He is one of the best playing batsmen the game has ever seen. Unfortunately, it never converted to India winning most of the times. His centuries ( most of them ) have been wasted. Its better to win a match for India, than to make a cntury and India losing.

One of the reasons why his centuries never made much difference was becasue some of the other playerd sold the pride of their of nation for huge amount of money.

Senior players should retire of their own when they start loosing form.Sachin has done enough for india and brought laurel to our country.He should take care of his health
Sachin was lucky to born in India not in Australia. Had he born in Australia, he would have played less than 100 tests and thrown out of the National Team along with Steve Waugh some six years back. In India, he can play at least 3-4 more world cup.

or you never know Australians by now would have created the museum to keep Sachins accessories including his UWear also and all you losers then would have happily paid 50$ just to go and see that and try to smell it just because he is australian?

Sachin is not the only player in team. There are 10 more players who need to contribute for the wins. A team cannot win with individual effort it should be a team effort. After giving so much for the country Sachin still has to prove himself for people like u.And Mr.Babu i dont think u know anything about cricket. So dont comment on what u dont no.

Absolutely right. He should have been dropped atleast three years ago, but for the Mumbai Lobby. He is great no doubt about it. But today he plays just for his records and money and for nothing else.Neither he is able to help the country nor he is prepared to lead the country and win nor he wants India to win. He just wants to carry on for the sake of money.
