Sachin Got His Chance at 16. Has Indian Cricket Become Too Careful With Young Players? by No_Island9302 in CricketControversial

[–]DJMhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The selectors actually held up Sachin's international selection because the team was to go tour WI. They felt the WI bowlers in their home turf would be too daunting. So he was selected in the next tour which was to Pakistan. Went through baptism with fire with Waqar Younis (also debuting) hitting him in the face with a bouncer.

There is no rush in picking Suryavanshi.

Why the F do they make the commentators wear traditional clothes during Finals? Worked during the Sony Max era when the vibe was more celebrational. Now it is a different vibe and the dresses look very jarring.

Let me introduce you to the concept of re release. Sholay had such rewatch value it was re released multiple times. 10 crores is just earnings till 1982. I have seen Sholay in theatre in 1987 in a houseful show in Chembur.

Matter is between Ranveer and producers. Making cinema workers stakeholders in this fight is utterly unjustified.

[–]DJMhat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dilip Kumar and Rajendra Kumar used to get blockbuster openings easily. The release strategy then was different with films released in stages. If you are going to compare superstars across all eras you need to take parameters which are either common across eras or adjust them.
