We have all seen how sachin has played and broken all records. But is he is a matchwinner. when was the last match he won single handedly for India. I rate saurav a better match winner. Dravid is consistency at its best. He has been the backbone of Indian cricket with no credit being given.

Who said one has to win a match single handedly to be a match winner. Its a shame that people forget the number of victories Sachin has helped India pedal through.

Boss, you can't compare Steve Waugh with anyone else - in pressure situations he is still the best by far - miles ahead of any other batsman!

that was not semi final match. that was either league match or super six match. bcoz semifinal was a low scoring match being tied.
regarding sachin contribution, his 98 against pakistan in last world cup was of same calibre as steve wagh inning.

if ppl forget sachin's match-winning innings then its ppl fault not sachin fault. If any other player plays a single match winning inning in his whole life then ppl remember that, but nobody remember sachin several match winning innings.

ya i completely agree with u..how could people forget when sachin alone chased the target against australia in sarjah..and took india to qualify for the final in the same innings.I agree kapil is a legend but obviosly Sachin is a far better batsman than Kapil.the number of matches sachin won for india are innumerable.when kapil led the team in 1983 it was an overall performance by ecah individual..may be some players were match winner at their day But we expect sachin to deliver in every match. why the hell u forget the runs scored by him in last three cosecutive worldcup..who the hell is able to do it that consistently..i am sure no one? not even mr. kapil dev...so think before what u say against him? one foolish was saying about steve waugh?Have u forgot what steve told about after getting defeated in sarjah?.."he is the player of stature who can win matches single handedly".have u forgot awhat shane and mcgra used to say about sachin?

Hi How can one forget that marvellous 175 of Kapil in 1983 ZBW match .. it was a single-handed effort literally.. Of course, let us not forget that today's demand is a Team-effort.

175 is made when 7 or 8 i think down, it was simply more than moutainpulling effort kapil simply da jawab nahi, we need such a rocking courage in each jawan of us to bring cup again, good luck india
