you r wrong we have been consistently performing well in Tests and ODIs since 2007 and have beaten every team in this planet including ARROGANT AUSTRALIANS IN THEIR OWN HOME
Some people like my friend KIRAN argue that cricket is a team game and Sachin alone can’t lift the Indian cricket team to victory. The other 10 players have equal responsibility. Agreed. Teams play to win and if one player is considered as a great player then he should have the capacity to lift the team at time of crisis and during important matches. Sachin fails to rise during most of the important matches and in my list of great cricketers Sachin’s name won’t be there for sure.
Compare Sachin’s record to that of Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting. Waugh was part of two World Cup winning squads – one as a captain and other as a player. Just recall the innings he played against South Africa during the 1999 World Cup. That is what is called great innings – showing class when the odds are cast highly unfavorable to you. Also take Ricky Ponting – 3 World Cup victories – 2 as captain and 1 as a player. The innings he played against India during the World Cup final is just sufficient to make him great. The grand stage – World Cup final – and he delivered with unbeaten 140. Waugh and Ponting are great cricketers but not Sachin by any yardsticks

140 against India's bowling you mean is world class! Good to see your support for Indian bowlers as a part to blame sachin. Continue with this, our bowlers need your support.
also could not make their apperance even in a single World Cup Final. At least Tendulkar has taken India to the Final.Does that mean that they r ordinary players????
I will consider VVS Laxman to be a greater player than Sachin. What a gem of an innings Laxman played in Calcutta against mighty Australians under pressure to beat them. I can’t remember of an innings of similar class played by Sachin for a long time. Can you?

do not allow comparison between Indian cricketers by vndobhal, we love Sachin and VVS or Dravid etc alike.
what Sachin has achieved in his carrier. Apart from few innings (136 vs Pakistan in Chennai, 135 vs Australia at Sharjah) did he ever guide India to victory in an important match? In World Cup 2003 finals when the whole nation expected a big score from him to beat Australia, he got out in the very first over for four. Again in this World Cup match against Sri Lanka he went out for a duck to a bowler who was massacred by Adam Gilchrist in the World Cup finals.

i think you should see it the other way round. Real pity on Sachin, his 100s get wasted due to our pathetic bowlers, while Ponting's (for example) 20s prove to be match winning due to entire team.

remember the numerous great innings of grant flower and andy flower wasted similarly. So for Lara.
