Dont critize sachin..he may not be the batsman he was ..but just look at statistics..he is still probably the nest India batsman in the last few runs in term of runs cored and statistics..he may not be a match winner anymore....but he can still bat better than most indian players.thanks

"...he may not be a match winner anymore..." is the problem. We need people who can perform when it is needed, not models carrying placards of 15000 runs.

sachin is not good....he's extremely good....amongst the best.....he is GOD of cricket.....even the gods in ur mythology have made a lot of mistakes (all of them) & none is perfect....yet they r worshipped aren't they. why castigate sachin ! he is a human who has immense talent....such individuals r called genius........ failure is but a part of the game.....u show me a player who has never lost never failed & i'll join u in opposing sachin & dravid

pl yaar...when it matters pl see the record ..Tendulkar hasnt performed for India. Only the latest one heroics from Tendulkar is at Sharjah against Australia. But take the stats of Lara, Ponting, Grame smith, Flemming & many more who are all match winners for their country when the chips are down...

Flemming ???? God! He has been one of the worst batsman for NewZealand.....struggling for his form since long. From where do u get ur stats ?

sorry yaar..taking the current stats....i felt flemming is also good compared to many of the Indian players. I see fighting spirit in them, which is really lacking with Indians. U give the world's top phycologist, even then Indians will not have the Mental Strength, which is one of the main ingredients in cricket.

Some people have weak memories! When Smith, Lara and other teams players perform, they have some support from their teammates. We want Gods not humans to play cricket. The reason why the Sharjah match is still in our memories is because he won matches single handedly. He won us many more matches, but the difference was that others contributed too. That is why we have won more matches in the past 5 years than the 20 years before that. Give him the role of playing like what he did before and he will still win matches. But only a few because if Sachin and Dravid fail, we have a procession back to the dressing room. Smith, Flemming, Lara, Ponting have the belief that if they lose one match they can win the next. If India loses one match, the players homes are stoned. That does not happen in Australia, West Indies or in South Africa. It happens only in India.

navin, absolutely right !
we overburden sachin & dravid in excess & then complain whenevr they fail. we owe our success to incredible consistency displayed by dravid over years & amazing spectacles delivered by sachin. these 2 r easily the kost committed cricketers in international arena today.......& look at us....how do we treat our heroes. Had we followed the same yardstick for expected performace in every field & the same response for failures then I'm sure more than 80% of India will have to prosecuted in public !
