All over for Mumbai

Recommended Posts

If Mumbai is booted out, it seems quite ironic that the teams captained by the fab 4 are out of the tournament. It is an indication of what would transpire in the next year or so. They will be water under the bridge, history and it brings in a new era of players and a new era of cricket in India.

The Mumbai crowd has lost a lot of its respect, to be honest. Yuvraj was complaining how the Wankhade crowd was jeering at Indian players, just coz they were playing for Punjab. Of course, that very same crowd has done the unthinkable in the past : Boo even Sachin. So, its no surprises there.

"unthinkable", here we go again with the "cannot be touched", "cannot be booed", "the Supreme", "the Greatest who is beyond booing"... SRT is a batsman and the crowd felt he didnt perform well, and they booed. Whats the big deal? When the player can receive adulation and non-stop clapping and applause when he does well, whats the big deal if he got booed when the crowd felt he let them down!?

15 years of superb play, and one bad season (he had a bad season in 2005 summer (right? against England I believe). He scored 1 off 21 balls and got out. One bad innings and you boo the very man who has brought so much recognition to Indian cricket and is the second greatest batsman ever in the history of cricket. It is shameful really.

Let's see if any of the new hot shots can ever touch the contribution of these 4 guys. I can only see Rohit as someone who is even remotely in the class of these 4.

These 4 seniors are NO great shakes in the era of T20...their times are behind them, and they did well in tests , they are test players and even then their days are almost over, with the exception of Sachin. It is the "new gen" led by Dhoni who has been winning huge tournaments like T20WC, CB series etc...and the next few years are going to be the Dhoni Era in Indian cricket...like it or not, you will see it....it has already begun and going on for the world to see, and will continue for years

Whenever anyone complains about Sachin being booed, remember it is these same fans who made him a demi god and a millionaire, so they have a right to boo
