Kirti Azad's irresponsible comments!

In the Cricket Planet show during the 1st ODI between India and Pakistan on 11/5/2007, Kirti Azad made some idiotic and irresponsible comments regarding Sachin Tendulkar. Such comments are expected from the normal public but for them to come from an international player himself is pretty sad and ironic!

His specific comment that crossed my mind was - "Tell me one final which India won where Sachin played?"

Was he even confident of his facts before making such an irresponsible comment??

He then went on to talk about consistency and how "senior players" should walk away themselves when they start being inconsistent. What really surprises and ticks me more is that players such as Azad who were highly inconsistent themselves talk big about consistency. This was in response to a simple question by the host, Padam, as to who he felt should open the Indian innings.

By the way Mr.Azad, pls find this below link for your kind perusal:

I have posted this message in several forums including one on the Zee Sports website in the sincere hope that it somehow reaches Mr.Azad and he refrains from making such stupid comments in the future - better even if Zee can simply stop taking him on such shows.

For everyone's reference: pls read Kirti Azad's profile on the cricinfo page - it answers all my questions as to how he became an international cricketer after all!
Hint - the first line gives it away!!!
