wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 maybe but wkts and runs are more important. captaincy affects those and sachin has had it easy as was hardl,y a captain for long
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Pontin is the most successful Test captain ever and not that I care, but he has won two world cups too + he is a great in the batting department So better Cricketer than Sachin who has always lets face it been interested in Sachin captain and world cup are useless indicators. they are team efforts. sreesanth has reached the pinnacle in all three forms of the game - world t20, world cup and world no 1 in tests. doesn't make him better than waqar or donald who have never been test no 1 or won a world cup.
SachDan Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 ^ While on top? The guy has been a walking wicket overseas for a year and the icing on the cake was his preference of IPL over an away test series. Great selection of dates..:winky: "last two overseas series" wouldn't have had the same punch as "for over a year" eh? more over that also conveniently allowed you to ignore one of the finest test innings in the last few years..seriously you should be the last person here pointing figures at those statsguru specialists.
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 captaincy affects those and sachin has had it easy as was hardl' date='y a captain for long[/quote'] if ponting was such a great captain why did he lose so much after mc warne? (2009 ashes, 2010 ashes, 2008 india, 2010 india, 2009 sa).

I am sorry that he did not provide me with an additional sample of 3 overseas tests because he preferred Neeta Ambani's pallu. Look, it's straightforward - England and Australia tours have been the toughest assignments over the past year and Tendulkar has been a walking wicket in both series. There is simply no getting around it.
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 if ponting was such a great captain why did he lose so much after mc warne? (2009 ashes' date=' 2010 ashes, 2008 india, 2010 india, 2009 sa).[/quote'] Because they were better sides than his:facepalm: Sachin = god to you lot Vic was a far better batsman
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Because they were better sides than his:facepalm: Sachin = god to you lot Vic was a far better batsman and that's why ponting was a successful captain - because his side was better than others not because he was a great captain. And no Vic is not the greatest batsman. Only batsman you can rate above him is Bradman.

It is evident that you never watched Vic play Make Sachin look like a pussy All sides feared Vic he was a destroyer with a bat
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 It is evident that you never watched Vic play Make Sachin look like a pussy All sides feared Vic he was a destroyer with a bat only for a period. faded away a lot. sachin has consistency. 20+ years of consistency.
Sachinism Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 I am sorry that he did not provide me with an additional sample of 3 overseas tests because he preferred Neeta Ambani's pallu.

There is simply no getting around it. Seems like all those debates with BB have finally got to you. Your posts about Tendulkar are getting more and more bitter without having much substance Yeh Tendulkar has been a walking wicket. Please define what the rest of the team were?
wobblydoggy Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 only for a period. faded away a lot. sachin has consistency. 20+ years of consistency. No he was old school, he played for fun. If he had been a pro today he would have been far greater with the team discipline the way it is. I have watched both and if I had to bet my life on one of them, my life would be on Vic

Except Dravid in England, the rest of the team has also been walking wickets.

I have watched both and if I had to bet my life on one of them, my life would be on Vic sucked in new zealand. was decent in india and pak. only thing he did well was maul england (Avgs 60). maybe that's why you rate him so much.
deathmonger Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Except Dravid in England' date=' the rest of the team has also been walking wickets.[/quote'] kohli looked good in both innings.

There is simply no getting around it. He failed in the Perth test but looked to be in superb touch in the 1st 2 tests. he was anything but a walking wicket

There is simply no getting around it. "walking wicket" :hysterical::hysterical: if the leading run scorer of the present series is a walking wicket, I wonder how you rate other batsmen? btw all those who watched Sachin bat (at least in the first two tests) would agree in unison that he was a class apart among Indian batsmen but then again you're that great an expert that you can come up with an even better analysis of the situatiom without even watching a single ball LIVE :giggle:

Highest scorer in the series? Andhon mein kaana raja hona is some achievement?
