Now if Dravid is not rotating the strike ( which he was not), Sachin spends a lot more time at the non striker's end. And it is a given that when Sachin in form is spending way too much time away from the strike, he gets twitchy.<br /><br />Thats how he was bogging Sachin down.<br /><br />Cheers,Homerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13949049044524078820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134440631193335724.post-24255121984334042062009-09-11T20:59:27.763+05:302009-09-11T20:59:27.763+05:30Homer

He is free to hit out whenever he gets the strike..it's not like there is a massive score to chase and the asking rate is going up....Meghahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00192011739394095016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134440631193335724.post-58774985711540741332009-09-11T20:40:16.678+05:302009-09-11T20:40:16.678+05:30Anon,
