Sehwag is smokin' hot.
Because... that's the whole point he takes his chances and puts off the bowlers from their lines and lengths, so by being so aggressive and hitting anything that's anywhere near his arc he doesn't let the bowlers get into any sort of rhythm, so his aggression certainly helps him.Decent enough to get out Dravid, Sachin, Laxman and Ganguly though.
400 I reckon once you're in.What's considered a good score at Perth batting first up ?
That's not what he was saying, though. He was saying that NZ don't have quality enough bowlers which is rubbish.Because... that's the whole point he takes his chances and puts off the bowlers from their lines and lengths, so by being so aggressive and hitting anything that's anywhere near his arc he doesn't let the bowlers get into any sort of rhythm, so his aggression certainly helps him.
Bill Lawry has really been ****ting me this series. Dravid grinds his way to a hard-fought half century while in awful form, building a great parternship with Laxman, and Lawry slates him saying things like "Laxman's innings has been even more impressive because he's had to put up with Dravid." Then Sehwag plays an awful shot with no foot movement which sees the ball just go past 3rd slip for four, and that's "great stuff from India."
You'd never guess he was the player he was listening to his commentary. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so hypocritical.
And i am saying that when its his day, quality of bowling attack and pitch conditions all go out of the window.That's not what he was saying, though. He was saying that NZ don't have quality enough bowlers which is rubbish.
Completely misses the point. How old are you?I'll admit Vettori and Bond are world-class with Martin not too far behind them. But Mills, Oram, Franklin and Styris? I think not.
Talking 2002 mate. 6 years ago. And you don't have to be world class to be threatening on the wickets they played on in that series.I'll admit Vettori and Bond are world-class with Martin not too far behind them. But Mills, Oram, Franklin and Styris? I think not.
