No one can take away the records created by Sachin. But, now he is past his prime and no where close to today's best international players. Performance against top teams is missing.
His time is over. Period!
Tendulkar or any other cricketer should earn his place into the side.
The present fiasco is largely due to the senior players and their agents. This matter is no less serious than the match fixing episode. There is money and greed involved in both.
I hope BCCI accepts Zee TV's proposal to develop future cricketers, or, comes up with some novel program, in order to break the monopoly of few individuals.

Sachin has to fulfil his commercial obligations for which he will go to any lengths to be in the team. He forgets that this country has given him unparalled wealth and fame for which he has not done any justice. It is time for him to leave before his records gets tarnished furthur, after all it is for the records that he had all his life.
