What's happened to the cricket forums?!

Pro sachin?

Sachin vs Lara was similar to today's Messi vs Ronaldo debate. I was always a bigger fan of the West Indian

It was more the fact that our Indian friends constantly wanted to tell us how Sachin was the greatest and then JT pulled some stats and there was a manhunt on him

Yes I loved both but preferred Lara too

However, these threads were anti-Sachin and during the 2011 World Cup fever

I sent some (admittedly very selective) stats again Tendulkar and I think one thread reached 600 posts in no time.

You summed it up perfectly Kash 👍

Its like wwe,there were plethora of articles posted on daily basis but now only very few are around on daily basis. Quality of cricket has gone down as well leading to lesser viewership as well. Its embarassing to even compare players of 90"s with present ones

I am English and love cricket and my country.

But wow...Those guys were complete passion

Lunch threads!

Some times nostalgia plays a part though. I remember my old man talk about cricket in the 70s and 80s being far superior to the 90s. Cricket is different now. Completely different mentality especially around test cricket. Youngsters developing their game want to score quickly and be part of the shorter forms . No emphasis on batting long and valuing wickets.

Agreed but quality bowlers are very rare compared with 70's, 80's or 90's

Another successful Indian chase
