rkt.india Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 The question we should be asking is, what odds on James Pattinson actually making it though this test series? On day 3 he started at about 150k and ended bowling at 132k no one can bowl 150K throughout the test. Even in second innings he clocked 140+. He bowled 33 overs in the match.
saneindian Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 actually if hes okay with it' date='it may not be a bad idea to send him on A tour to SA in July.would help both him n players playing with him[/quote'] Will be a waste of a spot and someone who needs it more could actually miss out. Better for him to try for a county stint instead as he spends the summer at his UK home. Him applying for a NOC to play county cricket could actually help some of our other guys get a NOC from the idiotic babus at BCCI as well.

saneindian Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Rahane was denied NOC last year. Tabhi to, can you imagine the BCCI babus denying Sachin's request for a NOC? Aur agar Sachin ko NOC diya to baki logon ko bhi dena padega Comeon Sachin, go for that county contract
CoverDrive Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 everyone wants to go out on a high and if he does well in this series it would be a very good opportunity.
Lord Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Will be a waste of a spot and someone who needs it more could actually miss out.

Him applying for a NOC to play county cricket could actually help some of our other guys get a NOC from the idiotic babus at BCCI as well. It'll help him stay in touch in conditions he'll face in December and allow youngsters to learn from him how to play in these conditions,I dont think our A coaches are that good and learning while batting with him is best way to go. County would be good too
Vivek.S.123 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I hope he gets his 16000 runs in this series and then retires in a high. That would be epic :isalute:
kubrickian Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 If he does well in this series, he will definitely play SA series as well. He had said that he will retire when he doesnt enjoy the game and cant contribute. So as long as he is scoring runs, where is the question of retirement ? Indian team really needs someone with his experience in SA because all the rookies in the team will be like deer in headlights when we tour there.
zep1706 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Someone who is about to retire will not be clapping and jumping with joy when his younger team mates were hitting 100s and 200s. Sachin is going no where. Don't be surprised to see him play a couple of months of county cricket. I do hope that he retires from IPl and CLT20 though If he indeed continues he should definitely play county.
Vivek.S.123 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Both Vijay and Sehwag will be out before the team reaches 75. This will happen in every single innings of this series
Marut Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I don't know. But I know India will be 50/2 more often than not.
Vivek.S.123 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I don't know. But I know India will be 50/2 more often than not. THIS :hatsoff:
PBN Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I have a gut feeling Sehwag will click in the next match. :om:
carnish Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Okay let me give you the score card for India's 1st innings at hyderabad Sehwag --- 53 Vijay --- 40 pujara --- 175 sachin --- 19 kohli --- 13 dhoni -- 68 jadeja --- 32 ashwin --- 41 bhajji -- 28 bhuvaneswar -- 10 ishant -- 03 PS: yeh pura post kalpanik hai aur iska wastawikta se koi lena dena nahi hai.
Marut Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 ^^ I hope not. Knowing India, that will guarantee his spot for five years without any regards to his form or abilities to play on certain wickets.
