Anakin Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Does this mean playing abroad was easy with no pressure, specially when the bowling quality was so much better? Link to comment
goose Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 sarcasm? Tendulkar could easily come out in public and announce his ambition to score 25 away tons before he retires. Lara did something similar to ram home his legacy and announced his goal of finishing with most double-tons. Of course Tendulkar would never stoop to that. Link to comment

DomainK Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Great list there. Tendulkar is a genius who unfortunately is most criticized in his own land. The Aussie media is singing praises of him all the time. Link to comment

Captain of Bhangra Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 take away bangladesh' date=' england, australia - all notorious bunnies for tendulkar; and see how many he REALLY has in away games[/quote'] I'm assuming this is a joke/sarcasm, right?... The funny part is, most people would have given a bit of credibility to that statement if it just said Bangladesh, maybe even Zimbabwe, but it just mentioned a Team that has by far and away been the best in the last decade, and another team that is the most experienced Test nation in the World. If scores against them don't count, then who? More fool me for even typing a response of this length... Link to comment
