gult Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 What a legend.. Saved India from embarrassment time and time again
Crookbond Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 We came to see a great hundred from a great cricketer and so we saw. #lordstest #EngvInd
urbestfriend Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 rong :headshake: http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;filter=advanced;orderby=runs;spanmax2=12+Apr+1971;spanval2=span;template=results;type=batting sent from my laptop using a keyboard :phehehe: What does these stats prove?
urbestfriend Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 nothing much ... except that back in 1971 Eng had top 2 players ... although Sachinism prolly meant in the same lineup. Which two? Yeah, he meant two top run getters in the same team...
Roshanrocks Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Dravid the Legend It was a gritty innings.... what a solid innings under pressure, he tried to waste as many balls as possible too. I wish the other had given him more support. PK helped calm our nerves by his entertaining short innings. We have delyed defeat in this game and we need our batting line up to draw the game when we come out to bat again. P.S BB's stats knowledge is better than CI :ohmy:
The Outsider Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;filter=advanced;orderby=runs;spanmax2=10+Jan+2004;spanval2=span;template=results;type=batting heres one more When Border and Waugh played in the same team, they were not the top two run getters, similarly for Hammond and Cowdrey.
cameron_black Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 congratz dravid! you know, sometimes i tend to put this guy ahead of tendulkar...
Blue Panther Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Good to see dravid in form. I hope he continues for atleast 2 more years.
akshaywekhande Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Wel done Rahul Dravid . . . though it is just a regulation job for him.
NareshK Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I hope the youngsters look up to this man to learn work ethic, concentration, discipline. He rarely gives his wicket away and bowlers have to work hard to get his wicket and if the going gets tough, he hangs in there and fights it out which is an aspect I see more in Australian, English and SA batsmen more than Indians. During his best period, he was averaging close to 58(even better than Sachin) but he is still going great guns. The best performer for India in overseas conditions and also under pressure. :hatsoff:
