Haydos: A Batting Bully!!!

One giant departed from the game of cricket called Matt Hayden. He was one of those few left in the team, who where part of both the 16 test wining streak. He was from a generation, who along with other greats converted the very “Baggy Green” into a “Crown”.

His journey involved bringing many opponents to submission using brut force began in India in 2001. He was an imposing figure and on field the bat looked like toothpick in his hands. His explosive starts in the beginning of the innings set the tone of innings. He laid foundations for many of the team’s victory by seeing the new ball through. He was one of those who changed the way test match is played.

He has played more than 100 tests and spent enough time in the field to prove himself. Only regret remains the fact that Aussies did not give him a fitting farewell like the ones given to Warne and Gilchrist. But anyway he would not mind, He has never been a sentimental man. He has been one of the most formidable batsmen of the decade and one of those classical southpaws who had a great technique and mixed it with brut force.

Aussie Loss, CSK gain

He will get to play the IPL, when his former team mates would be on national duty. He had a great first season, with important contributions to his team in the four matches he played. Off course Aussies would miss him probably the best of him in times to come. CSK still enjoys his services for at-least two more years.

World would miss a batsmen who batted with authority and certainty. He would be remembered as a batsman who gave sleepless nights to the best bowlers of his times.
