You are bang on! What you say is 100% true and I support your views. These Fab Four Or Five have more than 5 decades of cricketing experience and have given their best to India. They had their downfalls and low moments.But who does not have. Every sports person will have their ups and downs. A time has to come for everybody to retire. you retire from sports, you retire from your job, you retire from your life's responsibilities. That's the way life and is and time will come for everybody. You me and everybody. Like you said the Media has hyped the whole Fab 4/5 retirement issue instead of letting this fabulous criceters doing their job ans setting their own agendsa. How can one forget Ganguly' fantastic 187 NO against Sri Lanka in England WC. How can your forget laxman's 281 and Dravid's knock in that test. How can one forget Sachin blasting of Shane Warne in Mumbai and Sharjah, How can one forget Kumble's perfect 10. We are luck we are in this era to have witnessed their superb performances.
I dont if any of the present bunch of so called young criceters can match up to the fab 5. I dont see any of them having the capacity to play cricket like the fab 4/5.
India may produce such heroes again but never at the same time. It will be a long time till we see a bunch of crickters at the same time performing at their best.
god bless these FAB 4/5 and I would like to thank them all for entertaining us for more than a decade.The nation should be proud of them.
