"After 115 Tests, you've to be prepared to overcome all obstacles. I'm mentally prepared. I've played enough against Australia, I know what to expect."
As quoted by Sachin above Sachin should serve India atleast till the next worldcup.
though it sounds selfish, but Sachin should play that much more from now.
What a stupid idea to include a player like Tendulkar, when he is not 100% fit.
Tendulkar has to think hard, because he is not in good form in Test Cricket for the last two series and playing the test match is going to cost a match for india. Do anyone care ?
In Australia, Everyplayer has to earn his place by pure merit, not by endorsing big corporations and take it for granted. God!.
We have put more into cricket publicity than any sport legitimately deserves!Mr. Dalmia's movements to Sachin's 'tennis'elbow have occupied far too much media space in recent times. Only when the Indian cricketers can show consistently satisfactory performance can we claim a degree of limelight for this game. Merely whipping a mass hysteria-like reaction in the hapless population is nothing but manipulation of the masses far beyond a reasonable limit.Same way the advertising world is hell-bent on cashing in on the gullible people. This must end. We want to see what Sachin is able to do in the matches that he might play in in the future.His past achievements are good for the historians or his biographers or his family.Let us not make a God out of a mere mortal human being.
