Yeah I knew it could happen.

It happend to Tendulkar once, He was facing mcgrath and it was pretty short but didnt get up much and he was given out.

Best Batters in the World in Tests Going by form over the last 2 years or so:

1)Ponting
2)Lara
3)Tendulkar

Tendulkar's Form in the last calendar year has been abysmal, although he seems to be getting in to some form as of late.. So if your going on form from the last 2 years or so, I don't think Tendulkar should be there..

All you hear in cricket discussions is regurgitations from the channel nine commentary team.... well not really, but I hate them so much.


Tony Greig and his deformed teeth.
Mark Taylor, who cannot say Fu-Jit-Su Pla-sma-vis-ion
Ian Healy's jokes are not funny
Ian Chappel complains about everything from the first Aboriginal side that toured England not counted on test numbers, to players playing the reverse sweep and changing their hands over.
Richie Benaud is a legend.
Simon O'Donnell is a good commentator, but they don't give him a chance.

Long live ABC radio commentary. Kerry O'Keefe and Hasha (spelling).(H)

Yeah Hayden has been playing very well so yeah he would probably take my 3rd place over Tendulkar. In the One Dayers Tendulkar has been in very good form though.

Commentators: Simon O'Donnel is ok, but he has the most boring voice in the world..well 2nd..His voice is better than Chappeli's....

I dont think its since the year ended...He was about as unconvincing as possible when he scored his 200...and to me, he is the only player in the world who could have scored an out of form 200 (perhaps Steve Waugh in his prime, as he could grind out an innings from nowhere)...

I think it has been since that innings that he has gained confidence, because that wasnt a stellar 200...

Richie Benauds a bit of a smart ass...I remember he and Mark Taylor were having a little conversation whilst commentating (As they do), and Richie said some word that Mark had obviously never heard before, so Mark asked him to spell it sarcastically and Richie did. Still, a great commentator.

Lol and:

"It just stuck in the Left Duke" "Stuck His Duke out" etc

Duke means hand, Btw.

Also Tendulkar has been in form in the One Dayers for a while. In the World Cup he was very good. He got the most runs in it and also in Indias other matches last year he played well. Its just been the tests he has been out of form in.

If Fidel Edwards can get some control over his deliveries and Jermaine Lawson returns from injury without losing too much pace they should have a terrifying opening duo, both capable of bowling at 150+ km/h. They also need another Chanderpaul - someone who can occupy the crease for long periods and rotate the strike. The have fantastic strokemakers, but you always get the feeling they'll give you a chance at some stage.
