let's ALWAYS play the natural game...

shared by straight point on Wednesday, December 22, 2010

this seems to be the mantra of sehwags of today's cricketing world...

what is more important...?

always play your natural game or sometimes alter it for your team's cause if situation demands it...

i have tried to 'guest' it at clear cricket... sehwag – natural play vs team cause...

do check it out...

send him to domestic circuit...

shared by straight point on Wednesday, June 09, 2010

seems to be the remedial suggestion that has been given to yuvraj singh these days...

but does this common suggestion works with evey player irrespective of how much international cricket he has played...?

or to be specific will it be worthwhile for yuvraj after playing almost 10 years of international cricket...?

i am really curious to know... what yuvraj can learn in domestic circuit facing dindas... gonis in dead as dodo pitches that he cannot learn while facing steyn, anderson or bollingner at international level...?

rahul speaks his mind...

for the first time since i remember him...

away from the glaring scrutiny of relentless indian media... new zealand seems to have given him much needed space to arrange and organise his thoughts... he seems relaxed at crease... no wonder the runs have started to follow....coz more than the technique... the problems were in his head...

so when he took indirect dig at 'natural players'... i was pleasantly surprised...this is what he said with obvious touch of tantrum...at the close of day 4 play...


I don’t know the meaning of playing your natural game all the time. You have to play according to the situation of the game. That’s what the great players have done over the years.

this is also reminder to players who bat only in one gear...and hide behind the beaten to death formula of 'natural play'...

specially sehwag...

branding him reckless dasher will be doing total injustice to his awesome talent...he has it in him to read the game more effortlessly and swiftly than many...and has shown it in adelaide as well as galle when chips were down...

» introducing 'Che' of indian cricket... @ BCC!
infact he went full one session at adelaide* without scoring a boundary! (can you believe it!) the fact he acknowledged in a cricinfo award function recently almost apologetically...

this shows that if he wants to do it...he can do it...

that's what dravid meant exactly...that one can not play 'natural game' all the time...that sometime giving due respect to match situation won't take away 'glory' from you...

so move over politically correct and serene dravid...i am already liking this new version of dravid... say dravid 1.50...?

...and i hope this version is here to stay...


*correction
thanks tifosi guy for pointing my gaffe on galle...
