Sachin Tendulkar - "Wahab Delivered The Spell Of The World Cup"

[hazharoon]

Wahab Riaz's hostile six-over burst against Australia has been hailed as the spell of the Cricket World Cup by Sachin Tendulkar Sachin Tendulkar has hailed Pakistan paceman Wahab Riaz for producing the standout bowling spell of the Cricket World Cup. In an interview with the International Cricket Council (ICC), India great Tendulkar - an event ambassador for the World Cup - said: "One spell that stands out the most, according to what I saw, is definitely Wahab Riaz's spell. "He didn't pick up many wickets in that spell, but [what] a spell to watch. To me, I think the spell of the tournament. Those kind of performances stay with you forever." Tendulkar highlighted a number of other impressive individual performances during the six-week tournament, reserving praise for the likes of Martin Guptill, Chris Gayle, Trent Boult, Tim Southee, AB de Villiers, Mitchell Starc and Kumar Sangakkara. "We all enjoyed those performances," added the 41-year-old. "Fifteen years down the line you will be talking about these innings and these spells."

Nice article in response to some people on here speaking against Pakistani bowling. Come on lads :) Thank you Tendulkar. If only your fans were as gracious.

Unfair to say Indian fans haven't been gracious. They have this time, for a change.

Sorry but Starc was superior :P

[Tiger80]

Because of Wahab' spell , Pakistan should be declared honorary champions :--D And bangladesh was not defeated by Australia and has a tie , they should be declared super honorary champions :--D:--D

I am referring to the thread 'myth of Pak bowlers'

[Thalaiva]

Tendulkar Hates aussies so much because of the consistent thrashing Indian has got from them lol. Everyone knows starc was way better than Riaz or anyother, why doesn't Tendulkar have the dignity to admit it :giggle:

[Shivaji bhonsle]

I am referring to the thread 'myth of Pak bowlers'

That's nothing to do with Wahab's spell.

[HippoSucks]

I think Tendulkar has forgotten about Starc’s 6-25 or Southee’s 7-33. Wahab bowled brilliantly, but both those spells were much better.

This is why I'm calling out the Indians in that thread that are blind to these facts. Everyone and their mother know Pak has amazing fast bowlers. People that deny it are as idotic as those that compare Shehzad/Akmal with Kohli.

[Marut]

Wahab's one spell does nothing to change the opinion that Pakistani team as a whole is a crap - pathetic batting, pathetic fielding and mediocre bowling. Wahab did not even win that match for Pakistan. mind you. It was just a two over dream spell in the middle of a thrashing, he finished with 2/56.

[zep1706]

I do not agree with him. IMO Southee against England and Starc on various occasions have been better.

[Vilander]

haha its speaking about one spell the highlight of the WC. guys dont be emotional about this. 1, wahab had a great spell of 2-4 overs 2, Pak lost most game pathetically... 3, pak bowlers are not consistently great Wahabi riaz had a great spell through..it was good as Sachin so graciously points out..gace is something that pak people should learn from Sachin. Akthar is typical pak person, first says Sachin is afraid of some turd in pak team then comes to India to suckup and make money.

see this betrays many things 1, you never substantiate with facts 2, that thread is about pak bowlers being called word class always.. and then not being that other than w's in reality. 3, them being arguably better than Indian bowlers does not mean they are always world class. 4, you are a closet paki. :haha:
