No he was saying it must be a difficult pitch to bat on as Tendulkar is struggling

Tendulkar is not a T20 material, doen't matter what pitch i am happy that Tendulkar is slowing the things down for Mumbai

I wouldn't say he's struggling. Perhaps overly cautious. He's not struggling though.

 

[King Pietersen]

Me? No, of course I'm not. But in T20 you need a pitch to be somewhat batsman friendly to really smack attack around, and this pitch is clearly a bowler's wicket. There's abit of movement, it's pretty slow and the bounce is quite hard to play. This is not a pitch where someone's going to come out and blast 100 off 40 odd balls.

Tendulkar's striking at over 100 also, you're making out he's batting slowly. If neither he nor Jayasuriya can get going and smack an attack around, then you'd expect most other players would struggle.

Tendulkar is saving his wicket

Weather, time all the reasons for it. Imagaine T20 is happening @ 10 am or 10:30am. T20 is fun to watch when its evening or night

 

[King Pietersen]

Great shot from Sachin, proving that if you give him width he'll put it away. If Sachin manages to get going in these last few overs, then 150 is still on.

 

[aussie_ben91]

Geez, Indian domestic players don't play the pullshot very well. Probably what Raj Jennings was indicating.

 

[piriyanth]

Mumbai is scoring runs faster now.
