Mr.norman.... why ur so disappointed with a person (Sachin) who knows cricket more than anybody, ur not in figure, he is a true sportsman... did u even see him misbavaing with any other player on the field... he was the only person to introduce attacking cricket in indian crickte and what i meant to say is .. he was best... but everybody face highs and low.. u cant just compare a performing and a nonperforming player.. lara has disappointed his country men than did by Sachin... he was out of form for long .. has he been a player in country like india.. he would have even dropped.. such a case hasnt come yet fro Sachin.. u just compare.. who has scored more in last 10 matches.. i dont think any body has scored more than sachin.. that means he is still in form and han it is true that he fails many a times.. but u Mr. Norman also cant do your gal at the age of 35 at the same strength u would do at the age of 25 ... understood.. try to learn some desciplines from sachin.. it will be usefull in yopur career too.. same thing applies,.,, dumbo
