If we batted like the people we like; we would be playing international cricket!!! lol!!!

The anticipation of him emerging from the pavilion, and his walk from the boundary to the centre, is almost surreal. The sound of a passionate Indian crowd all chanting "Sachin, Sachin" as they wait in anticipation, followed by the enormous roar when he emerges onto the field, is electrifying.

I bat quite similarly to Stuart Broad I feel. Not sure on bowling style becuase no 2 spinners are the same particulrly.

Love to play like Adam Gilchrist or Sanath Jayasuriya.

More of Hand and eye coordination than technique like Sachin, Lara or Ponting.

Guess at the end of the day it's the runs that count and the opposition that remembers (the thrashing)  :))

Chaim theres nothing wrong with "Bein" black. I think hes refering to how lots of asian crickters like to be like sachin!
