Ram Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 ... but VVS certainly does not score too much on the styling front. He has just based his head-gear on this; I have never seen a grown-up man wear a polka-dotted skull-cap. :giggle: Link to comment

insane Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 lol, Lexman took the babies scarf and that's why he scored century in the test match no? :hysterical: :hysterical: Link to comment
Mr. Wicket Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 His style with the bat is good enough for me. Wouldn't care even if he blinged himself up like one of those idiots on MTV. Link to comment

zubinpepsi Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 these 2 posts should be moved to here... http://www.indiancricketfans.com/showthread.php?t=149678 Here's the list up to 400, the highest test score...and I couldn't find any innings that had a percentage above 80% in boundaries, only VVS has it higher than 80%...but I was mentally likely candidates calculating at might have missed one...have a look for yourself... http://stats.cricinfo.com/statsguru/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;filter=advanced;orderby=fours;qualmin1=20;qualval1=fours;runsmax1=400;runsval1=runs;template=results;type=batting;view=innings Interesting stat...VVS scored his century with over 80% of his runs in boundaries...the highest percentage of runs in boundaries for a score of up to 150...EVER. As for number of boundaries up to 150, here is the list...if you calculate the runs scored in boundaries over the total runs scored for this list i.e. the percentage of runs in boundaries, VVS tops the list in the innings he just played: http://stats.cricinfo.com/statsguru/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;filter=advanced;orderby=fours;qualmin1=20;qualval1=fours;runsmax1=150;runsval1=runs;template=results;type=batting;view=innings In the 125 list, he tops the list bothways, number of boundaries and percentage: http://stats.cricinfo.com/statsguru/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;filter=advanced;orderby=fours;qualmin1=20;qualval1=fours;runsmax1=125;runsval1=runs;template=results;type=batting;view=innings Man...that was quite an innings if you ask me. There have been so many great batsmen plalying in all kinds of conditions and in all kinds of grounds...but VVS tops the lot. I don't have the stats for higher scores, but I think it is a safe bet that the higher scores will have a lower percentage of boundaries...which would mean that VVS probably has the record for the highest percentage of runs scored in boundaries for a score of a hundred or more ever in the history of test cricket!!! Veritably historic. What a player! Link to comment

zubinpepsi Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 regd the OP, I have a question why do players use that head scarf.. ?? this reminds me of my playing days during my undergrads. when I was in the university, when playing for my department, we had like 3 abdomen gaurds in the kit that is shared by the whole team..... hence we used our kerchiefs when wearing the gaurd.. :hysterical::hysterical:.. yuck.. has anyone experienced this?

Never had that happen, I have these shorts with pockets for the guard/box, pocket for thigh guards (inner and outer) I believe one reason for bandanna is sweat and it could be to keep hair from coming down, though he doesn't have long hair, so that can't really be a problem. When I had longish hair, it was annoying wearing a helmet Link to comment

I think its to prevent hair loss. I think wearing of helmets aggravates hair loss. To prevent that these players wear head scarf. I don't know how much truth is in this but I guess thats why they do it. Notice the players who use it Sehwag, VVS. Though a tad too late I guess.:giggle: Link to comment
