The most salient feature of that innings was a simple catch given to Abdur Razzaq on 47.

A stupendous 47 it may have been, but it wasn't as good as it's made-out.

If he does the same this time around it's likely to be remembered as a pretty 40-odd, because it's highly unlikely he'll get missed again in the same circumstances.

It was 98. And Richards does say stupid things all the time and here he proves it with his first post in this thread, because ...

a. It was not a simple catch
b. It was not the most salient feature of the inning
c. Second chance theory is stupid.

There is a difference between should and Could. You clearly have no idea (as always) of what you are talking about.

Are you this much in denial or is this your idea of sarcasm ???
2nd chance theory is bollocks and its been explained to you many times why it is so.

Problem is when someone talks about 'should've could've might've', they usually are losing touch with reality where those words have very little value.

Great innings by one of the greatest in modern time, who had to combat,Akhtar, Pakistan team and nandrolone in the match to win the game for India.

Umar Gul and Rana should be prepared from the same treatment, but not necessarily by the same player
