The biggest difference between Sachin , Sourav , Rahul is that they have been applies different yardsticks. whenevr sachin fails he is given a permanent label that champions strike back. and whenevr Ganguly and Dravid failed everyone yelled of sacking them. To be very honest our selectors dont have the guts to drop sachin they are bias. The pressure of representing India is different and Captaining it is completely different. And this is the only reason why Ganguly has retired and Dravid is not there in ODI. ALL POLITICS

If u r a real lover of Indian cricket u shud also mention the reason why Sachin shud be sacked. Wat is ur prob? A player should be dropped only when he is out of form for a long time. Sachin was never out of form for that long. Sourav was playing terrific cricket after his comeback. He deserves to be in the team even now. But when he was dropped he was not playing that well. He was playing in the team only bcoz he was a captain then. But after the break he was very much different. When he retired he was in the form of his life. Dravid has been out of form for an year now. His records in the past one year speaks volumes about it. His form was really poor. Even the few good knocks during this period was only bcoz of his fighting spirit. He is in very poor form now. Sachin's position was never questioned not bcoz of his superstar image. It was only bcoz he was really consistant. I really believe a player of Sachin's caliber should not be compared with anyone else. He is such a class Act.

yeah, may be!! Now that australia can't win convincingly - it's time to look out for personal milestones. As for sachin - we would be happy if he could play hand in few more wins even if it is without scoring any hundred as he would be remembered as always as the best batsman after Don.
