Kudos to Daniel & Permalink for the astounding facts !! Imagine a strike rate of 126 in 80's and Kapil retired a strike rate of 96.64 (if i am not wrong)...while his generation was content with a strike rate of 50 or so....its sad this generation wont even believe the kind of talent Kapil was ...i feel Sehwag has that kind of raw talent minus allround and charisma...but kapil could have achieved more and no wonder he has been truly rewarded with the Indian cricketer of the century which sadly was debated in India but supported by viv richards and even Imran for that matter...speaks volumes !!
