plz suggest his replacement if u want him to retire now...we saw the grand performance of Virat Kohli in W:I
"I had 33 Test tons and lots of runs under my belt but I have played for more then 15 years. Any cricketer who played that long would have got as many centuries and the runs I have"
This statement shows that how simple this cricketer is. Eventhough this man is not a God of Cricket, but still stands alone in your heart at the end of the day.

Agree, also, out of 11 team members there are 4 South Africans, 1 Scottsman in the Englad team -- and they call it an English team!!
The consistencey with which this man has bailed India out of trouble from difficult situations time and again is absolutely incredible..Don't know if anyone else could have done it with the same regularity. India needs him to be there to guide the youngsters as and when they are drafted in the Test side.
Without voluntarily retiring from cricket Sachin/Dravid/Gavaskar/Kapil/Ravi Shastri have denied/deprived opportunities to 80% young BC/SC/ST/Minority cricket players.

India has been doing incredibly well in sports currently and for ages. Let's get the reservations rather than based on merit in sports too.
Is that enough or do we need to reserve the first places or gold medals to BC/SC/ST/Minority sportsman too?
Dravid there is no one to match u even though we have legend like sachin and laxman u r the only one still doing the job done. Most of the fans expected for sachins 100 but sachin cant do it. U r the man saved india. We are very proud to have a wall like u.
