If Shoeib thinks Sachin was afraid of his bowling, so let him think so. We cant change nybodys views, especially Pakis. He was a great bowler and savage.
Whenever a Paki. talks ( its media or celb or a person ) the theme is he is brave and we are afraid of them. Their papers used to draw KDev kneeling before Kali-mata in a temple and beg her to cancel the Pak. trip as he was afraid of Imran ,Waqur,Wasim...all 3 were smacked by Sachin,Sehwag,Dravid,Dhoni and Yuvi and Azher...so whats the problem...
Let them bark.
Media use this topic and Diggi Raja etc...and we get drawn into it.
Shahid was great and then couldnt boom boom, can we say he was afraid.
The best way to deal with Pakis and Shoeibs is to be shameless like them, even if Indian muslims side them and loud them...we can silence them as we have have done multiple times.
JUST DISREGARD HIM...DONT PURCHASE HIS BOOK...A NATION, A BUNCH OF PLAYERS NOT RESPECTED BY ANYONE IS VYING FOR RECOGNITION.

Against the 3 greatest fast bowlers of his era, whom he faced in more than one Test series, McGrath, Donald and Akram, Sachin has scored 1719 Test runs at a modest average of 34.3 (compared to his career average of 56).
In ODIs too his record is Terrible against These Three Bowlers.He Played 76 Matches altogether where Wasim Mcgrawth and Donald Play with average of 31 and Only 2 Centuries(Which were in Indian Pitches).

Just Search Rediff (not google)with the Title " Lara is Just Ahead of Sachin" dated 28 April 2007 in which Glen Mcgrath has said Lara was ahead of Sacjin Similarly Akram and Muralitharan Has said the same thing.
End of over 11 (7 runs) New South Wales 52/5 (49 runs required from 54 balls, RR: 4.72, RRR: 5.44) SPD Smith 12* (26b 1x4) KA Pollard 1-0-7-0 BJ Rohrer 10* (13b) Harbhajan Singh 2-0-9-0
"Will there be any complaint against this pitch ? Guess not, since Sachin is not captaining !!" Want to sell a book in India, Don? Still a slip and a short leg in

Moron Bradman Average was over 50 in 1932 Bodyline Series although it was modest according to his level By the way what was Sachin average in the recent England Series which was not bodyline.
Here again we are talking greatness of Sachin (who dont need a praise) we should be admiring Shoib that he made the world's best batsman fear, the problem with Indians is that we can not apprciate anyone else?
We cricket fans are lucky to have born in this era where we could able to see Sachin Tenulkar playing live in front of us. Some of his great deeds on cricket fields given below.
1) Heling India draw a critical test match against Pak in Pak when he is just 16 years.
2)Bowling the last over in Hero Cup final where windies required 6 runs to win, he gave just 3 runs and hepled India win the cup.
3)He is the highest run getter in 1996, 2003 world cups and second highest run getter in 2011 world cup among all the countries who played tehse world cups.
4) Batting heroically in a test match against Engalnd in 2008 at Chennai to win the test chasing about 350 runs in the last innings.
5) Batting majestically in 2003 world cup match against Pak scoring 93 runs and helping India win the match.
6)Batting magnificiently in Sharjah in 1998 against Australia to win the cup there.
7)Batting brillaintly in Australia against Australia in 2008 where his 2 great innings helped India win the cup.
8) Out of his 48 ODI centuries India won 34 times.
9) Out of his 51 test centuries India won 20 times and 20 are draws only 11 times India lost.
Shall we need to say more.. Let us enjoy his game rather than entering into unnecessary arguments!!

Yeah. Bradman too is NOT great as proved by Bodyline series. And thanks for telling that Waqar, Warne and Steyn are schoolboys. ;-)
