Pandora's Box: October 2008

All records are subject to change with TIME
All data is in accordance with date of the PROGRAM by STAR NEWS......

It was an unfair show on Star News on 25th October 2008 at 07:30 PM on show "WAH CRICKET".
It shows that Ricky Ponting challenged Sachin

But for what?
Actually he said that I am eyeing Sachin's Test Matches Centuries Record as he believed that sachin is about 3 years older than him and he has scored 16 Centuries in last 3 years (including current year).
But Star News aired it saying that sachin is over 36 and Ponting is "Barely" 33 years old, and with current rate will surpass Sachin.

But Star News should clarify itself that they did made a big mistake as well as Ponting did on Sachin's Birth date or Star News should confess that they donot spend much time on stats and truth of report, but looking to make eye catchy shows for MONEY.

Here's a look at the PROFILE of Both Players............

Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar
Born: 24 April 1973, Bombay

Ricky Thomas Ponting
Born December 19, 1974, Launceston, Tasmania

So it is clear that Ponting is going to turn 34 very soon in less than a couple of months whereas SACHIN is 35 years and 6 months old.

So how much is the difference?

Then came another shocking report saying PONTING Eyeing "7 Records of SACHIN"

Which are as follows:

1. Most Test Centuries (Sachin-39, Punter-36)
2. Sachin's test fifties (Sachin-50, Punter-40)
3. Most times 1000+ runs scored in ODI Calender Year. (Both 4 times)
4. Most Runs in Tests. (Difference right now is 1701 runs)
5. Most test Centuries against one team(Sachin-8 against Aus, Punter-6 V/S NZ)
But actually sachin has 9 centuries against AUS in TESTS.
AND two small personal records of Sachin which Ponting want to break.

And Star News said that Sachin is on 1st Position and Ponting on 2nd, But actually he is on 6th right now, behind Rahul Dravid according to most runs scored in TESTS.
NOW where is the Record of Most ODI centuries and Runs.
Doesn't anyone want to break that record?

And few small ones which Sachin did and Ponting either behind or equalled Sachin's.

Then they said "KHABARDAAR SACHIN, KYUNKI BAADSHAH KE PEECHEY YUVRAAJ HAIN CRICKET KE".
Now thats Rubbish.
No one can touch the record of most runs in ODI's and Most Centuries in ODI's OF SACHIN.
And still Sachin is going on.
So it seems that Star News just want to make own comparisions but shows them using another person's views.

Hope you people liked this small report.

Please pray to GOD that Sachin plays as long as INDIA Doesnot win WORLD CUP OF 50 overs MATCHES.
And I HOPE that INDIA wins 2011 WORLD CUP going to be held at Indian-Sub-Continent...........................
