The sight of Sachin Tendulkar falling to the ground after being bowled by Asif in the second innings of the Karachi test was depressing. Of course, it was not the first time that Tendulkar tried to give the impression that the ball kept low. That gave cue to the media that the ball which got the wicket of Tendulkar was a 'shooter'.
Anyone who has played a bit of cricket on the dusty turfs of India, knows what it is like to be confronted with a shooter. A shooter rarely has any upward movement; it just slithers to the wickets.
Tendulkar has not been brought up and bred on the hard and bouncy wickets of Australia.

It is amazing that the player of Tendulkars class gets bowled so many times.I think he has high percentage of dissmisal as a class batsmen.I think i will agree with Rishi.
But cricket is the game of glorious uncertainity lets wait and see if Tendulkar makes his bad patch a thing of the past.
