I guess making runs in this last game and getting that good feeling back about my batting might be the kick-start for a bit of a Tendulkar-type rebirth if you like. Ricky Ponting looks to revive his batting the way Sachin Tendulkar did after a poor run of form in the mid-2000s
Mar 28, 2011
Ricky, it's time you understood that it is 2010s, and not 2000s... :D
Thankfully, I am six foot six, and I replaced Kane Williamson who, I think, is four foot six. Jacob Oram has a dig at his team-mate while explaining how his spectacular catch of Jacques Kallis at deep midwicket came about
Mar 25, 2011
:X... very bad!!!
I told Gautam, I am not Virender Sehwag, I can't run like that. Yuvraj Singh on five minutes of brainless running which ended in Gautam Gambhir's run-out in the World Cup quarter-final against Australia
Mar 24, 2011
Hmm, i understand why is he so tired of running, off the pitch he 's on the run, since women are chasing him with belans :D
Maybe we've just learned to keep our mouths closed a bit more. Ricky Ponting says the current Australian side are not the sledgers of old
Mar 23, 2011
May be they are chewing the gum more :D
We hope you lose tomorrow, daddy. Then you can come home. Paul Collingwood's daughters made it pretty clear how they would have liked the England-West Indies clash to pan out
Mar 21, 2011
Just wish that the sons and daughters of all Pakistani and Sri Lankan players have said so before the semi final matches :D
Well done, Tony Greig Ian Bishop has a word of appreciation for co-commentator Tony Cozier's skills at flogging cricket merchandise during a telecast
Mar 19, 2011
Sales man of the year??? :P
Don't ask. Very irresponsible shot as captain. On a stage like that. Shahid Afridi can smile about his daft slog after his team-mates completed the victory against Australia in the World Cup
Mar 19, 2011
It has been 21 years since he has been learning and unlearning but not re-learning... :D
I've been saying this for more than 21 years to Afridi. He has to learn. Wasim Akram after Shahid Afridi was dismissed playing a daft slog in the World Cup game against Australia
Mar 19, 2011
It has been 21 years since he has been learning and unlearning but not re-learning. Bechara Wasim Akram :D
I would be so attracted to his persona that I wouldn't know where to bowl...His body-language was just too cool! Shoaib Akhtar explains why bowling to Brian Lara scared him
Mar 19, 2011
Hidden fantasies of a Pakistani fast bowler :P
Following England in this World Cup is a bit like following Newcastle United - you never know what you're going to get. One minute we're beating South Africa, the next we're losing to Ireland and Bangladesh. Graeme Swann sums up England's campaign
Mar 15, 2011
Perhaps English are not happy with ICC's decision of scraping minnows from 2015... :)
It felt like playing football with both hands tied behind my back. Graeme Swann on what it was like bowling with a dew-soaked ball against Bangladesh in Chittagong
Mar 14, 2011
It's time when balls would come with Handkerchiefs drying them...
You don't play for the crowd, you play for the country MS Dhoni holds nothing back in his criticism of India's collapse in the batting Powerplay against South Africa in Nagpur
Mar 12, 2011
The country forgives you, but the crowd never... Remember Eden Gardens on 13th March 1996???
You may put hybrid fuel in the car but the cylinder, the engine, everything, needs to be like that. M S Dhoni's reply to whether India needs a fielding coach
Mar 11, 2011
Very frank... I salute you Mr Dhoni :)
If his batting was as good as Don Bradman's, he couldn't score enough runs to make up for what he costs them with his keeping Ian Chappell's pithy description of Kamran Akmal's glovework
Mar 8, 2011
Akmal is a great wicket keeper. He keeps the wickets of all batsmen... :D
I'm excited about what may be, I will prepare myself to carry bags well and make good drinks, that's about all I can do Dirk Nannes is going to make the most of travelling to India as a standby player in Australia's squad
Mar 7, 2011
Aussies are Honest :)
It's a bit confusing. I don't know, don't understand it much Yuvraj Singh reveals he is human, and doesn't understand the DRS
Mar 7, 2011
Yeah, after understanding so many girls, how could you understand anything else, huh??? :P
I saw only two murders in the theatre, but ended up watching many more during the Ireland-England game Munaf Patel was watching Bollywood movie Saat Khoon Maaf (Forgive seven murders), but left midway to see Kevin O'Brien ambush England
Mar 4, 2011
Good for you, you did that. Watching the remaining 5 would have been more disgusting :)
It would be nice to get me and my brother up there, two very good-looking men. Niall O'Brien doesn't think it would be a bad idea for Indian billboards to feature him and his sibling Kevin
Mar 3, 2011
Thats what, the only avenues to do modelling in India are Bollywood and Cricket :D
I am taking a lottery ticket out this weekend. Shane Warne's feeling lucky after correctly predicting soon after the start of the India-England match that it would end in a tie
Feb 27, 2011
Just hope you had predicted about your personal life Warnie, or rather people around you would have... :P
I could've stopped 'em better with my coat. Geoffrey Boycott doesn't think highly of Kamran Akmal's wicketkeeping efforts during Saturday's World Cup match against Sri Lanka
Feb 27, 2011
:P
At the moment our job is not to build up the Indian players, our job is to beat them. Andrew Strauss focuses on the job at hand after being asked the obligatory question about Sachin Tendulkar at England's pre-match press conference
Feb 26, 2011
Ahh!!! Indians are well built... OK!!!
I want to speak to the general or the brigadier, whoever's in charge, 'cause I'm taking my bloody sandwiches in. Geoff Boycott on being asked to leave his lunch behind by the security at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi
Feb 24, 2011
You want to face the terrorists :)
In 18 years' time when he is giving me grief for not being there for the first six weeks I'll be able to say, 'But I had to go and beat Holland.' Graeme Swann reflects on his swift return to the England squad following the birth of his son Wilfred
Feb 23, 2011
:-)
He just goes for the glory, tries the interceptions, and opens up the defence. He is the worst. Ireland's Niall O'Brien thinks team-mate Andrew White's rugby stinks
Feb 23, 2011
Cricket is much difficult a game than Rugby :)
Anderson... Pietersen... after you, son. David 'Bumble' Lloyd on air describing the missed catch where James Anderson and Kevin Pietersen left a skier to each other
Feb 21, 2011
Nice one :)
I've gotten them all already. I don't see a problem getting them again. All the top guns you can think of, I've got them out. Chris Gayle doesn't see much problem adding to his ODI wicket tally at the World Cup
Feb 20, 2011
Did you break your bat, Chris? :)
Everyone did well, other than Sreesanth. Virender Sehwag's honesty at the presentation was as brutal as his century in the World Cup opener
Feb 19, 2011
Did Sree cry this time??? :D
One other guy won't play. India captain MS Dhoni is momentarily stumped while naming his team after the toss in the opening World Cup game against Bangladesh (the missing player was Ashish Nehra)
Feb 19, 2011
hehehe :P
I told him that he should not cross a few boundaries. If you want to irritate someone that should be the opposition and not your side. MS Dhoni thinks Sreesanth's on-field antics can sometimes distract the wrong set of players
Feb 18, 2011
Why do Indian players have to pay attention to Sree... ? Right Sree? :D
You'll have to play like absolute drongos not to get through to the quarter-finals. No excuse for the main teams not qualifying for the knockouts given the World Cup's format, says Allan Border
Feb 18, 2011
It happened 4 years ago, Ind and Pak had a shameful exit... :D
At the moment they are running singles between them. Both are running half a run. Harsha Bhogle is less than impressed by Virender Sehwag and Virat Kohli's running between the wickets
Feb 13, 2011
Rust on the legs... thats the phrase :D
It's easier to play cricket than clean toilets. Ray Price prefers turning his arm over for Zimbabwe, to what he used to do before becoming an international cricketer
Feb 13, 2011
No comments :D
There may well have been, dare I say it, a kiss on the cheek. Justin Vaughan insists Tim Southee's in-flight entertainment with a female passenger did not involve anything untoward
Feb 9, 2011
God save the cricketer, whoever he is... :)
Should I now give Hayden some money to keep quiet? Harbhajan Singh didn't take too kindly to statements about himself in Matthew Hayden's autobiography
Feb 6, 2011
Hit him Bhajji, hum hai na... :)
Two no-balls should not be given five years' punishment, and I wasn't expecting it Mohammad Amir believes he's been handed a raw deal
Feb 6, 2011
Yes, true, but you know you hail from Pakistan, right??? :D
He is the Obama of cricket. Praveen Kumar holds nothing back when praising his captain MS Dhoni
Feb 1, 2011
Is Obama sooo great??? :D
Nobody walks over me, ever, and no-one will walk over me, ever. Alastair Cook emphasises he is anything but soft
Jan 28, 2011
Hmm, no words :)
