Congratulations Sachin Tendulkar on hundred 100s! [Finally!]

Cant stand this stupid media hype anymore...although I love Sachin...he should get over with it tomorrow. Its just unfair how people diss sachin sometimes due to the media and his fanboys. The man has always been humble,never really talks about records.....Even though he is not scoring 100's..he has been scoring 70's regularly. But its time to get over it..unnecessary media and fanboys hoopla for this record..

That's exactly how it is with every major player / team in most sporting disciplines. Many, many examples of this on this very forum: Afridi, YK, Man Utd, the English football team, etc etc.

Its just natural I think, can't do much about it - other than not being an idiotic fan I guess. :)

You will find hype in all sorts of sports, including Chess - you may have heard of the name, Nigel Short.

Navrocks has a point, the Indian media (and Sachinistas) portray SRT to be bigger than the game, which is woefully inaccurate, disgraceful, disrespectful, and downright ignorant. It's because of this nonsensical type of hype that SRT is often found at the receiving end of the fiercest criticism.

Of course, how can we ever forget how you threw your toys out of the pram when the bulk of PP was rooting for Dravid over SRT during the summer?

The litmus test will be when SRT retires. Will Sachinistas continue to live in the past and cite his records? Time will tell.
 
The hype runs this game.

Without Sachin, Dravid wouldn't be earning what he is earning today. At least every single Indian Cricketer of last 15 years owes a lot to Sachin. Some of the Dravid fans wouldn't even be Cricket fans if it wasn't for SACHIN's heroics in 90s.

Sachin's daily horoscope for tomorrow :|

Taurus - 25th November 2011

You could experience several interruptions to your work this morning. You could be frustrated by someone, or external events might pile up and be thrust upon you. Authorities and red tape may stand between you and the completion of your goals.

This, however, is of short duration. This is not a great time to attempt to get your ideas across to others. You may find yourself feeling blocked and unable to express yourself, particularly in a group situation. Patience--if all your days were the same, you might look for a different job.

Your attention this afternoon may be toward someone that is a bit under the weather. Take the time to visit and forget your own frustrating day--it will mean a great deal to this person. Later this evening, romance is in the air.

So what time does it istart? :ibutt

By the time u get up at 7am, sachin might have scored his ton :))
 
Good Luck to TENDULKAR tomorrow

I hope he gets his 100th 100 against the West Indies. The little master has certainly deserved it.
 
Good Luck to TENDULKAR tomorrow

No.. he did not need any luck.... he needed a flat-pitch and WI type bowling and he got both! :P

Couldn't agree more. He either needed West Indian bowling or Indian bowling to get there.

Tendulker just doesn't have it anymore. He's had so many opportunities to get to this hundred yet has done everything from giving Pakistan 5 chances to get him out in Mohali to struggling against straight balls from Anderson. He may have achieved great things in the past, but he's not the same player anymore.

It's quite apt the minnow basher he has become of late gets his hundred against the minnows.
 
He will definitely get it. Real real real real real real flat flat flat flat track against WI poor poor poor poor bowlers. You can easily play shots through the line with no worry of any lateral movement. It's so easy. There's no pressure on as in the game situation and series situation for Tendulkar, its a flat track and against a poor attack. This is his perfect opportunity to do it and I think he will.

Good luck little man. Little match-loser :D

Not forgetting SRT couldn't survive without the chaperon hand of the BCCI.

I do not believe in luck, you make your own luck, SRT most certainly has, by optimising his chances of scoring a 100 against a minnow team, at home, dead wicket, flat-pitch, in vain.
 
from deep in my heart i hope he gets out with in 5 overs:p and never gets to his 100th ton and gets kicked of from indian team for not performing :P
 
^this is the countless time, we or i in particular have caught you offguard as in what you say and what your signature says. totally paralleled.
 
Another Tendulkar thread by a Non-Indian poster and the usual suspects are going about trolling and bashing ... talk about being obsessive compulsion. lol
 
Why do people wish so much ill for a man who has done nothing except play cricket?? really??

and about flat track..yes it is one...but he has 99 other centuries.. 99 for god sake..and some of them in the worst of pitches against good bowling ...lol at people calling him minnow basher.

Its nonsense arguing anyway...go ahead!!
 
If Sammy is a test bowler i am a monkeys` uncle. Overall Poor bowlers,flat track, great batsman, there is only one outcome.

More often than not..ridiculing sachin fan boys includes making a ridiculous comment on Sachin as well...which only fuels the dicussion. anyway..

I am not saying Tendu was always a minnow basher. But I am sorry, a batsman who has truely still got it would have not let some swing bowling make him look like a rabbit in headlights in England. It's not just in Englnad, he has had a billion opportunities to get there but he hasn't.

It's not a coincidence that Tendu, after all that time he's been on 99, is getting his hundred in circumstances where every Tom, Dick and Harry could score runs. The man isn't the same Tendu of a few years ago and as much as Indian's like to disagree, is clinging on with all his remaining power.
 
So this pitch was created to accommodate Sachin?

Come on man when a poor team like WI can score 590 end of the story ;-)
 
Muahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
 
THANK GOD..i thought now i dont have to watch TV for months.THANK GOD. :sammy
