hi friends.i did like sachin's performance yesterday and still having a hard time believing it.anyway this was one of the matches wher he never looked like getting out.
but there is a slight issue.
critics have a job to do and they might belittle tendulkar's performance and say anyone could have scored a double ton on such a flat track with short boundaries and conveniently forgets that he scored it against the number 3 team.

hi friend,
Whatever record is seen to be impossible to achieve,he makes it possible.
That all i can say.It seems as he is getting older,he becoming more and more
mature.No wonder sir donald bradman saw himself in the way sachin bats.
have a good day.

Well yes, critics will always find some loopholes in a perfect play…as you say its their job. But to fan, the short ground and flat pitch in no way belittles the treat we had…his 200 was not achieved only thru boundaries and sixes…he ran most of them and that also without any runner…tremendous stamina and concentration to bat full 50 overs and like a true champion.

it is unbelievable that someone has accomplished this feat. but it makes it less unbelievable that sachin has got to it since he is the most deserving. if anyone could have scored a double on the ground then who stopped them from scoring it. the ground and pitch was the same if anything batting was easier in the second innings once the dew set in. it was only sachin and the way he played that completely broke the opposition bowlers to the point that they could do nothing but watch the ball disappear to the boundary. 25 fours is a century right there.

NO I DONT THINKTHAT ANYONE COULD SCORE THIS, because many were near to it in the past but no one reached there.
its only meant for sachin to acheive it first, because he is the god of cricket.
many people thought that sewag, dhoni, afridi, smith, gilly, etc will acheive this but was not possible.
you just look on the scores of 175+ in odis, many reached there, even the littile master reached twice (175+) but not got that amazing figure.
because it was not easy even if the pitch is flat, or even if the opposition is weak, what ever it is. SACHIN IS THE REAL HERO TO ACHEIVE IT.
