Holysmoke Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 :D Holy you are ~24 right? You saw cricket in the 90s? Thank God I started watching ( properly) only from the 2000s. Yeah.. Otherwise you would have been a Sachin bhakt! :omg: I'm 25 btw.
Sooda Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Ha, indeed. I was thinking whether there has been a worse Indian defeat in my memory, then I remembered the 99 tour of Aus and suddenly this is a glorious performance
Sid Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I have memories of watching 1996 Sahara Cup,that was 1st time I watched cricket.Very depressing time it was,but that didnt used to hurt coz I was too young to feel pain of a defeat :D
WC2011INDIA Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Thank god i started watching indian cricket from 2009.... Thank god I started watching indian cricket (properly) from February 2011.......
Cricketics Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 By saying that this felt like in 90s, we are ignoring what Dravid and Laxman did in the first inning and so far on tour. This game is still going on and If I watched the right game, Dravid has been our best bat in this match so far. This didn't feel like in 90s. Neither it will be once this game is over and even if Sachin had reached 100+ or not.
ludhianvi Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Holy got married and has kids? :woot: edit: welcome to the 2000's India 288 Dravid 117 Yuvi 62 Laxman 54 India 129/8 Tendulkar 56 Harbhajan 46

Yoda-esque Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 No kidding..Feels like a blast from the past. All I can remember during the overseas tours was Tendlya batting with More or Kumble. We used to be down to 40/4 or 50/5 in no time. Ah! The good old days of mediocrity. Devang Gandhi,Vikram Rathore,SS Das,Deep Dasgupta...:giggle:
Cricketics Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Translation - 90's were worse. Not always. May be not that much in tests. Mostly in ODI'S. But still once in a while some other dude used to chip in with good decent knocks to fight it out for India. Dravid, Azharuddin, Laxman. I don't want to brainwash the new generation of Indian who just recently started watching cricket by ignoring all others effort in the 90s. YES. We used to rely a lot on Sachin, but every now and then there were lot of other people who used to play special knocks and Tendulkar wasn't just the lone man standing there always. That all said. He was the jewl in the crown for us most of the time.
Pagalpanti Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 This is what the 90's felt like. Kthxbai lol must've been a misery for you guys who witnessed these scenes for over a decade. Used to see India winning/drawing for most of the time. :((
