Instead of going to the media and slamming Chappel, Tendulkar should retire from Cricket with whatever self-respect left. No doubt he was a great player once upon a time. Had he contributed 17 years to Indian cricket (as he said) as a great player, Indian cricket shouldn't have been in such a pathetic state now. People want good performance and not his heart and soul. The decisive match with Sri Lanka during the ongoing world cup, his contribution was a big Zero. And on paper, he is supposed to be the master blaster! This shows what his contribution was. He is so greedy for money and fame that he is defending his pathetic performances like hell to hang around till he can milk more money in whichever way possible. As can be seen, during the last few years, he performs in one match to get a century for himself for records and then relaxes in the next numerous matches. He is making a sorry figure of himself and I really pity him. He has damaged Indian cricket beyound repair by hanging around without any positive contribution.
