Shoaib Akhtar Vs Sachin Tendulker

Shoaib Akhtar has claimed in his autobiography that legend Sachin Tendulker was afraid of his fast bowling on some occasions. After his statement, so called democratic Indian has adopted stupid behavior against Shoaib. They demonstrated their anger on roads and burnt Shoaib’s  pictures.

One can disagree with Shoaib’s remarks regarding Tendulkar and several other players, but is the behavior of Indians according to the principles. What Indians want? Should every one write only according their wishes?

The same behavior destroyed their team performance in recent days. Before the tour of England BCCI was only focused on showing its power to cricket world by useless opposition of UDRS. So, the players were also realizing themselves superior then the others, therefore, they were not preparing themselves for England tour. Resultantly they loss the matches with huge margins.

Shoaib has written his autobiography. He has written what he saw during his career, so therefore, there is no need for him to ask any one before writing. Cricket fans are best judges. Let them decide true, lie. BCCI has no right to demand from Shoaib to apology Tendulker.

The videos of Tendulkar dismissals against Shoaib are available on net. Every one can watch them and then decide.

No doubt that there are several records on Tenndulkar’s inventory. But clean bold by Shoaib on first bowl, hit by Shoaib on head and got by Shoaib uncomfortably on Short bowls are also on his inventory.  Even one can consider his ever bed performance in Semi Final of World Cup 2011 against Pakistan, where after getting four clean chances he only managed to score 86 runs. 

All-Time Greatest Test Team

ICC has announced the results of polling for ‘All-time Greatest Test Team’. According to these results following players have been included in team:-

Virender Sehwag, Sunil Gavaskar, Donald Bradman, Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara, Kapil Dev, Adam Gilchrist (wicketkeeper), Shane Warne, Wasim Akram, Curtly Ambrose, Glenn McGrath.

4 Indian players are part of this team. The selection of Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tenudulkar was expected, but induction of Sehwag and Kapil Dev is facing strong criticism from allover the world. Amazingly Most wicket Taking bowler in test cricket history Muttiah Muralitharan is not part of this list. This is enough for understanding the selection process. The only reason due to which Morli is not part of this list is because he is not Indian. Kapil Dev is there while Imran Khan and Botham are out. Sehwag is there while Sir Viv Richards is out. It means that because of huge vote bank, Indian players succeeded in making place in this team. Otherwise on merit you cannot exclude Muralitharan, Imran Khan, Viv Richard, Javed Miadad and Waqar Younis from a real great team. These are player who introduced new arts to test cricket. 

Tendulker as Man of the Match in Semi Final – A Dark Spot on His Career

Sachin Tendulker has been declared man of the match in the semi final of ICC world cup 2011. He scored 84 runs. Before the match Pakistani captain stated that he will not allow Tendulker to score century. On his statement India media was very hot and were even going to insult Shahid Afridi. But during the match Pakistani team provided every chance of scoring century to Sachin, but he did not succeed. Sachin played the ball 4 times in the air, but Pakistani fielders refused to catch him. And finally on the 5^th occasion Pakistani skipper Shahid Khan Afridi caught him, but after availing 4 easy chances he just succeeded to score 84 runs.

Although for his 84 runs he was awarded the award of man of the match, but in fact this inning from Sachine Tendulker was not like him. When ever any one will watch the recording of this match in futue and will see Tendulker scoring only 84 runs after 4 dropped catches, he will question the ability of Sachin.

ICC World 2011 – Last Chance for Sachin Tendulkar

Little master Sachin Tendulker has the records of most runs in career, most runs in an innings, most runs in a calendar year,  most Hundreds in career and most fifties in career in ODIs.  All these records show his greatness in the game. He has contributed most of the time in success of Indian team. But when it comes to discussion some experts criticize him and blaming him for playing for only his own records. 

The main reason is that most of the times Tendulker lost his wicket in crucial times. Besides this, Tendulker did not meet the expectation of their fans in World Cup 2003 final. And Australia beat India easily in final game. No doubt India has won most of the game because of his contributions but not yet has won any big ICC tournament of his performance. This will always eclipse his career records.

But he can remove this eclipse by performing well in world cup 2011. This is a last chance for him to contribute in making India World Champion once again. This is also last chance for him to highlight himself in history of world cup, as Inzamam Ul Haq, Lance Klusener, Kapil Dev, Imran Khan Ricky Ponting, Gilchrist, Shane Warne and Wasim Akram did.

Who is Father Mr. Virender Sehwag, Shachin Tendulkar or Shoaib Akhtar

In a TV programme, Indian opening batsman Verindar Sehwag very cheaply said that as Sachin Tendulkar hit a Six to Shoaib Akhtar when he deliver a bouncer to Tenduller, therefore, Tendulker is father (Baap) of Shoiab Akhtar. It is unfortunate that when these Indian appears before the Camera, they  forgot  their place. So, same happened with Sehwag, when he was on the TV screen. He forgot that how much time he and Tendulkar have been dispatched by Shoaib Akhtar to Pavilion. But we have not forgot that moment when Shoiab Akhtar clean bold Tendulkar on a Swinging yarker. So, please watch that moment, especially Indian should watch this Video and then decide that who is BAAP and  Who is BETA.
