The last year has been really bad for Sachin. 1) He hasn't scored many runs in both forms of the game 2) He was part of a team that returned home in the 1st round of the WC (when he had to face lot of ire) 3) His actions were reprimanded by the BCCI 4) For the first time in his illustrious career, he was dropped (though they say they have "rested") from an Indian ODI side. 5) A case has been registered against him for showing dishonour to the Indian Flag. 6) For the first time in his career, his commitment to the game was questioned.
It was probably the worst year of his career. He'll have a better year ahead, hopefully. Happy Birthday, Sachin!!!
