Its not giantkilling if he can repeat
by Rakesh Narayan on Aug 17, 2007 07:58 PM

Anup should just think he can do it and grow from here and be a consistent challenge. If you can beat 1 ranked player it can be a fluke , but doing it 2 times and playing so hard in the first set against the World no 1 surely indicates this guy has no shortage of talent. Just dont lose your way son and grow into a top notch player someday soon. I hate it when people use any sporting acheivement in other sports to denigrate cricket. Cricket is what NFL is to US or soccer is to UK and Europe, however bad the teams perform it will be the number 1 sport. I think the game is naturally suited to most Indians cos it invovles a lot of thought and skill in addition to the athleticism. But we can always develop other sports to be a close no 2 like baseball and basketball are in the US.
