Lord Of Cricket

"Pakistan clueless to Dhoni method" -- this is the headline of cricbuzz.com when India won the 3rd ODI @ Lahore defeating Pakistan by 5 wickets. Everyone is praising Dhoni.. Seriously what a knock. He took away the game from Pakistan, 72 runs in a mere 46 deliveries with 13 fours. Even General Musharraf commented on Dhoni's hairstyle. And he got the man of the match award too.
But, I think that the Lord of Cricket, Sachin Tendulkar, was the man behind the india's win. He along with Dravid played those overs when the ball was swinging too much and india was under pressure. Even though they played slowly but they played very safely ensuring that Pakistan couldn't do more damage to India. Even some of the experts rate Sachin's innings as the best they have ever seen.
I personaly lost faith in Sachin recently but after this innings I won't dare to do this again. Long live and play the little master.
A salute to the Lord of Cricket.
