Sachin should have played the One day series against Pakistan and England and then retired from One Day Cricket. After the Australia Test series he could have retired from all kinds of International Cricket. I feel very sad.December 23 2012 will remain a sad day for millions of his fans. THE SELECTORS SHOULD ASK HIM TO CHANGE HIS DECISION.
It is expected he shall announce his retirement. He has off late not been able to recover back to his original style of playing. It is just not clicking. He is the best judge to decide when he shall retire. Now he shall help the cricket by guiding the young cricketers to improve their playing style so that India shall achieve better results. Hope he shall definitely focus on this aspect. He is highly committed player. Other players shall have to just follow his rules of game. We require more Tendulkars. If we closely search we can identify more such players. Let us hope BCCI shall do that.
Most awaited news. However, it would have much better if farewell match could be given. SACHIN is great.he has given us tons of happiness & pleasure for years.Difficult to get a replacement,but everyone has to retire one day. NARENDRA KUMAR
Sachin contributed Indian cricket for long and got fame. He understood, he could not contribute much in one dayers & hence his announcement for retirement. We compliment his mature decision and wish he could better in Test Cricket through his full devotion, as we do not have players like Dravid or Laxman in test cricket.
i was blessed to c sachin face likes of imran wasim donald mcgra and dominating them... 3 decades have past and still he is in contentions..fighting soldier yo soldier with the youngistan...that says all...
