Real match winner
by sunilkumar mishra on Apr 02, 2007 04:56 PM   Permalink

Without going into the specifics, he is perhaps the only bowler after famous 70s who could always give the feeling of ripping through the opposition with his most versatile repertoire of bowling varieties and he has been the only match winner for Indian cricket for a very long time. He with his unconventional bowling always induced scare among the opposition to negotiate in both forms of cricket, eventhough of late he has been read much better by many but still remained the most feared opposition individually among the Indian eleven including our more famous batting greats. He was the most potent weapon India had even in the short form of the game for the element of unpredictability and aggression in his attack. It is good to see that he is calling it quits when u r still have few years lef in him even in ODIs. It would be really difficult to find another replacement to fill his void in the short form while every Indian fan would be happy that he is still available to the long form at least for another 2 years if not more. My very rich tributes for his glorious services to Indian cricket in the oneday version. He is living legend of Indian cricket and a real role model for millions of aspirants
