 If you feel temptation and the urge is very strong, give a little whistle. Give a little wrong cricket, they're gonna give a little copyright. So cheesy. Uh, thank you for your support on Patreon. You guys are fantastic. And also, um, polish an official Twitter account, because there's 5,000 of you beautiful stupid babies there, and you helped me out a lot. Uh, but, Twitter, we're reacting to a cricket video, but it's a Sochyn cricket video. It's called Sochyn, the best innings compilation. I think it's like almost a documentary, short documentary. Uh, I think I could be totally wrong. Uh, we haven't, we've only reacted to Sochyn's film. Correct. Sochyn Billion Dream. Trailer. The long time ago. Trailer. Uh, this is actually about the player. So we're learning a lot about cricket and... Going to a cricket game. Uh, look out for that. Uh, but, here we go. Because he's known as the God of Cricket. That's what they tell us. Here we go! Legends of cricket! In his homeland, he enjoys a year-glot-like status. Great players hailing as a backing genius. He is intelligent and handsome. Yet decency and humility are his watchwords. Still one of the finest batsmen in the world today. Sasha Ntendulka is one of ESPN's Legends of Cricket. On a seeming wicket, Sasha Ntendulka was promoted to open the batting in a one-day international against New Zealand. He made 84 from 49 balls. Ntendulka will go down in, certainly, in Indian history. I think it's probably their best player. And there have been some very good ones. But this modern Indian generation, where they've been able to see him play all his cricket on television, I think will result in him being remembered forever. I think he's one of those very few great players who started off looking special. At the age of 14, 15, anybody who saw him realised that he was a child prodigy. And he never let anybody down. We had huge expectations when he saw him the first time. And Indian expectations can be quite, you know, heavy at some time. Could be a little impractical as well. But athletes don't live up to the expectations they've found young. Look at that. Just a wonderful player. And we're seeing the rest of him today. I love jerseys. Go back. You're always doing throwback days. Beautiful shot. Wow. Ntendulka said that he's the benchmark for modern batsmen. Don Bradman believed that he was the closest one to himself. The best way to sum up Ntendulka's technique is to go back to what Sir Donald Bradman said about him. And that is that when Bradman was watching him bat one day and he said to his wife, come and have a look at this, this bloke bats like me. And he was talking about Ntendulka. I think he's the most complete batsman of his age and perhaps of all time. Because he scored runs against every kind of bullying, everywhere in the world, every situation, every, all kinds of pitches. And that's something you can't say about everybody in the world. I think he's the best player in the world today. Without a shadow of doubt. Another small man you see like Bradman and... He burns. I was just going to say, it's a great name. I mean, there's so much timing. We used to play the ball. And again, as I said about all greats, tremendous balance. And there's a lot to be said for that. He's close to being the most perfect batsman one has ever seen. His back lift is straight, his balance is unbelievable. He can play off either foot, he can play on either side. And again, that ability that separates the men from the boys. The ability to hit the good ball for boundaries of success. He also influences the game with his skillful bowling and athletic and accurate feeling. He versates bowlers and dominates games. That's a scratching shot through extra cover. Sachin as a batsman is just... You know you're watching someone special. You know that you're photographing someone who will only be coming on. You know, say it once every 100 years. He brought a new dimension to Indian cricket. You had a Gausker on the one hand who grinds bowlers out and brought a lot of pride for us as a world-class batsman. But suddenly here was someone who was taking attacks apart. And I think they looked at the product of his generation. He came in when India were a prouder nation. India as a nation that created self-belief. And he came in at a time when India was looking for that kind of hero. What a shot. Gaur staying up in the port of beautiful on drive. This incredible start. It's crazy. Sometimes they say to stop. They come up with those actions. Performances. It's almost like the whole Indian population wanting him to succeed. What second to say? We're going with that on the shoulders for 20 years. You know, that is the most amount of pressure in cricket. The speed of like it's coming at you. You have a decision about where you're going to place it. He's been the most phenomenal technician that the hunger and drive and passion the guys had to have that longevity. That's a very humble idea too. Yes, it was an ESPN thing. Two things that come to mind immediately when they talked about the expectations since they knew when he was 14. It was like, here's this 14-year-old kid. Reminds me of when they were talking about LeBron in the NBA. Because they started talking about LeBron when he was playing high school and they already had anointed him. Like he's going to be the next Kobe, the next MJ. It's hard to live up to that. I mean, he did. And he did. I mean, he did. And it's also, it's like, you know, having to replace I mean, this isn't really comparable but when you have to step into the shoes of somebody like a Joe Montana, right? Like Young did. When those kinds of expectations are on you most of the time people don't live up to the expectations. Like Aaron Rodgers. Right. Ken Griffey Jr. had tons of injuries in baseball. There was actually a kid in soccer in the MLS. I don't believe he's actually from the United States stuff. He was a prodigy of soccer. He was 14 years old. Right. And he was going to be like the next Pele. Right. And he was good but then he kind of just fizzled out didn't live up to the hype. Happens more often than not. It happens they don't live up to the hype. And apparently he exceeded the hype. See that God of cricket. Yeah. And the other thing too that we're learning about cricket compared because I've said this before on other reactions we've done to cricket that my sport growing up since I mean so I could hold things might have put a baseball in my hand. So I played baseball was my high school sport. It was my college sport. And I know every little nuance. I can watch a hitter and I can tell like if I'm watching the Yankees and Aaron Judges swinging and his swing is off and he's striking out I can tell what he's doing with his swing based on his hand position on the bat and what he's doing with his right shoulder if he's rotating his hips. I'm not no we're near remotely close to that with this but this has so much more going on because your options of where you're going to swing and where the ball is going to go are infinitely more complex because in baseball the pitchers got to put it in the strike zone. And if it's not in the strike zone you're not swinging. I'm like this. This is pretty much everywhere this thing goes. Swing back. Wherever this thing goes I'm going to hit it and not only am I going to have to make contact I mean baseball players do this too. A good baseball player is going to know I got runners in scoring position. I don't want to force play. I want to hit it to the right side to at least move the men over or I want to hit a fly ball so they can tag up. So they can place the ball and there's a great story of Rod Karoo from The Angels the catcher is talking to him while he's hitting and the catcher is trying to mess with his head and says where are you going to put this rod and as the pitch comes in and he's swinging he says I'm going to put it in right and he hits it to the right field. But this like I remember when we were in the cage it's totally antithetical to baseball swinging because the ball could be coming at you and you've got to hit it somewhere. You can go behind you. You also have to protect the wicket. Right. The ball could be coming behind you and it could be coming behind you but there's a spin on it and it's actually come back toward you and you've got to think and you can see he's like okay in a millisecond I'm going to put this over to the right and I'm going to put it right between these two guys who are standing about a meter apart from each other. I just... Yeah. And they also say there would be no MS Doni without the saw. Right. And those are the two like that I've heard. The great greats. The legends. And there's of course many many others but those are the two that like but they say that MS Doni wouldn't be here without what Sachin did for the game of cricket in India. Right. So that's crazy. I want to know because we've seen Ligand. I want to know what other cricket movies should it be Sachin Abellion Dreams or should it be the MS Doni? The only one. Total story. Right. I think there was a South Indian one as well. And I'm sure there's others we don't know. Yeah. Enlighten us stupid family. Tell us what we should watch because I'd love to watch more of them want to learn more about the sport. I really enjoyed Ligand. Of course. Yeah. It was great. Yeah. It did teach us quite a bit. It did. I understand more of it now. Like when it's rolling out of bounds and I was like oh that's four points. That's it. I know that. I'm so smart. So it actually makes me feel like I would know what I'm going to watch. If we went to a game. Yeah. Could you imagine what it would be like? If we ever went. If we ever went. Imagine if we could see India play. Wow. Like if they were ever coming to the United States. That'd be crazy. They would never do that. No, no, no. They'd probably go someplace stupid like Florida. Yeah, probably.
