Old guy Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 He played like this in a test match against us :(( i hate ab cos of that :((
Dravid_TheWall Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 not like this...:wall: not with this authority and clean hitting They can! It was good but Viru and Gayle can do it, reduce good bowlers to nothing. Mahi not in that ruthless form or back in day he could. UV too. Quite a few players man. Even Dada in dreams :cantstop:
bulbul Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 What most admiring is he took single and kept strike from last ball of steyn...
jairamesh Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 People reading too much into this. Small ground, flat pitch, any batsman on his day would have done this Anyone remember the way pollard took apart Victoria in champions league, they had Brett lee, siddle, and Stuart Clarke.

Even Dada in dreams :cantstop: gayle played a maiden to steyn today..:winky: anyway i know but runs was not my point.. the way he played him..steyn was bowling near 150k! and ab still had so much time !:omg:
Andrew Peter Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Very great hitting , considering that he hit them big when they were needed the most . Having said that , for me " Shoaib Akhtars " saamuhik balatkaar by Ross Taylor still remains the top phainty ever for any phast bowler .

Once in a while we have enjoy some innings irrespective of who done that or against whom...
jairamesh Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 If AB plays for saffers, why they choke so much?:hehe:
rkt.india Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 The last thing I wanted to see was Dale steyn go for over 20 runs in an over in any format of the game ABDV, you Monster :(( Dhoni had thrashed Steyn for 24 in one of previous IPl before this.
Old guy Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 If AB plays for saffers' date=' why they choke so much?:hehe:[/quote'] he gets run out very often :dontknow:
vvvslaxman Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 why cant he do that now :(( It was in the first IPL 2008 :cantstop: . Because he lost this aggressive instinct. You need instinct to be aggressive.. but his first instinct inowadays s to not to lose wicket early an attitude suitable for ODIs.When he started his career Dhoni could not be stopped from playing aggressive shots. He has to get that back.
vvvslaxman Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 If AB plays for saffers' date=' why they choke so much?:hehe:[/quote'] Chokes.. like in Semi final against Pakistan, ABDV was like tailender with loads of nerves.

Jersey #10 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 I felt like it should be illegal by law for someone to dispose of Steyn like this. It's almost a sin :haha: It was brutal.
jairamesh Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 if you are in India...plz go to lseep brah... Once in a while we have enjoy some innings irrespective of who done that or against whom... We all enjoyed, but some OTT jacking by some, not least you

Andrew Peter Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Can AB hit six sixes in one over? I think he can and it could be possible in the future. He has already hit 4 Sixes in 4 balls against Aus in a test match .
Old guy Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 I felt like it should be illegal by law for someone to dispose of Steyn like this. It's almost a sin :haha: It was brutal. i agree :((
rkt.india Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 I saw that match live. It was absolute brute force from Dhoni nothing else. He just muscled Steyn's express deliveries. I saw that match live and Steyn was bowling as quick as this. That was just brute power by dhoni.
