God of Cricket shines yet another time… but…

History repeated itself. After a crackling performance, Sachin had set the foundations for a momentous victory for India… But… as soon as he got out, the rest of the cricketers fell like a pack of cards and we lost by a very thin margin. The worst part was the run out of Praveen Kumar when we had 5 runs to make out of 2 balls!!

Nonetheless, it was really sad to lose! Noobie went to bed with a very heavy heart and a disgust “Why cudnt have Sachin stayed a little longer”!!! Despite my dislike, I felt bad at the loss too! :(

    buhu subuk subuk!!! Why do we lose such tight matches :(

    I completely agree with Noobie ..

    Sachin had created the foundation and then he had to finish it .. he has never become a finisher all his life time like his counter part Mr. Ponting ..

    I dont remember Sachin hitting a winning run for India .. He always leaves the boat midway after rescuing it from the storm .. But he never understood that to get the boat to the shore is more important than rescuing it ..

    I m too very heart-broken and sad .. I thought Sachin will score 200 and will break the record of Saeed Anwar .. But thenI realized it’s Sachin ..

      Thats being unfair to this guy. Just because he gets the boat out of the storm, doesnt mean he has to take it across!! It is a TEAM EFFORT, damn it! Not a one-man army!!

        We love India and Sachin so much that we just cant digest our defeat nor we can hear any words against Sachin ..

        But I hv to call a spade a spade .. Sachin has never become a finisher all his life and that has cost us many games ..

        But all said and done, without a slightest doubt – Sachin is GOD .. I can kill for him or even can get killed for him !! .. Just love him from the deepest bottom of my heart ..

          Yes, and it is so not fair to the person who brought us in the winning position in the first place!! Brought it down to a point where actyally 19 were required of 17 balls. If the “young guns” (gah….) can’t score those 19 runs off 17 balls against a “depleted” bowling attack, they simply do not deserve to wear the national colors..

    Yeah ..Wit Sachin’s spectacular score the team should have made the win possible .. He gave his lion’s share .. The team shld have made it .. I do not feel bad for Sachin havin been out after his incredible score ..The others , well should have given made Sachi’s score more meaningful

    I was unexpected :(

    I sat down there the whole match… saw the historic innings of Sachin… it could be a great history if he would stay there and made India to win. the continuous drop of wickets made me so sad…

    Hope for the best in future….
