Saw today's indo-pak match....was almost fuming when dravid dint get the man'o'match ..What the heck's going on?..He, honestly, deserves an award better than that infact..Time n again, of late, hez pulled us out of trouble and infact, won matches....For me, dravid's india's # 1 batsman whatever ppl may say of sachin's genius,laxman's flamboyance etc..
Sachin again fell early in a match we won..I hope those ppl who always say he wins matches and that india collapse after sachin falls will eat humble pie sooner or later..Not that i have any grudge against him..i like his play infact, but a great batsman is 1 who delivers under the most daunting of circumstances..Lara and Steve Waugh, in my opinion are 2 of the best contemporary batsman 'coz they fire in times of need and fire really well..Of corz, tugga has bid farewell..Lara also would follow in mayb and year or two..Sachin still has some time left..Hope he turns in something magical soon..
Another thing today was Inzy's batting...Majestic would b an under-statement...Boy, he smacked 1 six off balaji with such effortless ease, i was left wondering y he's not a much-talked abt batsman..Once he gets settled, he deals only in boundaries..Singles r for lesser men..looks like..when hez batting..
The last thing was that balaji's trade-mark gopal toothpodi smile was missing today for watever reason i dunno..mebbe dada gave him an appraisal !
