Haarkarjeetgaye Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 bharat ne is se behatar ODI player abhi tak nahi dekha hai.
kruiser Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I believe MSD is the best wicket keeper batsman in India rt now. But he is like a student who studies on the last day before exam only. Or works only when the deadline is here. I love what he has achieved for India, but I am not sold on this innings. He came in when there was no pressure, and yet he could not even rotate the strike. Any sensible middle order bat will farm the strike and protect the tail - but our Mr cool does not believe in that! All I am saying is that this could have easily backfired if Ishant had failed to keep out the 2 balls or if he had gotten a good delivery in the last over. If I was captain, I would rather reprimand dhoni for messing up a simple chase that needed just intelligent strikes.
Haarkarjeetgaye Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 He is the greatest ODI player India has ever produced. Simple as that. true that. by miles he is
vayuu1 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 But to be honest,it should not have been this close I mean come on 19 of 3 overs,why give strike to sharma at first place.
vvvslaxman Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 All these pollards, sammies, butlers, millers are pretenders. This guy is the real boss.

Like you say any other batsmen wouldbhave finshed this off around the 40th over
Manny_Pacquiao Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 He is the greatest ODI player India has ever produced. Simple as that. if you're gonna go that far, you may as well call him the greatest ODI player in the history of the game. or at least the greatest ODI batsman. big call.
randomGuy Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 if you're gonna go that far, you may as well call him the greatest ODI player in the history of the game. or at least the greatest ODI batsman. big call. In India he is: One of the 2 or 3 greatest ODI batsmen. THE greatest ODI player ever in terms of overall impact. Easily better than Sachin, thats not even a big call, thats obvious.

vvvslaxman Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 He will a whole generation of cricketers who would want to finish like Dhoni.
randomGuy Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Notice him saying at the end after the game - [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y782leKOWKI]pehle unse(SL players) mil lete hain at 3:45 [/ame] He will a whole generation of cricketers who would want to finish like Dhoni. right. inspirational stuff.
Sidhoni Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Check out Dhoni's reaction after the last six. Lifts his hands as if to say "ok, that's that then" :D haha legend :hatsoff: All these pollards' date=' sammies, butlers, millers are pretenders. This guy is the real boss.[/quote'] :hatsoff:
Por Favor Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 He came in when there was no pressure' date= and yet he could not even rotate the strike. MSD usually takes it to the last over but its not fair to blame the guy for yesterday's match.... Raina and Vinay played dumb shots, Bhuvi got a beauty and you cant blame MSD for not rotating the strike as the guy was limping through the innings. MSD is one of the best in rotating strike. :orderorder: Obviously, with wickets falling around him, he did what he does best. Take it to the last over and slaughter the bowler.... :hatsoff:

StriKe Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Notice him saying at the end after the game - pehle unse(SL players) mil lete hain at 3:45 right. inspirational stuff. Thanks for video :icflove: Greatest ODI finisher ever..Take a bow MSD :bow:

Por Favor Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 and whose decision was to play with injured leg ? That is a whole new debate. On hindsight, would you have Mooli or a limping MSD in that situation? I do concede to the fact that MSD should have kept himself out. At the same time, I thanked God that it was MSD out there playing the last over. Like most of his decisions, this one can also be debated but would be futile.
