He is the best Test player and the worst IPL Captain! No offense- his captaincy showed lack of sensible maturity. He made the same mistake in IPL-3, allowing Harbhajan and not Pollard batting at number 3. Is it selfishness or immaturity? He says that he doesn't go for records but does his words speak louder than his actions- Whoops...I think I answered my question!
MI lost the bat as soon as Tendulkar won the toss and decided to bowl.He shud have set a good total for RCB to achieve.Moreover he shud have included Symonds in place of useless Pollard.He didnt do anything with bat or ball in last four matches.
Tendya screwed up royally by opting to bowl, then giving a first over some novice and then not bringing up pollard up the order and now he is blaming his middle order. Is this arrogance or incompetence...only his fans have to tell. I am sad that mi lost, but happy that an inefficient, immatured captain has lost. Its indias luck that this idiot did not lead the national team for long.

t is pity that even after playing under Dhoni for many years Tendulkar has not learn even the basics of Captaincy. Only due to Tendulkar's miserable captaincy Mumbai Indians are not able to win the IPL cup.
Sachin really played well. He did his part as a batsmen well. May be it was time for the MI middle to fire.
Only mistake as a captain Sachin did, in my assessment was, that he should have opted for batting in stead of the fielding. At Chidambaram stadium (Chennai) six times out of seven the teams that had batted first have won in this IPL 4 season. So he should have taken this statistic seriously
He had the too many best players in his team and they could'nt even win convincingly..
So I guess Machine CANNOT LEAD AS A CAPTAIN..
OPENING WITHOUT MAKING FOR GAYLE WAS THE NOVICE MISTAKE MADE BY MACHINE..
Sachin failed as a captain.. Even if MO would. Have one still we cannot ignore some silly mistakes.. everybody knows that pillars CANNOT PLAY SPINNERS... EVERYBODY knows that raddyu was a good 1 down.. everybody knows Sharma is very very unreliable.....
