CSK Fan Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Agreed. Win is lot more important than honor board. Again for whom? For fans who can chest thump? After a plyaer retires what do people remember, how many wins he has been a part of? After 20 years? 50 years? It is extremely simplistic and lacking common sense to even claim such a thing. As a human being a personal legacy is important to each and every one. It is coded into our DNA and is part of our evolution One liners like these do not show anything but a basic lack of knowledge of humanity
mishra Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 For you. Keyboard warriors can claim 100 things from the comfort of their home. But any player would love to leave his legacy behind too. That is how human nature works no matter how much you try to deny it or coat it in words When in 40-50 years you are telling your grandchildren, what will sound more impressive, I was part of the winning team (which he may or amy not even believe) or see that name, that's your grandpa's This win is a historic one. I am sure cricket writers will have vocabulary to capture it and tell the story for year to come whether there was some honours board or not. As a parallel If you take "Sir" out of Vivian Richards name do you think it makes a difference to cricket fans?

Yes he might be disappointed to not get 100 but getting 100 at lords is like getting 100 any where else and there is nothing special about it
