, almost) and standing erect making him appear taller.

I guess so. The other factor is that Tendulkar uses MRF-I think. As does Brian Lara and Steve Waugh.

Good point.

some of my favourite images....from the 2003 WC final, and also some of andrew symonds, including my favourite shot of all - him raising his bat after his mammoth 143* against pakistan....(also included, images from when their captain got taken out of the attack by the umpires !!)

It could just be that ive had about 4 glasses of wine but that looks like Sehwag to me (Sehwag uses the Britannica (sp?) bats). Not sure though, ill have a look when im in a "better state of mind"

After looking at the photo in a better state of mind, I'm convinced it's Sehwag because:
1) The bat is Britannica when Sachin uses MRF
2) In all Sachin's other pics he has a small Indian flag on his helmet.
(As you can tell it's bugging me)

I could be wrong ....

There's some great pics on here, keep them coming!

I'm sober but I think you may be right. I've gone back to site where I got the photo from and it is captioned as Sachin Tendulkar though I think a mistake has obviously been made.

Great photo though.

You guys are very unfair.

You will judge whether it is Sehwag or Tendulkar from the helmet or the bat but when I said its Sehwag because of the grip (after all Tendulkar could borrow Sehwag's bat or helmet but not his grip !!), you dont give much weightage to that

It isnt fake.. And it isnt Taibu, its David Mutendera...

I personally love this picture.. Javed Miandad and Dennis Lillee. Lillee kicked Javed on the ar$e after I think a botched runout attempt. Miandad responded threateningly with his bat, although nothing really ensued. Except of course Lillee getting suspended for two matches.
