You are hoping for the best as a Sachin Fan. Eventhough he scores a century agaist Bangladesh, it will not be considered much. We require him to prove at England in the coming season and against Australia. I do agree he is having credintials but it is getting decreased with his age.

Mr. Lakshman,
what do u mean by Tendulakr continuing the slow rate?
Do u have common sense?
Tendulkar came at the end of the innings.. and they dont want to lose wicket... everyone plays carefully on the end of the day.. Karthik.. took 73 balls for his 17 runs at one stage.. First they need to settle then they can establish themselves.. dont talk crap..

Yes we cannot teach him cricket. But we can atleat remind him to move on. This guy played as if he is a night watchman. He has to told that he is in the team as a batsman. If consumes time like this tomorrow, he will be helping Banladesh in drawing the match. This is difference between us and Aussies. They leave nothing to chance. In case it rains in this match and you are short of time for result to an extent it will be your own doing.

Don't include Dravid in the list. Dravid is a player who performs well in alien conditions. Did you know that 90% of the man of the match awards he received is on foreign soil. Watch out for him in the England Series

dude, who said Dravid, Tendulkar, Ganguly are hitters,.....may be many years in the past they were good,...but its over now,....they are loosing their skills everyday,.. By the end of next year sachin will start taking training with his son from the begning

Which world you are talking about Ms Fatima who shakes after hearing names like Sachin and Ganguly? TWO YEARS and no good results, that thing does not shakes nobody. But yep, we have not lost anything. We still hope that one day he will be back on podium and say goodbye to all of it. Just like Masters in other sports.
RE:Sachin In Englad
by Kaushik Ghosh on May 25, 2007 07:41 PM
Dear Rohan/ DM,
SACHIN, DRAVID, GANGULY still have lots to offer in Test match cricket. Of these three Ganguly is perhaps 3rd best in batsmanship, but even he made a difference when he was included in the test squad for the South African tour. Laxman also played well there. Remember, how the inclusion of these two players in the Test squad changed the fortunes of the Indian team? They are still India's best in terms of technique, experience, talent...They can still fight it out against the best bowlers in the world in the most trying conditions. Check this out in England where it will swing; you'll need the technique, experience, talent of these four veterans....
FOR GOD'S SAKE DON'T JUST CRITICISE FOR THE SAKE OF IT....
RE:Whole world is waiting for 37th century
by Jarnail singh on May 25, 2007 06:52 PM
i have not seen a selfish palyer like sachin in my life (talking about cricket only). just when team needs quick runs he is looking for his century from the first ball. 9 runs in 31 balls. oh god what he is doing their. he always played for personal records. good track and harmless bangush bowling is enough to smell a century. he doesnt bother that india needs quick runs so even if rain interrupts the match we will have enough overs to bowl them out. he is very greedy and playing for money. he just want to show his sponsors want to show that he is capable of hitting centuries. he is eyeing captainship too. this is why he became vice captain and putted pressure on dravid. dravid is now afraid of him. with cotrie of vengsarkar and pawar sachin wanted to become captain again. not to win matches for india just to pull his cricket carrer two yrs more. you people may laugh but i must tell you i was a staunch supporter of sachin tendulkar. he was playing like a lion. but he should know lion should live like a lion not like a pussy cat. if he cannot bat like he was used to then he should resign immedietly. it is painful to see sachin playing like a very ordinary batsman.
RE:Whole world is waiting for 37th century
by Rajesh Iyer on May 25, 2007 07:03 PM
It should be "Whole world is waiting for Tendulkar to retire" (not because he is a great batsman, but because he is finished). And the message line should read "And he will not". How many of u agree to this?
RE:Whole world is waiting for 37th century
by Seenu Subbu on May 25, 2007 07:24 PM
If you didn't do well in your current job, let us say, would it be ok to expect you to retire than dilly dally on the issue? Or may be your kid didnt do well in school at all.. Is it better to remove him from school? Tendulkar's decision is Tendulkar's decision. I watched some three hours of Tendulkar video on YouTube, and just realized. He "WAS" our greatest. Let's give him some credit for all the good memories he gave, (the sixer against Abdul Qadir to the sixer against Shoab Akthar, and the cheeky pull shots against McGrath!).. You dont throw the baby out with the water.
RE:RE:Whole world is waiting for 37th century
by Rajesh Iyer on May 25, 2007 07:47 PM
I take no credits away from Tendulkar. But it's time he bids adieu to the team. He is the greatest batsman on earth, but still I don't see any instincts of match-winner in him. He can be a good contributor but he cannot be a match winner(period).
RE:Whole world is waiting for 37th century
by dude man on May 25, 2007 06:44 PM
yeah if he stays there for 300 balls,....that sachin dude has totally lost his original cricket,..just playing for records and to be in the team. And Fatima dude,...no one is waiting for his 37th except his blind indian fans
RE:Whole world is waiting for 37th century
by sabteam on May 25, 2007 07:57 PM
Rohan,
Karthik took 73 balls for his 17 runs... it will take time to settle down.. tendulakr came at the end of day so there is no need to play shots or lose wickets when we r comfortably placed.. in 1st Test his century came from 160 odd balls.. that is not bad in tests... If u want 100's in 100 or less balls then u shud change ur mind and come out of ODI or 20-20 phobia.
RE:Whole world is waiting for 37th century
by dude man on May 25, 2007 06:50 PM
dude look how is has wasted more than 20 balls to score 9 runs,....I think he is loosing his skills 5% every day.
It seems that everyone here is intent on India bashing and have not yet got the hang of Test cricket. Each team has a distinct style and the team today played brilliantly. I am sure they will improve upon today's effort on the morrow. Give the guys a chance and be happy at the way these guys are playing in hot and humid conditions.
Its great to see so many people having the time to waste to see the match and then comment on it. Lets all get some reality check. We have 2 - 3 years to go before our boys have the capability to rekindle interest of our entire population back in the game. As commented on TV news even bangladesh, if it had batted on this track would maybe have made a better score.

That's enough guys! Let's stop making fun of Sachin just because these 2 youngsters played well today. Let's not make decisions based on one innings. He has to play slow today as he needs to save the wicket for tomorrow. That's commonsense. Even if he is out tomorrow at this score, so what? He saved the first test when the so called "Jaffer" was duck in both innings.
Why is it always Sachin's responsibility to be the highest scorer. Why is only he responsible for the WC loss? Let's respect him. He is far consistent that anyone in this team. Let's see how these youngsters are consistent. These guys play extremely well when given a chance, then once they come in and start making money that's it. I have seen guys from W.V. Raman to S. Ramesh, Laxman, Kaif to Sewag - how consistent they were, compared to Sachin.
Also, Sachin has played well against the so called Australia and other top teams as well. Let's leave him alone. Let's respect a legend and be proud of him.
RE:RE:Sachin
by Rohan on May 25, 2007 06:38 PM
It was a one-o-one by Sachin in first inning, but we somehow managed to save the inning which ended up in a draw. Had Bangladesh played little well, they would already be on the verge of making history. 17 years of struggle in world of cricket and first test win against a team of billion mad followers and big STAR FORCE. Irony? aint it?

Well said Rohan, Team India has a pledge like this. Morever they also want Bangladesh to win their first test match ;) as usual it's only India who gives maximum chances to other world teams to make new kind of records. Viks
RE:stupid tendulkar
by Jarnail singh on May 25, 2007 06:43 PM
He always played for his personal records. he should not not not not be in the team. good track and low quality bowling attack is enough for him to smell a century. he dont bother about teams win. india needs quick runs so that if rain interrupted the match you will have enough time to bowled out bangladesh. but this man is so selfish. 9 runs in 31 balls. oh god. when you need 31 runs of 25 balls he is looking for his century. i think even word selfish is very moderate to describe his deeds. you people may laugh but i was a staunch supporter of sachin tendulkar. but now i do not to see him in team. lion should live like a lion not like pussy cat. sachin should have play like sachin not like an ordinary batsman. he cant he should retire immedietly.
RE:stupid tendulkar
by Rajesh Iyer on May 25, 2007 06:30 PM
In the first session Karthik scored just 19 of 70 balls. But then went on to get 82 at a good strike rate. Watch out Tendulkar do that tomorrow. But keep your fingers crossed, coz it is Tendulkar, who can get a century or get out first ball, either way.
RE:stupid tendulkar
by dosibhatla deekshitulu on May 25, 2007 06:41 PM
Hai alok...keep your words in your pocket. Do not lose them...IF sachin is not there in the team nobody watch even a single match i beleive. Can U tell me who is better than tendulkar in indian cricket now..have you found his replacement...Dont be stupid ...Dont be foolish ....Indian has got craze in international areana after tendulkar debut only. Remember, before tendulkar steps in Indian cricket the maximum one day centuries made by a batsman is four i.e., by Krish srikanth. Now, tendulkar has scored 40 plus out of which india has won more than 28 match..go thro statistics else keep shut your holes.
RE:RE:stupid tendulkar
by Mike Jordan on May 25, 2007 08:18 PM
"Who is better than Tendulkar in Indian team?"
Almost every batsmen including the youngsters are better than Tendulya. Atleast they know how to handle inswinging deliveries. Even our aging Dada looks better than Tendulya these days.
