Ricky Ponting cannot play for 20 years. He doesn't have the physical fitness of Tendulker

Yeah, he cant hang around for 20 years like Tendulkar, cos he doesn't have a lame duck cricket board and sheep like fans to keep demanding his inclusion like Tendulkar!

Tendulkar is not a fit cricketer., Ricky plays for his country " Personel records are not an interest for Ricky"" & Tendulkar plays for himself.., Even Kumble can play better if he sticks around 20 years as a batsman

Another devotee of DADA .Ganguly is a goo player but to call him the greatest captain a little too much .Dravid in hid short stint won the series against England ans WI which Sourav did not.
To say that Sachin plays politic is not right Sourav is the biggest politician aound.His mentor Dalmia was under cloud he denounced him.I am not holding brief for Sachin and its time for him to retire as Sachin fatigue has set in .Wish Good luck to Dhoni the current captain
Wish England to triumph over Australia which is not too difficult and Aussie to come up with a good fight .Individual spells .knocks are welcome as they spice up the game

Actually, Sachin Tendulkar is SLUMDOG MILLIONAIR !!! Naturally, he is more hungry than others.
BEGGERS must have the right to earn more; evenif SURESH RAINA like players sitting outside.
BEGGERS ARE ALWAYS BEGGERS; & you are teaching the Sachin like begger regarding what to do & what not to do.
Afterall any cricketer is more than satisfied after playing 21 years of cricket, but it seems that is not applicable to Sachin, because he had saved himself from playing for the nation. Players who played for nation always take the view to retire earlier to give chance to build the team in better manner. Otherwise, there is no any cricket team who will choose SURESH RAINA out of the playing squad. It is now the time to tell Sachin Tendulkar that
"HE IS NOT NEEDED FOR INDIAN ODIs & TESTS SQUAD"
Keeping logo on helmet of BCCI above INDIA's national flag indicates what are the attitudes of Sachin regarding nation, records, new players & his career as the batsman.
Ganguly labels INDIAN FLAG above BCCI logo. Remaining thing is about MAHARAJA GANGULY is that he is the most successful captain of India with 22 test victories & 94 ODIs victories. He also deserves to be 10th best CAPTAIN IN THE WORLD..

What I think is that Mr. Ramesh Gupta, Anshuman, & Vishwas are telling right things. Also, most important thing is that Saurav Ganguly was the first captain who played well under his own captaincy. All captains before Saurav are just came on the ground to show to other players that they are captain including Sachin Tendulkar. Saurav was the first player who though being captain made lot of captaincy innings & brought India on winning path. The constant thrust of success is the big blessing of Saurav Ganguly to Indian cricket. So, no doubt Saurav Ganguly is the alltime best player of India.
But, in conclusion, I want to tell one most important thing & that is

SAURAV GANGULY & ANIL KUMBLE ALREADY RETIRED FROM THE INTERNATIONAL CRICKET. NOW, THE OTHER OLD GUYS VIZ. SACHIN TENDULKAR, RAHUL DRAVID & VVS LAXMAN MUST HAVE TO TAKE VOLUNTARY RETIREMENT. OTHERWISE, BCCI MUST FIRE / EXPELL THESE OLD AGED GUYS FROM THE TEAM. BECAUSE, INDIA HAVE TO BUILD UP IT'S TEAM FOR WORLD CUP, 2011 FOR WHICH TEAM UNITY OF YOUNGSTERS REQUIRED & NATURALLY, ABOVE DENOTED NOT RETIRED OLD GUYS WILL NOT PLAY IN THE WORLD CUP, 2011.

SO, BETTER WAY FIRE / RETIRE / COMPULSORY VOLUNTARY RETIREMENT SCHEME SHOULD HAVE TO BE GIVEN TO THESE OLD GUYS VIZ. SACHIN TENDULKAR, RAHUL DRAVID & VVS LAXMAN. LOT OF QUALITATIVE PLAYERS MORE THAN ST ARE SITTING OUTSIDE THE INDIAN TEAM.

Sachin Tendulkar is opener in One- Day Internationals & if opener wicket loses in short time span in the final match, then lot of pressure came on others. In essence, they loose the wickets. If all things are known by Sachin then why he is so greedy to play as opener? Why not he is not playing on no. 4 or no. 5 like Yuvraj or Dhoni? SACHIN TENDULKAR was never the best, proof is that ICC ranking & honours., HOW YOU KNOW WELL?.
Vpratapshaha

If there are 5 persons say that sun is rising on east & 1 person is saying on west, then mental hospital is near for 1 person. So, hurry! Book your seat today in the mental hospital.
SACHIN IS NOW AT THE CLEARCUT END OF HIS CAREER. HE MUST HAVE TO RETIRE NOW AT THIS SPOT.

India lost 18 finals of onedayers under the captaincy of DADA & the cause is that sachin tendulkar & ajit agarkar both had not played in these 18 matches. In these matches Sachin has ducks or runs of single figure & ajit agarkar had not taken a single wicket & gave runs above 50 in 10 overs. There is politics played by Sachin even in world cup final also, by which SAURAVDADA can not hold trophy in hands. Actually, that finals are not 11 agaist 11, but 9 (INDIANS) against 13-others. In today’s world nobody played upto 21 years of cricket, so what this old guy wants from playing? Just to create the records, because he never ever played for the team; that’s wellknown truth allover the world.

So it is now the time to tell Sachin Tendulkar that
"HE IS NOT NEEDED FOR INDIAN ODIs & TESTS SQUAD"

Sachin dosent have place in twenty20 or ODI , He no more suitable for these formats. Sachin will not quit until sharad pawar is in BCCI. BCCI chair persons get paid by sachin for every series he plays.

Ponting is the best even Sachin is not such a great player. Records says that Ponting has won more matches from his bat for Aus than Sachin for India. So I like Ponting for his winning ability.

Ponting is a great player but not as Sachin.
He need not to play warne and mcgrath.He is not successful against India and also against Murlitharan.He begun to score after the retirement of Waqar,Acram,Walsh,Ambrose,Donald etc.
So I don't think so.
Seconly he is a part of a great team (Australia)than India so he won more matches.

Congratulations Ponting though as your uncle says you dont care for records .Your contemptous pull shot I enjoy the most .There is anlysis paralysis on this forum or the debate who is the greatest .History would decide who is great but comparisons are odious By simply keep repeating thet Sachin is the greatest it sounds like worn out gramaphone plate .We enjoy good cricket who ever plays that and appreciate good innings who ever plays that with out bothering whether he is great or not

he is just a great player who won 2 wc because he has great team,interm of quality it will be serious joke to compare him wiuth legends like tendulkar and lara.
no greats has ever called him equal to lara or sachin ,why??????

This is not 60s or 70s when Indias fortunes revolved around one or two players .Dont belittle the contribution of other players in the current indian team -dravid ,laxman ganguly Kumble .Your admiration for a person need not lead to denouncing others.Be a wise cricketing fan .Sachin is great player and has an aura but champions are those who rise when chips are down -Laxaman ,Dravid ,Lara ,S Wagh Ponting fall into that category .

valswa, all of them particularly laxman,dravid,perform when sachin give them good start, problem with sachin is his fitness, he is still capable to play big innings,just look back newzealand tour
and one of the odi where sachin ret. hurt when he was 150 odd runs and 15 more overs to go at the time of leaving ground. on the other hand ricki's performance facing down trend after retirement of hayden,gilcrist etc. etc.. sachin once upon a time carry entire indian team on his shoulder and ofcourse in so called dravid's and laxman's presence. steve waugh played some vital innings every now and then, i accept this.

Dear Kapilesh
My point is not belittle others who have contibuted to some of the greatest victories .No body is the best every body is one of the best .We remember the players great in innings when chips are down eg Laxman in Kolkatta against invincible australians ,Lara his epic innings taking WI through again against S Waghs Mighty team leading to improbable test victory .Sachin is great he is one of the pantheon of criket gods There are others .
