I am a strong criticizer of Sachin Tendulkar about his recent batting form, but never questioned about his committment, his attitude and dedication towards cricket while he is playing. You cannot question guys like Sachin and Dravid for their committment on field. That 194* incident against Pakistan, Dravid (Ganguly?) could have continued the innings for 2-3 overs. I am not saying Sachin never plays for personal records also. But I am saying that whenever he is on field he tries to give 100% to the team. Note: I have never liked to call Sachin Tendular as best batsman. I have always said that he is one of best cricketers with his batting, bowling fielding abilities and more over that his sincerity on field. Off fields (about his advertisements) i don't want to comment.

sachin gave joy when his contributions mattered to the team......can't recall any such performance in recent past. selctions shud be based on the merit of performance & going by that simple & universal yardstick......sachin doesn't deserve a place in the team with his current form.
And don't u remeber the innings mentioned in the article...sachin was selfishness exemplified. He wanted to avoid octroi on the free ferrari...he was greed exemplified. And with the number of times he is getting his stumps broken....he's a lame duck personified !
Nobody races an unfit & old horse just coz it ran well in its prime.

it's bygone but if sachin was allowed to continue in that innings...and if he went on to complete his 200 then if dravid had announced his declaration the media and his so-called fans would still fume saying Dravid should have waited till he completes 250...all crap..that was the best in the situation and we won that match...if India lost a volcano would have erupted..luckily Dravid escaped..
