At least youngstars should get an opportunity , In Australia Manoj Tiwari should get an opportunity.I believe, yes the young lots can do it for india.
Like Gavaskar Sachin should retire now . I strongly believe that lot of corporate interest is not giving Sachin to retire.
I am really surprised why rediff is keeping itself away from reporting 7 updating the audience about ongoing WSH Tournament which stars many national & international players of Hockey Arena...Hockey is our National Game so give some respect to the players who are keeping the game alive...
One think we need to understand is Suresh Raina is not opener like Sachin or Sehway to have 40 to 50 avg. He is 4th or 5th down.. who will have probably 15 to 20 overs to play. In this, 26 is decent average may not be good enough considering the requirement in the tour.

Its not the average dude. Its the manner in which he has been getting out. Bounce and out. Which is all the more baffling because he comes so low down the order.

so average is not important? then why do you look at sachin's averages and say he is good. what about the manner in which sachin gets out?

You need to compare apples to apples. I am comparing Raina to other youngsters not being given opportunities. Please point out news articles where they are saying Sachin is getting out in a particular way. The entire team failed no doubt about that but it seems Raina is getting more opportunities than others.
The problem is having people like Suresh Raina in the team. At least Tendulkar and Sehwag have performed overseas and are not known to have major weaknesses. But Suresh Raina is not fit to play international cricket outside the sub-continent. Better to try out other batsman.
1) Sachin played for his personal records from the beginning at the cost of the team ( ie. the team looses when Sachin is the best performer) 2)Sachin never had champion's attitude 3) had problems against high quality bowling attacks all through his career 4)Values his hindreds more than team chievement 5)Never had any memorable innings. Has gotten only lousy useless knocks. 6)Begged his colleagues to win a world cup as he could not. 7)even after plyaing for over 20 years still does not retire from oneday cricket and does not give opportunities to youngsters. 8) claimed that oneday cricket be stoped and made into a two innigs 25 over game fearing that someone will over take his hundred's tally 9)Throught 90s what was india's performance inspite of a good team and sachin's presence in the team? Only after players such as Sehwag, laxman, dravid, Ganguly came in did india started performing well 10)Sachin has misused the popularity innocent Indians have on him to make his personal records. imagin Sachin playing these knocks in australia, He would have been kicked out of the team long back. Why Sachin is being hailed 1) he is from mumbai 2) There is huge money invested on him by corporates in the form of advertisements who want to promote him ( media promotes him saying he is the greatest player) while he is nowhere close to players such as gavaskar,Viv, Malcolm Marshal, Wasim Akram and many others 3)our corruption friendly country Like people like him
