When was the last time SRT hit a six in an ODI, anyone?
just now
:D
I mean before this?

mohali against pak....20 matches ago

That was way back in Nov 2007. That means he didn't hit a six in 2008 in an ODI.  :)

yup....any reasons why you bring it up?
good point from a statistical point of view, nevertheless.

No particular reason to bring it up. After SRT hit that six I was thinking.. and couldn't remember SRT hitting a six in recent time.

mills to Tendulkar, 2 runs, on the middle and leg, worked to left of long leg and Tendulkar pushes hard to come back for the second run. This is called Gaaji in some parts of India.

can somebody please explain to me what on earth the crackinfo commentator is talking about?
Gaaji is used in tamil. The act of batting continuously by pinching singles of the last ball of the over ;)

In the NZ domestic cricket which would interest Indian fans as well, Rahul Dravid is still batting for Canterbury Wizards, is on 85 with 11 fours from 145 balls . Amit Mishra, playing for the opponents Central Stags, has gone wicketless from 21 overs. .

And VVS Laxman fell after scoring 20. Playing in the opposite team - Wellington Firebirds- L Balaji's current figures are 15-4-39-1. No he didn't pick up VVS' wicket. It was M Burns

There is one more apt street cricket term - used in Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada in the South. "Dokku" player. Dokku = Dravid in super Wall mode, Ravi Shastri, Chris Tavare. When a dokku players goes for gaaji, it is time for "Hai Hai;D

still cant understand why we should bat first when rain/dl is in the offing.

anybody throw some light on this

why ? I don't think D/L favors team batting 1st or 2nd. It favors when you have lost less wickets and still have a decent rate going. Even now, we will benefit is for say, 1st innings is abondoned now after 24 overs, NZ will chase ~200-210. It is tough for the team batting 2nd if that innings is constantly disrupted by rain.

only 4 - 6 overs lost and total PP is reduced to 19 overs, So, we will get 4 since 15 is already used up.

And if innings ends here, NZ will get 10 overs of PP - 6, 2, and 2.

Yeah we all know how well he played in WC 2007 ::) against BD and SL easily inarguably the most humiliating moment in Indian One day history and there is no way he should have continued after that. 

happens all the time in cricket. You win some, you lose some. Lost 2 matches in WC2007. Beat the world champions in a best of 3 finals 2-0 in their own backyard

This team won without him 5-0 against England and that is besides the point I am trying to make since it is a given this team will win with or without Tendulkar.  IMO the exit point for all these guys was WC 2007 after the humiliation they brought to themselves and their fans.

No, we don't need Sachin to beat the #7 team in the world. But we will still need him to consistently beat the top sides in the world like Aus and SA.

Being a better runner than SG or RD at this stage of Tendulkar's career is not a reason enough for him to be selected in ODI's.  They had their chance to come big in WC and together laid an egg.  Time for new era in Indian one day era sans SG/SRT/RD.  I am consistently saying that since the WC exit.

And Sachin is consistently proving you wrong since then by winning matches for India. And anyways, he's selected in ODIs because he is performing. PERIOD.

whatever you say, if you know the game is going to be interrupted, it is better to bat second. the only scenario against that assumption is to bat excellently before the rain interruption.

if you think you can perfectly predict an excellent performance before the interruption then you do not hold the opposition in good staid.

may be thats what we are doing. we dont think anything of the kiwis. ;D

sg was dropped unfairly. i think he had another 2 years left in the odi side of things except for his fielding which pulled him down. RD was a little too slow and just did not make the cut i my view.
I do not think SG was dropped unfairly in ODI's and niether was RD and dropping SRT would not have been either after the WC debacle.  All are past their sell by date for them to make any impact on the team results.  WC was a great barometer to make that call.

Quote
SRT is a good fielder, scores runs and has experience.
You got to be kidding me that Tendulkar is a good fielder.  He cannot even throw these days because of a bad shoulder and hence is hiding in the inner circle for most part. As for scoring runs and experience any one who played upwards of 10 years in international cricket and in decent form has that.  It is just not confined to Tendulkar alone and that should not be the reason alone to select a player when team needs and results are taken into consideration.

Yep, the same past sell by date guy won us the CB series, arguably our best toruney win since 1985. But I guess any X, Y, Z could have done that  ::) ::) ::)

Yeah we all know how well he played in WC 2007 ::) against BD and SL easily inarguably the most humiliating moment in Indian One day history and there is no way he should have continued after that. 
Of course he was a failure in WC 2007. Why should that spell the end for a player?
