coffee_rules Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Well Done Dada!!! 500 up for the series. 1000 runs in the calender year. First time in his career. Sachin Tendulkar is yet to get 500 runs in a series in his career. Noe even Ganguly has achieved it. Way to go!!! Link to comment

Tapioca Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 The record for India against Pakistan is probably Sehwag's 544 in 2004/5 (Gavaskar has never made as many and I can't think of anyone else who could have done that). Link to comment

Tapioca Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Now gets 300 Runs for the match ... Well Done Dada Off the top of the head, the Indian record is Gavaskar's 344. Then Laxman 340, Sehwag 309, Dravid 305, Tendulkar 301. Are there any others ? Link to comment
Bumper Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Dada has contributed in every innings of this series. Him & Misbah are the top two contenders for the MoS Link to comment
coffee_rules Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Dada has got 4 wkts as well. He will be the MoS if India wins the series. MuH will be if Pak wins this test. Link to comment
Dirty_South Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Dada has got 4 wkts as well. He will be the MoS if India wins the series. MuH will be if Pak wins this test. No way Pak can win it from here Link to comment

feverpitch Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Why has he become so vocal all of a sudden? just STFU and score those double tons.... What's your problem with a national icon expressing anger about BCCI, the most corrupt institution in India after Parliament? Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 You make a very good point there Tics' date=' he was yoyo'ed in the team. He scored couple of decent 40s but was dropped. I can't remember anyone scoring runs in that test match barring Irfan Pathan but they dropped Ganguly. Ganguly then looked quite composed but wasn't persisted with. Selectors are always of this sort, they stuff up a lot.[/quote'] He was dropped because More and co. wanted Yuvraj to play. Yuvraj was scoring runs back then, so it made sense at the time.

feverpitch Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Now it is debatable which body is more corrupt :D thats true... there is such a lot of overlap Link to comment
Dhondy Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Runs scored under crisis, coming in at the fall of quick wickets in both innings in this Test (44/2 and 26/2) and the second innings of the first (93/3), with India threatening to capsize. As pointed out, second only to Sehwag's 544 in a three Test series in cumulative runs. May cross it- he's still unbeaten. Runs scored both home and away since comeback. Was the highest scorer in SA, the second highest in England (with the best average) and now the highest scorer versus Pakistan. Imagine the accolades if Tendulkar had done that. Incredible man. Awesome courage. Link to comment

SachDan Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 There's no need to pour in these many accolades as he's done it against probably the weakest bowling line up after Ban and Zim... and also under the best batting conditions on the planet right now..both were featherbeds for batters not with standing the position we were at Bangalore...

Excuse me? I just pointed out that he top scored in SA and England. Pray, do read. And Shoaib back in fine fettle today. Not exactly a weak attack. Featherbed ar not, he had the guts to stand up and fight at 61 for 4, guiding his team to 626. Never been done in the history of the game. Link to comment

Dan, You are grossly underestimating Ganguly's achievements this year. Words cannot describe what he had gone through and how he has come back. Link to comment
DesiChap Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Breathtaking batting from dada. He is in the form of his life. If he carries over this to Aus a series win is more than possible. Link to comment
