Shewag's century was a treat but Sachin so close to world record and missing the Century was so disappointing

QUOTE When India turned around the Kolkata Test against Australia, all praise went to Dravid and Laxman. I don't recollect Steve Waugh and his bowlers being crucified by the media. In this instance, let's give credit where it's due: Kamran Akamal and Abdul Razzaq deserve all the praise. They played superbly, with courage and determination. It was their day in the sun, literally and figuratively! Even Tendulkar's staunchest fans would concede that his innings reeked of selfishness. He as well as the skipper himself, and Laxman, have received flak for slow batting. But, how much of a difference slow batting made is speculative. After all, Pakistan declared their innings. It's not as if India bowled them out and then were left with insufficient time to score the required runs. Bottom line: Two 'bravehearts' thwarted all the efforts of the bowlers. Congrats to the two batsmen, and sympathies for the bowlers Badshahji- u get news on the net - so u percieve things differnetly-we see it live i have seen this man trying to get his colleague run out (time and again) - when his colleague is getting to a landmark. Or He will Take a last ball run for overs and frustrate his non-striker. Talent |

Was he just trying to build a long innings to recover form after the injury lay-off? Also, why did Ganguly and Laxman also slow down the innings? Beat me! ![]() 'humble_rafi' mentioned Dravid being unselfish. Thinking back, Laxman in Kolkata against the Aussies, went for the runs instead of a triple century. If you stop trying to make sense of it all, you'll be less confused. Reality is an illusion.
