Ritesh, I would only like to see the records that all great players have played till they are very close to 40 in age, no doubt that the performance has not remained at the same level, but their respective countrymen still supported because they were the national heroes. Sachin is still far more capable and in fact, barring his failure in the last two innings in the world cup (which have indeed casted dearly), he has been doing reasonably well. Please appreciate that Sachin, even for that matter all players, must be frustrated like you and me for not advancing in the world cup, but then this is sports and one should be willing accept such rare happenings with open mind. The fact remain than Bangladesh team has grown and they have beaten South Africa and Newzelands as well.
