ludhianvi Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 It was a great knock by Yuvraj. First he took his time to build that partnership with Tendulkar initially, then he upped the temp and scored a century. He just ran out of partners at the end. It was a pity that he got out at the wrong time at the end. Nevertheless, a well played innings :two_thumbs_up:
yoda Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 excellent innings. no chances. well played. too bad no one else played even a half decent innings to support him.
Cricketics Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 yesterday night his knock reminded me of tendulkar of late 90z.. battling alone against the aussie attack.... and a good knock going in vain..
DravidDaBest Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Handled Hogg brilliantly....That makes the knock even more special
fineleg Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Handled Hogg brilliantly....That makes the knock even more special i did not watch this part. did he handle hogg well? Someone early on his innings was saying YS was not reading Hogg well...maybe he grit it out initially, if so kudos to him.
Rahul Khan Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 yaar just now I came across same kinda thread and added my comments...anywayz, I will add here, too. yuvi carried his batting spirit through T20 and banged like anything after a full sensible start...!
Ram Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Someone had pointed this out earlier. Watching Yuvi bat yesterday was reminiscent of seeing Sachin in the 90's. It was a case of Yuvraj + 10 men yesterday Vs Aussies. Its upto the team to utilize this red-hot form of Yuvi to win some matches. The staggering part of Yesterday's innings was he actually wasnt in full flow and seemed to be struggling at many times , yet he could pull out shots that only he can play. The down-on-one-knee six over mid-wicket off Johnson , the six over point of Clarke , were all masterpieces only this artist can conjure up. Yuvraj isnt making mere runs nowadays. His innings are more statements of intent , expressions of talent. I cannot possbly imagine what could be more dumber right now ,than keeping him out of the test side.
yoda Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 I cannot possbly imagine what could be more dumber right now ,than keeping him out of the test side. Including him?
Ram Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Including him? :hysterical::hysterical:...Only you could have come up with such a reaction... :D
Gaurav Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Yeah now he can go off the boil for rest of the series :haha:
Rahul Khan Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Yeah now he can go off the boil for rest of the series :haha: well said...! :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: India may also need to promote Yuvraj Singh up the order, because he is aggressive. Remember, it is aggression that can tease Australia, so why not introduce an aggressive player up the order before it is all too late for Yuvraj Singh. - Rameez Raja I totally agree with Rameez Raja as Yuvi had to build his innings from ruins to stability...why not give him charge of stabilizing the Indian innings...say what!
Yuvraj4Captaincy Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 Yuvi should come in at one down or at worst, 2 down and now dravid and gangs gotta come good as well if India has to win.. and I hope yuvi plays more innings of substance in the series.
