TIMES NOW-AND-THEN : Thanks to espncricinfo.com and IBM, every tom, dick and harry can now come with his own complex statistical analysis. Now you can filter out the number of matches India has won during Kumbh Mela or the number of runs Sachin has scored while you were having double-Omelet for Breakfast. So, we decided to do our own METHEMATICAL ANALYSIS and we managed to find the answer to the one question which has been doing the rounds on the Internet these last couple of days,
“Only 68 per cent of Sachin’s centuries have come for a winning cause. If Sachin is not a match-winner, then who is India’s REAL match-winner?”
And the answer to that question is….DRUMROLL….. Mr. Mohammad Kaif !!
Kaif has scored two ODI centuries and India has won both games. And what’s more interesting is that both those centuries were against TEST-PLAYING nations, New Zealand and Zimbabwe. That’s a 100% record, that too aginst test-playing nations.
When contacted for comments, Kaif’s response was, “What the hell? Are you guys crazy? You call me India’s Biggest match-winner and people made a mickey out of me by having my name come up three times at the IPL auction until Dr.Mallya took pity on me and made a bid. Go pick on someone else.”
P.S : To all people who are bashing Sachin by coming up with all sorts of percentages from statsguru. Here’s something from a different perspective.

P.P.S : Now I know why you guys use so much of Statsguru. Creating complex queries and comparing results is as much fun as solving a cross-word puzzle. J
