Sachin Tendulkar the Master Blaster of Cricket has again achieved yet another record. He becomes the first man in the history of cricket to reach 2000 runs in World Cup. Sachin reached this feat by scoring 3 consecutive boundaries. Sachin made a quick fire 27 of 22 balls before being caught on the boundary ropes. Pieter Seelaar the bowler was extremely delighted to get Sachin's wicket. India beat Netherland and with this win they are looking in good form and will surely reach the quaterfinals.

Azhar and Sachin controversy

Azhar the former Indian captain made some harsh statements which was over exaggerated by the media. Well when Azhar asked about Sachin he told that he has nothing to say about Sachin. The media then fired at Azhar that he underperformed during Sachin's tenure as Captain of India. This statement made Azhar furious and he lashed at the media saying that you can very well see the records I was the highest run scorer during his captaincy both in ODI and Test.

However Azhar termed that Sachin is not a good captain and did not have the skill of captaincy in him. He also added that he will not change this opinion since this is how he felt and that is how 100 million people in India will think about Sachin.

I would like to add my views about this. Azhar is trying to create unnecessary attention on him now. He knows that in a country like India where Cricket is a religion and Sachin is like GOD it was unnecessary for him to make these statements. Long live Sachin !!!

Azhar better dont bring your ugly politics into cricket !!!!

BCCI snubs Dhoni

India won the practice match against Australia but they lacked the intensity on the field and especially the running between the wickets was horrible. During the post match conference Dhoni said that it was tough for the players to prepare themselves mentally when they knew it was a warm up game, especially with the amount of cricket being played.

BCCI was furious about Dhoni's comment and told that BCCI is not forcing any player to play IPL or Champions League. BCCI spokesman also said that if any one is feeling fatigue they should just inform the team management and rest for that game and not make such loose comments.

Sachin sledging McGrath incident

Sachin Tendulkar has also sledged and it was none other than against the Australian legendary fast bowler McGrath. Sachin reveals that in his life that he has never sledged anyone for the sack of sledging. However Sachin did this once in his lifetime in Kenya Champions Trophy. Sachin also revealed that it was a team ploy since McGrath would be deadly on that wicket which had moisture and dampness.

Sachin before the start of the game told Ganguly that he would do something different to upset the rhythm of Mcgrath. Sachin reminds of the incident that it was overcast condition and Glenn McGrath would have been deadly in that condition. Sachin told Mcgrath that " I will hit you out the ground ". Mcgrath got really angry and started spraying the ball all around and thus his ploy worked in favour of India and ultimately India won the game.

Sachin also said that he was sledged very early in his career by Allan Border. This happened in his first series the ball fell down when Sachin was batting and Sachin was about to take the ball while Allan border shoted from gully don't touch the ball.
