They need to drop Malik for a proper batsmen.

[Yoda-esque]

Very few

[Muloghonto]

You're counting Bangladesh in major victories?

Err no, the query was Sachin's innings outside home that counted in victories. Obviously, to answer that query successfully the implication is major innings by Sachin in those victories, as the wording clearly states.

[Muloghonto]

Very few

True, but its largely irrelevant. A great player in a crap team gets very few opportunities to contribute towards a victory compared to a mediocre player in a great team. This is a fundamental concept of virtually every team sport.

[Lord]

Yeah' date=' he whines a lot but this is true. Even McCullum had agreed to it. Only the players present in the ground would know how dangerous it was out there.[/quote'] and umpires won't?unko apni jaan nahi pyaari?:cantstop: Barbie was whining as usual

[game_changerr]

World cup to bahana tha,MAQSAD ek team ko nauvi baar harana tha

This is a fundamental concept of virtually every team sport.[/quote'] But no one bothers to remember this for Sachin.....everyone talks about Ponting's match winning innings when he has Hayden, gilchrist, warne and McGrath in his team to ensure the victory. No one factors in the type of crap Sachin had playing with him (match fixers etc)

[Asim]

solid performance from ind so far but they forgetting this:

[Old guy]

This time it's opposite

[Gunner]

The spinners will win them the cup

[King Tendulkar]

And how many match winning innings by any god dammn indian have there been since June 2011 in away test matches? Yes that's right dhoni plonkers. ZERO. Now STFU There are many reasons a player who scores lots of runs in matches is actually not part of a team that wins cos of those runs. Often plonkers its not the fault of the player scoring the runs. I mean look at Kohli in last 2 series away from home, great knocks and lots of runs. Fantastic stuff. Not his fault runs have meant team not won. I mean he has a dumb ass skipper , that's one of reasons why his runs and pujaras have not led to their runs being classed as so called scoring runs in wins!! Surrounded by hand picked trundlers by dhoni, then not going to win any matches despite tons after tons they will score. Poor Sachin superb in 90s scoring runs for fun but surrounded by a lot of hacks which meant often his runs went to waste. But yeah its his fault as should have opened bowling as well, clocked 100mph and took 14 wickets per match as well! O and took all the catches as well!!

[Asim]

Good thing for Pak, they 'd be playing last match of the group... vs WI so they'll have all the equation infront of them (well, if they r not already out by then :D)

[mancalledsting]

hopefully we can get India vs Pak final: Umar Akmal vs Kohli Afridi vs Jadeja Ajmal vs Mishra

[Gunner]

And Inform Gul along with Junaid Khan to.

Not really. You, like most Pakistani fans, are overrating them.

[mancalledsting]

Not really. You' date=' like most Pakistani fans, are overrating them.[/quote'] Gul bowled well today in latter overs and hinted a return to top form- if he gets on top form definitely a match winning bowler for t20- if not the best

[debachat]

Might have to eat my words but Australia may be the weakest team in this format. Bollinger? Hogg? Haddin?Really? I have a feeling they keep their best for tests, second best for one days and for T20 happy to send their grand dads to play. If they win, great. If not, who cares. The fact they gave a scare to Pakistan itself might reveal a thing or two about the two teams.

[Zero_Unit]

fined for telling the truth. I'm not a big fan of english cricket but it was unfair for them loosing like that. 170 was a big total for NZ to chase. Anything could have happened. Poor umpiring.
