It is really sad to hear laxman's retirement from international cricket with immediate effect. Though it was pretty much on the cards but still he deserves a lot of respect. During the years that India was no. 1 team in test, it was primarily due to his batting heroics, where he would win matches consistently from almost hopeless situations. After Dravid, Laxman was India's best fighter who quits the game. It will definitely be tough for youngsters to fit into the shoes of these stalwarts.
It has become a habit for the bloggers in this forum that regardless of the title and content of the article they would come and criticise sachin. In my view any players' retirement is in their hands only. If he does not deserve a place he can be dropped including sachin. But for that the scale should be same to measure. Before dropping him one should drop many others in the team who also had failed. I would like to express my views that since there are less supporters seen in this forum it does not mean sachin has lost his popularity. The fact is sachin supporters knew that these people would criticise him for whatever he does and they would not back any logic for their arguments.

Nonsense. If others fail it must be due to inexperience. Sachin cannot trot out this reason. If Sachin, the greedy, leaves the others would get experience.
