Tendulkar tops Warne's greatest cricketers list
Sachin Tendulkar topped Shane Warne's countdown of greatest cricketers edging out Brian Lara, who was placed second. Curtly Ambrose, Allan Border and Glenn McGrath rounded out the top five in Warne's Times column.
Warne rated Tendulkar ahead of Lara on account of his mental toughness and hailed him as a "great player and a great man". He wrote, "Outside grounds [in India], people wait until he [Tendulkar] goes in before paying to enter. They seem to want a wicket to fall even though it is their own side that will suffer ... He [Tendulkar] grew up under incredible weight of expectation and never buckled once - not under poor umpiring decisions or anything else."

You cannot say that Sachin has a chance,he's just too good for CRICKET or say he is a chapter of cricket himself. He doesnt have to prove anybody anything at this point when he is almost at the end of his career. He has given the world of cricket a different glimpse. Its very easy for any Tom Dick & Harry to pass comments outside the field,sitting in comfortable room watching cricket. But be carefull "You are talking about a person called SACHIN TENDULKAR" who is just too very big for your comments or suggestion.

Boss, Sachin has 54 ODI and 14 Test match MOM titles with him. Highest run getter in two World Cups. We could have won 2003 world cup, if our bowlers could have delivred better. Bowling was and is always a week point in Indian cricket.
