1) Gilly denied that he had said what was implemented 2) Sachin was cleared of ball tampering charges by ICC and was only penalised for cleaning the ball without permission "Sachin Tendulkar has not been found guilty of ball tampering. The punishment was for removing grass from the ball but not having informed the umpires, which is very different from ball tampering," ICC spokesman Jonathan Hamus said. http://www.rediff.com/cricket/2001/nov/28ten.htm

Madrassah educated folks don't have the ability to comprehend what you are saying. Their abiity to think and act is limited to -- well what their crickters, their High Commissoners, their Administrators level -- which is not saying much.

Always a gentleman, but yes his history ain't crystal clean either.

Khatmal is right, saints need beards to prove their sainthood. Saeed Anwar, Saqlain Mushtaq and Mohd Yousuf qualify.

Seems like a demotion. From God to Saint. While I do get "irritated" at times with this whole thing about Sachin Tendulkar, there will not be finer man in Indian cricket than him both in terms of cricketing achievement and his conduct. I guess being an atheist, I would rather worship him.
