'I have seen Murali turn the ball square across him, with no midwicket, enticing him to play against the turn, and I have seen Brian keep driving, flicking and sweeping into that one vacant spot. Doing it once or twice is comprehensible, but to watch him do it for an entire session, it made you raise your eyebrows in amazement and wonder.' ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------ This reminds me of India's tour to Aus in 2004. The entire series Lee bowled in and around off stump to Laxman with without a mid on .laxman kept flicking the ball playing across the line into the gap for boundaries..lee later stated he hoped lax would miss atleast once..coz he would have been plumb in front..Lax never missed that shot the entire series |

Elcaminocapastrino:always fights and triumphs like a god rather than avoiding and surviving like a mere mortal..... HAIL THE KING
two players of recent era of West Indies i love for their confidence of their game, Lara and Ambrose. ekkada evarinaina dhada puttinchagalaru and they dont really care what others think. the world of appearances may or may not be real, or both may and may not be real - or may be indescribable; or may be real and indescribable, or unreal and indescribable; or in the end may be read and unreal and indescribable - its all Syadvada |

"So the question remains: was it really the one technical chink in Brian's armour or was it McGrath's special ability? Murali, wanting an answer, in his own direct and engagingly blunt fashion asked Brian himself when we were having dinner together at Mahaweli Reach in Kandy once. "Brian," Murali said, "why are you getting out all the time to McGrath?" Brian's answer was: "Murali, I have to get out somehow, and if I get out to McGrath, so what, it does not bother me." He simply did not believe there was a problem." Look at Laras response...........dats sheer arrogance man....dat comes with territory of talent.....dats lara....always fights and triumphs like a god rather than avoiding and surviving like a mere mortal..... HAIL THE KING
