GOD BLESS YOU, and do not ponder on the past but concentrate on the future . Always trust your natural instinct and dont curb your natural game.All said and done your the Greatest palyer INDIA has ever produced and you have nothing to prove to anybody. So enjoy your game and add more centuries to your tally.
Many happy returns of the day Sachin. Happy Birthday!!!!!
I am sure people will learn to respect the national heros; you are the one beyond any doubt. I am sure its only matter of time when you return to ODIs, and those who know you a little, are pretty confident that your bat will fire and fire well to shut the mouth of undue criticism. Leave all these worries for a while and enjoy your day.
Sachin aap jiyo hazaron saal. You are the greatest batsman of all time india has ever produced. No matter what every one say you are the best in world cricket.

Ritesh, I would only like to see the records that all great players have played till they are very close to 40 in age, no doubt that the performance has not remained at the same level, but their respective countrymen still supported because they were the national heroes. Sachin is still far more capable and in fact, barring his failure in the last two innings in the world cup (which have indeed casted dearly), he has been doing reasonably well. Please appreciate that Sachin, even for that matter all players, must be frustrated like you and me for not advancing in the world cup, but then this is sports and one should be willing accept such rare happenings with open mind. The fact remain than Bangladesh team has grown and they have beaten South Africa and Newzelands as well.
Personally i wish you all success in your future. In professional, I suggest you, please hangup your boot, so that, Indian cricket will survive. If you are playing only for your records, there is no fun in playing interrnational cricket, even if you scores 100 centuries and your team on loosing path there is no funda in that. We all know you have come from same region where Gavaskar has come ( most probably your mentor) the two selfish cricketer in Indian Cricket history.
Its not a question of giving heart & soul to Indian cricket from last 17 years. We love Sachin, when he fires at the crunch situation (against Australia in 1998 & against pakistan in WC 2003) or please give way to youngster, where we can see "more machwinner than Record maker"
Wish you a very very Happy Birth Day. You are a back bone of Indian Cricket. You has to play next World Cup of India and win the cup to all of us. Once again Happy Birth Day.
