STANDARD RESPONSE

Most cricketers, who are not comfortable in conversing in English, go prepare for some standard questions that are asked to them when commentators chat with them during the awards ceremony. Inzamam was once asked a different question after Pakistan won the match, for which he was not prepared. He always used his standard response to the first question after winning 

 

But this time.....
After Winning the Match

Tony Greg : So Inzi, that's fantastic, your wife is pregnant for the second time and u must be happy!

Inzamam : Thanks Tony…! All credit goes to the boys. Everyone work hard for it, especially Afridi. It was tight situation when he went in. Also Bob Woolmer was keeping close watch on progress and giving instructions. It's all team effort. Insha Allah, we all will work together as a team, put in big effort and deliver good result all the time and will be able to REPEAT the same result.


Tony fainted!!!!!!

Comments on Sachin by other players

"He is 99.5 percent perfect. I'd pay to see him" - Viv Richards.


"Don't bowl him bad balls, he hits the good ones for fours" - Michael Kasprowicz.


"It's scary, where the hell do we bowl to him" -Allan Border.


"There is no shame being beaten by such a great player. We didn't lose to Team India. We Lost to Sachin Tendulkar" -Steve Waugh.


"If I've to bowl to Sachin, I'll bowl with my helmet on. He hits the ball so hard" - Dennis Lillee.


"I'd like to see him go out and bat one day with a stump. I tell you he'd do okay" -Greg Chappell.


"Cricketers like Sachin come once in a lifetime and I am privileged he played in my time" - Wasim Akram.


"The pressure on me is nothing as compared to Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin, like God, must never fail. The crowd always expects him to succeed and it is too much pressure on him" -Mark Waugh.


"Everybody gets 15 minutes of fame. But if there's one person I've admired over a 15-year of period, it's definitely Sachin." - Brain Lara


"I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player" -Shane Warne.


"I saw him playing on television and was struck by his technique, so I asked my wife to come look at him. Now I never saw myself play, but I feel that this player is playing much the same as I used to play, and she looked at him on Television and said yes, there is a similarity between the two... his compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel" -Sir Donald Bradman.


"In an over I can bowl six different balls. But then Sachin looks at me with a sort of gentle arrogance down the pitch as if to say 'Can you bowl me another one?'" - Adam Hollioke


"You might pitch a ball on the off stump and think you have bowled a good ball and he walks across and hits it for two behind midwicket. His bat looks so heavy but he just waves it around like it's a toothpick? "-Brett Lee


"You have to decide for yourself whether you're bowling well or not. He's going to hit you for fours and sixes anyway?" -Micheal Kasprowicz


"Technically, you can't fault Sachin. Seam or spin, fast or slow ? Nothing is a problem?" -Geoffrey Boycott.


"His life seems to be stillness in a frantic world... [When he goes out to bat], it is beyond chaos - it is a frantic appeal by a nation to one man. The people see him as a God... ?" Mathew Hayden, on Sachin Tendulkar.


"The fact of the matter is that India still needs Sachin in a big way. All this talk of the youngsters taking over is very foolish. The reason why Tendulkar is so important for the team is because of his ability to inspire others and make them perform under pressure" - Some day on "Times of India".


And, this is the best!!! (A True fan of Sachin carried this Banner in a match)

"Commit all your crimes when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed because even the Lord is busy watching him batting!!!."
