SRT is an opening bat to Malinga- different to facing old ball with dew. Sehwag also got out to Malinga in that match- same Sehwag who bashed McGrath and Lee around all over Joburg in 2003 WC final. Only threat that match was Malinga with new ball- Thissara, Kulasekera and Murali/Randhiv (on dew) were just cannon fodder. MSD was just around to take the credit. Story of MSDs careers realy-l Selfless promotion ahead of man of the series Yuvraj who would have picked off the runs anyway. BTW, would India have even got to the final had it not been for SRTs contribution in groups, quarters and semis? agree with gg and kohli part .. but sachin flamy, Switchblade and Real McCoy 3 Link to comment

CSK Fan Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 1 hour ago, Dil Dil India said: I have no idea when you joined this forum, but I have been here for YEARS. Prove your accusations if you have more guts than some of our chokers in WC finals. Now, Dhoni may be the worst player ever - but at least he ensured that little Tendy's dream to finally win a WC for INDIA wouldn't go in vain when the Master Blaster choked again in a WC final. For that alone, Tendu would trade all his tons. Yes and if sachin had not played that innings in semis we would have got the same lota as we got in other world cups after 83. Let's not pretend you are not another cheap troll throwing a fit because there was a dhoni thread made today Once again we have trolls infesting the forum and the troll mod helping drag the forum down. For a few days forum had calmed down with good discussions but once again it will be a troll fest with the troll mod helping drag this forum down Switchblade 1 Link to comment

Everyone knows we won the tourney because of SRT, Yuvi and Zak and final because of GG/Zak. One opportunistic self promotion by a free loader is of little significance- media can pump the guy all they like. 1930s media used to pump Adolf Hitler in Germany...but history remains true judge. And history will define Thala accordingly. Link to comment

Real McCoy Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 But but Statchin has Man of the Match awards more times....in losing causes Rasgulla 1 Link to comment

Easy to perform well when rest of team is already killing it...e.g WC final 2011 after game set up for you on a plate flamy and Rasgulla 2 Link to comment
mancalledsting Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 hope the genius brigade who created this thread realise that whether a test knock becomes is match winning is as much to do with the bowling attack you play with as it is your batting. Must be SRTs fault he played with Agarkar, Prasad and Nehra Rasgulla 1 Link to comment

Easy to perform well when rest of team is already killing it...e.g WC final 2011 after game set up for you on a plate What happened in 2003 WC final then. Indian team had the best batting lineup. Sehwag, Ganguly, and even Dravid played a better innings than Sachin. He hit a four and out. If he had stayed with Sehwag, we had a chance. It shows he's a choker when it mattered the most. Lot of people are questioning Kohli's WC performance and regard Dhawan and Rohit as a clutch player. If that is so, why not question Sachin. Say all you want about 2011 WC but it took a clutch innings from Dhoni to finish it. If it wasnt for Yuvi, Dhoni and Raina, India wouldn't have won the cup. Dhoni is an obviously inferior player to Sachin, but when it comes to pulling the trigger Dhoni is a better matchwinner. You will miss him when hes gone. One can only hope DK, Pant, and Pandya carry his legacy of finishing games. I cannot recall how many times we lost 50-50 matches before Dhoni. We were called always a bridesmaid never the bride for a while. flamy 1 Link to comment

Vijy Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) No indian team has won in Oz. so, by your weird logic, you can say Pant:1 and everyone ATG Indian batsman: 0 (e.g. Gavaskar, Dravid, Sehwag) apart from Kohli and Pujara. Edited January 4, 2019 by Vijy Link to comment

Sachin vs Pak 2003 was not a knockout match. We had already qualified by that stage. 2011 was an ugly innings by everyone. In terms of impact, that match was won because of Sehwag's blistering start, Raina and Harbhajan's clutch finish and all our bowlers contributing to the win. I will say the bowling won us the match 260 was a sh1t score. And btw sachin was dropped 5 times lol Link to comment

Sachin was struggling but intermittently timing very well also, a strange kind of innings. Link to comment
