Tendulkar still has years of cricket in him and is more worthy and daring a cricket player than gavasker was anytime. Tendulkar stil has lot decades to write an autobiography. He better concentrate on game more than anything else and give us back his great game of early 90's. Gavaskar, better do your work and let others play their game.
If Gavaskar is so curious to know in what language Tendulkar and his family converse, he better check with Sachin. Does anyone care? Gavaskar is so obsessed with Tendulkar and has so many times in the past tried to cover up Sachin's big match failures with silly and illogical reasons. Come on guys, let us stop this idol worship!!

Gavaskar is always criticised either when he admires Tendulkar and or when he critcises Tendulkar. So what he is supposed to do! And regarding the Gavaskar and Tendulkar comparison; they are not comparable. Gavaskar always faced the new ball when he came to the crease while Tendulkar is a middle order batsman who is always protected from the new ball by the openers. And Bowlers of Gavaskar era : Holding, Roberts, Garner, Croft, Marshall (most devastating attack in the history of the game), Thomson, Lillee, Pascoe, Hogg, Imran, Sarfaraz, Botham, Willis, Hendricks, Snow, Hadlee, Underwood, Qadir were just too superior than the Tendulkar era bowlers namely : McGrath, Pollock (speeds <= 130 K), Akram, Donald, Waqar, Akhtar, Gillespie, Warne, Dillon, Vettori, Vaas, Muralitharan.
Conclusion : Gavaskar's achievements are far far more creditable.
