Sachin had no rights or India would not have allowed him to retire unless he scored 100 tons. Again, Indian fans will not allow or Sachin has no rights to call it quits until he scores another ton in ODIs which is 50th century in ODIs. He has so far hit 49 tons in ODIs. After scoring 50th ODI century, he can personally decide to continue play or call it a day.
then its batsmen fault or bowler and captain's fault?
Its shame, we ve bowlers in our team who r even worst than Kenya or Holland bowlers.. At least they will fight.. We should play 11 batsmen rather taking 4 or 5 bowlers in team in ODI

I dont think most of them even saw the whole match!! Their comments only prove that!! otherwise they would have seen where we faltered
Sachin - you are just trying to fool yourself & your fans by these kind of statements..I don't care if you don't respect your critics, but also remember there are so many who have already lost respect about you!!

Dravid failed in England, Australia recently. His defence or wall first time shows a hole. He was not at the top of the game. Instead he failed continously and he retired. Dravid retired at the time of his failure, ofcourse it is not selfish.

Rahul failed in England?!!
and you are saying Sachin is on top of the game from last one & half years?!!
Dravid's decision shows how mature he is in his thinking and how well he understood what is best for Indian cricket. Sachin's statement again proved why many of us think that he plays only for his records and personal milestones.

Do yo know dravids decision was based on that he should retire when he is on top of his game or rather when he know he should as he is not dat gud and there r players better than him.

Dear Modertor: SRT is paragon of virtue. I hope you do not delete this message, as you have been all genuine remarks of mine about what really is `selfish'

you r right they just want to say some thing as they are unemployed... if he did not score hundred then they would say he is not capable of scoring hundred against bangladesh, now he has scorred so they say he scored against the bangladesh. we know how many still love to watch Sachin playing and switch of the TV when he is out.

his was the slowest run rate and poor Dhoni had to scramble with 200% run rate with whatever was available to him

Dhoni was the fool because of him and bowlers india lost to Bangala
Its for very few instance when one gets chance to retire with pride and glory, I think is sure time that Sachin retire with pride when he is on top of world, Ex. Dravid was dropped by selectors, for sachin it should not happen

Retirement is about when u think now there are others who can serve better than you not for own glory and he rightly had said that is being sellfish.
