Ankit_sharma03 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Ok lets not turn this into dhoni vs sachin debate Just found this video, i didnt see this before......so sharing it. One of the greatest batsman of world being annoyed by this kind of bowling LORD_analyst, Gollum and Rasgulla 3 Link to comment
Gollum Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Maybe he had a real issue against this sort of lollypop slow medium bowling, have also seen him struggle against Gavin Larsen in NZ. In recent times in the 2011 MCG test he scored a sparkling 70 odd but looked most tentative against Michael Hussey late in the day...even Aussie commentators mentioned that. I reckon some of the women bowlers like Perry, Schutt, Jhulan, Brunt, Shrubsole etc would have caused more difficulties to the maestro than a few male greats of fast bowling. Glad we never found out unlike Lara fans . Our 90s trundlers and Vinay/Unadkat/Abhimanyu Mithun would have had a blast bowling to him in the nets however . raki05 1 Link to comment
rageaddict Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) That Last dismissal was heartbreaking, India was cruising along towards an unlikely victory when Hansie Bhai again spoiled the party for India. Kya smart jageh pe fielder khada karke accurate line pe bowl dala. Rest of the batsmen collapsed like a pack of cards after that dismissal. Edited June 4, 2018 by rageaddict Link to comment

Jimmy Cliff Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 He's said to have hated facing Cronje, Nash and Razzaq in his prime. In this video, the last 2 dismissals are the ones that cost us the most - the final of the tri-series in 1997 when SRT and Dravid were going medieval on the SA bowlers and the other being the 2nd innings of the Mumbai Test in 2000 (incidentally one of SRT's great all-round Test performances where he scored 97 in a Test where no one else went past 50 and also picked up 3/10 with the ball). raki05, Gollum and velu 3 Link to comment

At best he had a fair bit of success against SRT during 04-06 which is when every tom dick and harry were fancying their chances against him. Until '03, it was dead even between the two.

Number Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Cronje was a actually a decent bowler imo. Didn't bowl much as SA had a great pace attack and plenty of all rounders. Link to comment

Mcgrath did have an edge on most batsman , the guy was the best Edited June 5, 2018 by Ankit_sharma03 Garuda and Gollum 2 Link to comment

Mcgrath did have an edge on most batsman , the guy was the best Post the 99 WC (and until the 03 WC), they faced off in 2 Test series where they both played the waiting game against each other and were successful in their own way. In non ICC ODIs, McGrath got the better of him in AUS while SRT had the upper hand in India. In the ICC KO QF in Nairobi, SRT dominated McGrath big-time. Even in the 2003 WC group game, SRT held his own while the rest of the line-up crumbled. The failure in the WC final was down to the scoreboard pressure of chasing 360 more than anything. It was only during the 04-06 phase when SRT actually struggled consistently against McGrath (mostly in ODIs in '06). As good as McGrath was, his so called edge over the best batsmen of his era tends to get over-rated. Both Lara and SRT were fine against him for the most part. As were guys like Anwar, Sehwag, KP and Laxman( at least in Tests anyway). IMO Donald had far more success against Lara/SRT in their prime compared to McGrath. raki05, Garuda and Switchblade 1 2 Link to comment
velu Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 sachin has weakness against bowlers who can bowl inswing and outswing without any noticable difference in their bowling action.. nash and razaaq were goode examples Turning_track 1 Link to comment

He is only human. But what is disappointing is his refusal to acknowledge that Mcgrath had the wood over him. If he was honest, he would have said Mcgrath is the best bowler he struggled against not Cronje. The first ball in the clip is from the 99 wc where it destroyed the "sachin is god" in me. Its for the best that Sachin fans need to accept it. I doubt it though. Waiting for butthurt personal comments attacking your post . Be brave friend Link to comment
