What abt GG's knock?! He took the pressure on from ball 1 with wkts falling around him. No doubt this has been a good knock from Ten but he needs to take Ind past 400, IMO, for his knock to be considered for discussion on this thread! :winky:

Shame on you guys with short memories or who only started wayching cricket in last 3 years. Did you fellas miss the 90s?
Still that does not take away from the fact the VVS scored 3 of the most incredible 2nd inning knocks in the last 3-4 months that India won all in lost causes if one looks at it and as the voting suggests here people were bang on to rate VVS higher than SRT based on what the theme of this thread is. Only a Tendulkar fanatic would understand this as SRT cannot deliver under pressure which is not what is in question here but who over a period of time was better overall under pressure and majority here feel that it is VVS and they have a very strong case and the 69-13 margin testifies that.
What a pressure knock sachin has delivered
Yes that is why he is one of the best batsman ever much like a Lara is or a Ponting is or a Kallis is. And by the way what an effort that was from Kallis his opposite number at No.4 as well to play a lone hand to get SA to 362.

That's just for you to set your own goalposts and so you can label the innings a failure if THE TEAM doesn't get there

Well you can post positive things about sachin. Instead of trolling everthing to do with sachin and i mean trolling everything. Astounded mods tolerate it.

That's what you think. I already said it a good knock like GG's but for that knock to be discussed on "this thread", Tendulkar has to take Ind past 400. It doesn't imply that if Tendulkar doesn't take Ind past 400 then his knock is a failure, just as the 90 odd by GG isn't a failure as well I am getting used to how you guys deduce things so not surprised at your post :P

GGs knock was under pressure. But if he does that for 10 years or so then we chat about it. These things are not based on 1 year. Tendulkar being doing this for 21 years now! Great knock by GG though! Anyway keep trolling on anything and I mean anything to do with sachin

I think you need to take the SRT tainted glasses out for a second and study VVS's career starting with the 281 in Kolkata and see why people feel what they feel about him. The last 3-4 month span where he scripted those incredible knocks when India won 3 Tests(Colombo, Mohali, Durban) is just an icing on the cake. If at all there is someone who suffer from memory lapse it is perhaps you who cannot think beyond SRT. That is the problem here. And that it took you this century from Tendulkar to pop out to make a point shows the desperation.

Sachin scores yet another century on a road like flat track and under no pressure. Laxman folds for 15 runs because he doesn't like to score on flat tracks and without pressure. Honestly, today was one of the hardest days to bat. Steyn was bowling probably one of the best spells of his lifetime. The track was bouncy and the ball was swinging. India would have folded under 150, had it not been for the little master.
