dravid was the master of defence,well known as the wall of india just quited due to one phase of bad form.strauss too was an good batsmen wid great track record.captain who brought two ashes victory.the faliure wud always haunt them when they look back at cricket.
Most of you commented on Sachin's retirement.. It would be good to have some age restrictions to play cricket. Sachin is one of the best player in the world, can't be denied by anyone. But thinking of future cricket to have youngsters in the side, there should be something to stop playing non-stop cricket at old age...

It appears that Sachin has his own ''Advisors''. Selection Committe can't 'drop' him for fear of their homes being burnt. This is INDIA and we move on!

sachin is powerful than even bal thackeray...when sachin said mumbai belongs to everyone nobody raised a finger against him...normally bal thackeray gets the support of all mumbaikars when he speaks against people from other states coming to mumbai...but against sachin bal thackeray also could not do anything...
guys like strauss and dravid are emotional jerks they are so dedicated that they leave the game for thier faliure.rahul dravid was playing well but the two tours:the england and australia tour where the oponents found the way through his defence with the help of hot spot softwares.and he just left the game with a memories of failure which will haunt him for the rest of his life.
Strauss too failed to win against aussies n the proteas n he quit cricket.its so sad for these guys to think about cricket in thir near future.but actually they were the winners n the masters of the game!!they ruled the game..and went defeated...!
after fallen solider strauss, it is outspoken swann turn.
Angrez want to fight with the dutchman some other day and play it low for now.
The Angrez recall fallen soldier Strauss in cold war with tactical battle such as use and discard with south-african dutchman Kevin Peitersen. Dont be mistaken, even when there is internal domination battles between ghoras. Internally, the dutch and britz have accord when dealing with third world. it is not like third world traitors and slave who can be bought by ghoras from top to bottom and work against their own kind. Example-indian politics, business, etc.
