is a highly overrated player. He is a reasonably good player in ODIs, in tests he could have been far better, by now he should have scored 50 centuries in tests. He is also very conscious of records, like the way Federer is, but Federer is in a individual sport so such selfishness is ok. He is not among the top 10 batsmen of the current generation too leave alone top 10 of all time. I wonder why Don Bradman exaggerated the talents of Saching Tendulkar.

I am Sachin's fan, but sometimes i also felt that sachin played for records, in his last century against srilanka he needed 1 run to complete his century, he could try to send it for six or four, but took single a complete his century, i got angry it was last ball and India was playing 1st in any case for any team normally player try to get 6 or 4 and here sachin didn't take risk and took single. sorry sachin no body liked this. but ok u r also human being on that we can leave u.

Because Bradman knows what he is talking about. He is not a fool. He could see a good performer in Sachin. Any more Doubts?

Surely you are not a Indian ! I can understand criticism when it has to come but what you are doing is outrageous stupidity

well said prashant... hope the sachin fans would realise that he is an ordinary mortal and no better than lara, hussey, ponting etc., plus he is a bunny to so many bowlers... heath streak, shaun pollock, chaminda vaas, glenn mcgrath, pedro collins, brett lee, shane bond even a kid called mpumellelo mbangwa of zimbabwe whom sachin ripped later shamelessly.. LoL.. had he had some self esteem left, he should've retired gracefully after he was in "good form" in WI series in India.
