Deleted_User_1 Posted March 29, 2009 Author Posted March 29, 2009 He does it again in the second innings! Chasing a ball outside the off stump when it was needed to hunker down and spend time at the wicket. I guess this test match is gone!

For a legend, he should have avoided that trap given the circumstances! Who will save the match now. Both Wall and SRT are gone.

I guess this test match is gone! Your hope seems to start and end with Tendulkar it seems. Aren't there another 10 players that can do the job? Relax man, Laxman is a terrific bat. Give some credit to the rest of the guys, they are very capable too.

Somehow, I do not have hope that these guys will be able to bat for the rest of the day. I will be thrilled if I am wrong.

Anakin Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 its so frustrating tbh... i dint expect to play such a poor shot.. u know wats coming frm martin.. it doesnt take a genius to figure out wat martin is trying to do.. and he fell into his right nicely... poor n pathetic stuff frm sachin, Take it easy, he played positively the whole time in this match. That was a good ball to be hit but he missed it.
pan_walla Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 God is not a machine. Even machines fail. Give the guy a break.
fineleg Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 ^ should he not spend bit more time at crease on D5 before going for those?
graphic23 Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Nope, he was feeling comfortable out there. Hit a nice four. Positivity sometimes can lead to your downfall. The ball was there to be hit.

pan_walla Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 ^ should he not spend bit more time at crease on D5 before going for those? It's a game of cricket. Not a thesis on hand made precision watch making. Shyte happens.
graphic23 Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Exactly. It was not a reckless shot. The cover drive was on and he went for it. BTW he played more riskier shots in both innings than that one. Yup. Although I think if he went for a square drive, he would've played it a little later, and might not have edged it.
DomainK Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 It happens guys. When his shots come off, they look breathtaking. Some times they dont.
Shehezaada Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 it's good to see him batting like this regardless of everything. He's feeling good and I'm sure he'll come up with a big one in the next game. But really there was no need for the shot. It's not irresponsible, as someone mentioned before, positivity sometimes leads you to failure. The same positivity has lead us to test match victories out of nowhere before
