Is that polite?

Question

I have a great respect about Sachin Tendulkar & Rahul Dravid.Both of them are very good batsmen for India from a long time.No doubt about that.

BUT,in the second inning of SL Vs IND test match both of them give 2 very big insideages & didn't polite enogh to go back to the pavilion.IS THAT A POLITE THING TO DO 2 of the most experienced cricketers in the world now?

Tell me your thoughts?

Don't forget both of them play more than 100 test matches & 300 ODI matches.And both of them score more than 10000 runs in both test & ODI matches.Also they were the past captains of a top class cricket team.

Answer 1

I agree with U.

I also noticed that & I am so surprised by the behaviour of a great 2 INDIAN players.

Answer 2

Sweet,thanks for that info dude.Next time an Indian supporter calls Ricky a cheat for not walking i shall mention these 2 great noble men.

But hey not the first time Sachin has not walked though now is it..

Very im-polite on their behalf.

Now do you call that cheating or just standing your ground?

Answer 3

them been nawty boys  hehehe ashish my granson not just dem aussie who cheat

Answer 4

yes it is polite

Answer 5

Perhaps if they were more 'polite' as you term it, and walked every time they nicked it, whether or not the umpire gave them out, then they would not have amassed 10,000 Test runs each.

It is up to the fielding side to appeal for a dismissal, and the umpires to give it. The responsibility for deciding on whether it is out or not does not lie with the batsman.

Answer 6

Sometimes you think luck will favour you. It was a desperate situation, their survival was essential.

Answer 7

Why? You dont have to walk unless the umpires finger goes up.Thats why cricket is as much a game of fortune aswell as skill and statergy.

@ RCB, you say you are suprised at the behavour of 2 Indian greats. What about the behavour of the great Gavaskar at the MCG in 81, refusing to walk on an LBW call then getting his partner to walk of and threating to abandon the match. Talk about taking your bat and ball and going home.

Answer 8

You are right....absolutely right.They both are very good bastman of India...and this is not polite on their part!!!

@Ravi:-I understand that their survival was essential but that doesn't mean that they cheat....If Indians win the match they have to win it with all pride and not like this!!

Answer 9

i can see even some Indians are biased to their stars!!!!

WAKE UP GUYS AND ACCEPT SACHIN AND DRAVID ARE BIG CHEATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Indian team has been booked for offence the more number of times than any!!!!!!!!
