With 50 test and more than 75 innings, he has just scored 2500 odd runs. His average is less than 40. I think he is in the team since he is the captain. But as a batsman in test, he has not made any significant contribution. No test saving innings or winning innings in last 2 years. He is easist to get out these days. However he is one of the best in ODI or T20.
I remember an instance when Kapil Dev was admonished and dropped for the next match for playing a rash shot in the New Delhi test. But, times having changed, i am sure that no such action will even be contemplated against Sachin R Tendulkar [ vs. NZ ; Hyderabad ; 14 Nov. 2010 ]
What a horrible shot to attempt when 100 crore and more are waiting for him to make a century. Certainly something Sachin should dwell upon now that so many of his fans will be spending a miserable Children's Day rueing "what could have been"...
Young minds are far more impressionable than the likes of me, i am told.
i am waiting for the day when sehwag is not out on 200 plus on day one and goes on to break lara's record..........coz today he is the one who can do it.........my first wish of tendulkar getting 200 ion ODI is full filled nw its second wish iam waiting to be full filled ..am waiting ,sehwag are u listening.........good luck keep it up.
"For the record, when on 169, India became the first team in the world with a cumulative aggregate of 50, 000 Test runs. And more than half of that belonged to just two players: Tendulkar and Dravid."
I was wondering, only these many runs??? if you add the runs scored by Tendul,dravid, gavaskar, laxman, ganguly, mongia, Kiran more, gambhir, dhoni, kapil, srikanth and Kambli, it easily crosses 50K runs... does that mean that others have been bowled out for DUCKSSSSS throughout... amazing facts
Re: only 50,000 runs HUH....
