I believe I said it would have to be an opener, the sad thing is it happened at all. Wasn't cricket supposed to be a contest between bat and ball?!?!? That a batsman can score at FOUR runs per over ON HIS OWN says it all, EIGHT runs an over for the whole team - it's just not cricket

and also against Best Bowling attack in world. Really it's not cricket.
 
OMG!! What a POST. Really No ONE thought that any Indian can get it and NO ONE said Sachin could get it. You are Legend. Are you GOD or what? :sarcasm:sarcasm

What's to celebrate? Records tumbling so frequently proves that it's no longer an achievement.

I wish I could remember the stat off the top of my head about Test triples. Sobers' highest Test score stood for 30 or so years then Lara broke it in 94, Hayden broke Lara's and then Lara regained it within 10 years - says it all. Triples are about as hard to score as doubles used to be, pitches are just so flat that batting and bowling averages are artificially inflated by 5-10 runs and there can be no fair comparison. Is Sachin that great or is it the nature of pitches that give a very good but not great batsman the chance to shine? For such a "great", it is surprising Sachin has only 248no as his Test best with only four 200s. Gooch isn't considered a great, but scored only one less 200/300 than Sachin's four in nearly 50 less Tests - playing on flatter wickets helping immensely, when Gooch played the West Indies were difficult to beg runs off and there were no soft bowling attacks. Maybe the sad truth is also that the days of truly great bowlers are long since numbered.
 
Ah, I would love to see Tendulkar get it.

Having read a some of the pages, people feel a more aggressive batsman like Dhoni or Yuvraj would achieve it. I don't agree with this notion. It'd be someone who plays at a decent strike rate of 100 or 110. He doesn't need to be a powerhitter. Someone who just places the ball well, has good timing, would be the most preffered batsman for the task.
I remember saying it sometime back. I am really happy for him!

Sachin - The Master Blaster .:D.
