MSD is not great at Intl T20s but I think overall as a T20 player, he is very good. And if I am not wrong, Ganguly actually said MSD Is not a "good" T20 player. Not great does not mean he is not good, AFAIC.

The game was just about even when he came in at 3-114 in the final, and he hammered them. Along with Gambir hammered Sri Lanka's bowlers. It was a superb knock. His hair cut around 2007 was one of the worst in world cricket of all time. And that includes Funky Millers haircuts.

He has had a chip on his shoulder when it comes to talking about MS for a while now. And he seems to be the kind of guy who will absolutely HATE anyone who becomes better than him in the things he thinks he is great at.

He made more of a difference than Sachin ever did, mate. And since when is MoMs the definitive indicator of impact of a player on a game?

Ganguly has repeatedly called MSD the greatest Indian captain ever, when there's actually a case for Ganguly as well.

He averages 36.63 in international T20s. That's huge compared to almost all specialist batsmen.
His SR isn't incredible but it's solid. Unless he's been responsible for single-handedly losing more than a few games through slow batting (which might be true I don't know) then he's a pretty good player.
And that's just his batting.

Links? I remember he was quite reasonable about him as long as he was just a commentator but since he got into the BCCI, the tone has been remarkably different.

When has Sachin ever played T20s for India? If you are talking about ODIs, disagree.

Why is the discussion now about international T20s? We are talking abt all T20s here.

No one's ever claimed Sachin to be a great T20 player, he was good (and at times average) but that's it, "making more difference than Sachin" in T20s is a fairly useless criterion. Dhoni's strike rate is fairly poor for someone who comes in at 6, his need to see of a few balls at the start, which doesn't hamper anyone in ODIs really drags him down in T20s, it is a fact and is there for everyone to see.

Trust Indians to make it all about Sachin again. Smh.

Again, read my post. His tone has been very different post 2015 WC once he got into BCCI politics.
