Someone ask these good for nothing Sachin detractors what they had achieved at the age of 16 or how successful they are today? Got no work to do, criticize a great performer. NO ONE has come forward to state how the aussies (congential cheaters) sabotaged his career, first during sharjah when he was twice given out wrongly, throughout an Australian tour and then Bucknor, a sold soul was used to psyche him out. NO INDIAN ever came forward to blast those cheats. People did admire lbw-proof phoney ponies - ponting who was gifted 2 double cents in the test series, was out twice or thrice on zero, a century in the WC final too and langer who scored a double ton in the previous tour thanks to biased "WWF type" umpiring, none paid respect to our bowlers who were cheated against. Richie "BITCHIE" Benaud commented against him during the Mike "puppet of racists" denniss episode. We should all admire the quality of the SACHIN and boycott WISDEN which lists fake records for mcgrath, ponting and langer.
Well, i've been taken by surprise that Tendulkar has reacted 2 criticism.Ofcourse its understandable that a man can't keep quiet 4 such a long time as close 2 15years, being at the highest level. Its a great achievement that sachin bhayya has made, by answering 2 critics through his batting and not with the mouth. My personal request 2 all those criticise him is,'plz leave him alone and b calm when he fails coz he is also just a human being like us and a human being cannot score 50hundreds in 50games.' We must just try and understand the amount of pressure he is under, whenever he enters the ground with the bat. I am ashamed of the indians who try and disgust tendulkar coz he is the rare diamond born in our country , a boon in disguise 4 the whole of cricketing world.On occasions he scores lets enjoy his batting and when he fails, let us keep in mind that he will do well the next time and stop disturbing his batting skills .
I saw him play against the Lankans and the two shots that he hit for four were simply terrific. Sachin is a class apart and he has the elegance that no other batsman in the world has. The recent slump of form has to do with his mental setup rather than his technique. He is too unsure of his role now that he has got Veeru as his opening partner. Once he makes his mind about his style of play (and he should do that quickly), we will see the same old Sachin with free flowing strokes and silken touch. And a word for his critics...... never doubt his abilities, because you are too dwarfed to do that!
Sachin is such a talented cricketer. Even if he fails with the bat, he compensates thro' his spin bowling. HENCE HE IS STILL A TRESURE FOR INDIAN CRICKET.
Dear Sachin, It is true that you are the world's top batsman with a huge fan following. You are like a god to sports lover. The thing is that people always expect you to score more runs. I personally feel that once you get set it is very difficult to dislodge you. But in recent times, we are not getting to see our old sachin. The consistency of making big runs is lacking.
Nobody said you werent enjoying your cricket!!Everybody was/is complaining that they are not enjoying your cricket!!Please dispel your assumption! A 82 against the minnows doesn't mean you flaunt about it in front of your critics!! We all believe you are one of the best batsmen to walk over the planet, ther eis no doubting that.But please!Listen to your critics a bit carefully,There might be something for you! People have been observing the game of cricket for decades now and it is not right to say that they do not understand the game! People have complained that your performance in the tests havent been close to what a master batsmen like you should have!! People have complained that your coming out to the press and showing your dissatisfaction at an early declaration at Australia wasnt to be expected by a team player like you!! People have complained that yours and Ganguly's performance against top teams havent been whats to be expected by master blasters like you!! So please answer these questions rather than come out against your critics after a meaningless 82 against Bangladesh(they have won 10/90 odd games they have played) Show us the Sachin every kid wants to be!!

One can hear 10 critics or hundered critics but with billions of mouths constantly hounding him he is definitely bound to retaliate sometime or the other. I think he retaliated very late. As published in cricinfo "He is like a 16 year old with billions of parents".

Dude! It is not tendulkar who should hear the critics correctly but its YOU. Yes its you because every other day it was written in papers that HE is not enjoying his batting these days and he has to be his older self. Dude he is now 31 and the senior most player in India and if he doesn't play responsibly then who else will? Also if he doesnot play responsibly All You critics will say he should have avoided RASH shots. Come on guys think why he is doing changes to his batting! You have got brain try to apply it. Also what do you think he should be Gandhi? He has every right to talk about the early declaration against australia. Also HE didnt come out with it by himself. It was only after these irritating news papers poked him with questions as they wanted a controversy. Even then he said that he was shocked that the declaration came does he not have right to say this much? So my message to critics is keep your mouths shut and Tendulkar knows what he is doing.
Dear Praveen, you are mistaken!

Dear Mr.Praveen whatever Anoop has said is 75% correct & 25% wrong.Whatever suggestion he gave to Sachin, I don't think that's necessary at all. Sachin is quite smart. But there is one thing I fully agree is that over the years he has detoriated.You imagine before Sachin made an impression on the world, Javed Miandad was the leading century scorer of 8 centuries in ODI. It took him 23 years just to make 8 centuries. Whereas Sachin, in the year 1998 he made 9 centuries in 1 year. Imagine that and recently in 2003, in one whole year he only scored 2 centuries from 20 games. Sachin had said that the change which has come in his batting is a sign of maturity.But does maturity mean cutting down on the no. of 100's that he used to make? When you mature you become more careful.But even after him being careful he is not able to score centuries.He was better off the way he used to play. If you look at his records he has achieved more success when he used to play like 'The Old Tendulkar'. You also said that people don't understand how much pressure he's under.Let me tell you one thing my friend that he has never been enjoying his game as much as he is enjoying now.
The report OR the news which rediff is giving is Dicto to Dicto Copy of Crickinfo web site. They are just copying it from cricinfo web site and giving their name. I am noticing it from last 15 days.
