Guest HariSampath Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 India WILL WIN... jst relax finey and get all the doubts away. Probably Saurav will be a good choice, but even if he gets , say 60 notout, I would also think of Kumble for his following contributions during extremely crucial phases of the game. 1. 4 wkts in first innings . Helped to keep Pakistan down after the early blows by Zaheer. 2. that very crucial innings of 24 that helped us to go from 6-208 to a 45 run lead. Had we folded for even a slim lead to Pakistan, it would have been psychologically boosting for them. The 45 run lead helped us both morally and maybe in the final run count too. 3. 3 wkts in the second inngs, the wkts of Yaser Hamid when they were coasting at 71-0 and we could have been batted out of the game if they got 350; Younis Khan's wkt at 114-1... same reason ; and Butt's wkt at 155-3... this almost sealed pakistan's chances of even setting a 300 target. Most vital breaks at most important moments of the game again. 4. Finally MAGNIFICENT captaincy from day 1 till day 4. Too many instances to write here, but everyone knows all this. My man of the match will be Anil Kumble, Indian captain Link to comment
bharat297 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I think he deserves it ... he has bowled tidily and taken a couple of crucial wickets (Yousuf in first innings, Misbah in 2nd) and played a match-winning (hopefully) knock today. Regardless of his weaknesses and the many critics ... this man is a fighter and is mentally extremely tough. Link to comment

beetle Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Dada deserves it completely... Love the way he is playing these days......answering back his critics with every performance... Nothing out of this world but gritty obstinate refusal to go out without a fight ..... Liked him always....now have respect too.....:hatsoff:. Link to comment
Guest Hiten. Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 now someone thinks that India can win. More surprisingly, OP asking IFF OLD HORSE will be MoM...dayaaammmmmmmm j/k finey..... He is good contender for MoM.... Link to comment
Bumper Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Kumble should bag the MoM. He put Pak on the back foot in the first innings and he brought us back into the game in the 2nd innings. Rest of them played a role in the script, but the script itself was written by Jumbo. Link to comment
Ram Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Kumble it will be. He single-handedly bought and kept us in the match. Link to comment
MundaPakistani Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Has to be Kumble. Link to comment
The Outsider Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Ganguly or Kumble would be the choice. I wouldn't mind either one - both were excellent. Link to comment
Laaloo Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 forget u guys kumble rocks he should be MOM hell give me a lot of points in cricinfo SS u knw my TP Link to comment
ludhianvi Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I reckon Kumble will get it. A plus point for him would be that he is captaining the side as well although Ganguly comes close. His second innings score is very crucial as it was he who scored the bulk of the runs in the partnership with Tendulkar, and did not let he pressure build up. Link to comment
King Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Yup Kumble is the man. He snared 7 wickets and scored crucial 20+ runs in the first inning. There is none more deserving than Kumble. Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Gangulaaay in contention for a MAN OF THE MATCH AWARD !?!?!!!!!!!!!!!! Heaven forbid. The guyinallblue will be devastated...don't worry, i feel your pain, mate. Link to comment
