ICFtoday Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 not intending to compare veeru to sachin, dravid or ganguly. but am really curious how long would it be, before we have to wait before we get to watch a triple ton (or more) from one of our idols.
Cricketics Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 OUR Opening order is strong.. by the time the holy trinity arrive @ the crease. they have to bat until score about 500 something and then declaration talkz have to be raised. so its hard for them to reach to that figure since not enough time there is...
sm332 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 besides I dont either of the three have that gear to do it to be frank ... you have to bat at least 4 sessions and make meaningful runs in all 4 sessions ... but having said I would love to be proven wrong by all three
ICFtoday Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 i know i am talking rubbish now but i would really like to see one of the three open the batting in tests with sehwag for atleast one series. sometimes desire takes toll over intelligence and this is just one of those moments :)
Gambit Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Gangs came the closest last year at Bangalore. Dravid will take 4 days to make 300 and SRT just doesn't have the stamina these days to do it.
ICFtoday Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 Never gonna happen. Woah....a bit too blunt eh....
Sachinism Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 i doubt any of them would ever score a 300 it would take too long, sachin may be able to do it quick, but i dont think he can bat that long
Ram Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 The closest these guys will ever come to getting a 300 is Ganguly's double against Pakistan.
cochise Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Sachin can do it. He will one of these days. He is close to his best form and has all those years of experience to back it up. Opportunity and the right situation will come along somewhere down the line.
ICFtoday Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 Gangs came the closest last year at Bangalore. Dravid will take 4 days to make 300 and SRT just doesn't have the stamina these days to do it. Ganguly looked like he was close but then so was Sachin against Aus and Bang. As for Dravid, youre right, he is too slow
ICFtoday Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 Its not going to happen...... Lets hope then that Ponting/Pietersen dont either......
Kartikey Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Lets hope then that Ponting/Pietersen dont either...... oh, ya. Ill cry if someone like Punter gets it. But maybe Laxman could score one.
cochise Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 If Laxman got one, it would probably have to be the most beautiful of all triples...
ICFtoday Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 oh' date=' ya. Ill cry if someone like Punter gets it. But maybe Laxman could score one.[/quote'] Do you remember KPs 226 odd against the windies at leeds last summer. that was quite close to veeru's knock today. quite a scary thought man....KP before SRT, SCG or RD......eeeeeeeeeesh
riya Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 The day the ''trinity '' hit a six from the score of 291 .Or it will never happen .Sehwag deserved this ,because he is selfless .

yoda Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 For all the hype, it took tendulkar forever to even get his first double hundred. Ganguly, well, he rode on his 144 forever. Dravid's a tad slow to last upto 300.
