RE:RE:why the cry on sachin

Yeah Man!
Thats what exactly I mean. He is there for creating (Personal)Records. Tell me in how many Finals did he lead India to Victory out of 36 he Played???
See Gilli, even at 98 and 149, he tried to go for massive hits,the first one led him to Century and of course the second was a failure. I am sure that all centuries that you have listed by Aussies have made their Team lift the Cup.(I didnt verify any records for saying this)
Sachin used to defend when he just crosses 90.He used to utilize 20 to 30 valuable balls (in Final !!) for getting 10 runs required for Century. If he had not done that, the results could have been more fruitful.
Okay no doubt about that.He is one of the greatest batsmen around the world right now.Even people who watch him closely (Players of Australia & other teams) themselves admitted that he is Great.But what we cry for is that he never led India into a Final Victory except that Famous One in Sharjah against Aussies. Sachin thus has remained as a (selfish) player who plays for his (Personal) records.
