Sachin is still bringing revenue for BCCI. 18 sponsor and endoresements is only second highest to MSD. As per BCCI a player is valued and retained not by performance but by the revenue he brings to the board. It just simply doesn't apply to Indian cricket. The day sponsor pull their contracts, Rajeev Shukla and Pawar himself will kick Sachin out. Unless then he won't retire himself nor will selectors kick him out. Tenda will continue to play IPL at any cost and welcome more sponso
1. Sachin is too old to play test Cricket. Has no strength and stamina to strike the ball. No eye sight. Gets bowled.
2. Shewag hides injury. Hamstring problem persists with him. Can field only slips. Cannot chase the ball and field smartly.
3. Yuvi recently returned after Cancer ailment. Chemotheraphy will make the person weak. He can play Test Cricket only after 2 or 3 years. It is to early to pick him in Test squad.
4. Bhajji is neither a spinner nor a batsman now. His era is over.
5. Dhoni .. Well not a Test player. His technique is horrible.
Compare the above with English players:
1. Cook .. Tall, well built, quick reflexes, despite being Captain, bats with effortless ease.
2. Compton .. Improving match after match.
3. KP: .. Stuck purple patch. Our spinners are not match for him.
4. Prior .. Can bat with tail and prolong the innings. Unfortunately in the last innings run out. However, he would have insured Englands innings victory.
5. Look at his hands and eyes and physique. Indian spinners looks like mosquitoes before him.
6. Swann .. World Class bowler, who can bat well.
7. Broad .. good all rounder. One bad game. Can come back.
8. If India goes for pace wicket, they will not be knowing how to face Anderson and Broad.
9. Bell will come back and will be rearing to go. Good test player and fielder at Extra Cover.
10. Trot will come back to form.
So England winning the series 3-1 is on the Cards.

OK with all your positive remarks about English players why they suffered humiliating defeat in Ahmadabad? You did not see Sehwag's injury when he scored hundred plus. You did not see Pujara's unbeaten double hundred & fifty in that Test or the Century in the second test. You did not see Oza's wonderful bowling taking nine wickets nor you saw Ashwin's 76 & 5 wicket haul in first Test. sorry to say you are influenced by only white skin not by talent.

England just arrived at Ahmedabad. They learnt quickly. Our Captain despite winning 1st Test Match, wanted a square turner from first day onwards. That reveals his lack of confidence in himself and the team as a whole. Since they fielded for nearly 10 hrs in Ahd at a stretch, they wanted square turners and finish off the match in two days and wanted to go back to Star Hotel and have massage. It all backfired so badly that now the confidence of Indians have totally lost.
Dont compare Poojara with other players in the Team. Shewag century is full of chances.

good comment but why dhoni is captain? he should be kicked out and all indian fan parsing dhoni as he won two world cups but in front of dada (s.ganguly) he is zero .why indian captain (dhoni) inspect the pitch any ground of the world he should play that is sportsman spirit how marshall,micheal holding,antiroberts,walsh from west indies they are fast bowler they can demolish in the indian ground to get the wicket why india cannot do it?
IT IS FOR BCCI TO DOWNGRADE SACHIN TO LEVEL OF B GRADE PLAYER BASED ON CRICKETING PERFORMANCE & NOT ON ADVT PERFORMANCE AS HARBHAJAN SINGH. THAT WILL MOTIVATE SACHIN TO ANNOUNCE HIS RETIREMENT.
Has been admirer of Sachin - openly , Sachin also admires Gavaskar .Why Gavaskar not have an open chat with him and then with his cooperation write an article .Why should he advice the Selectors .Not even all of them together have the stature of Sachin - may be really all of them togehter have not scored half the runs Sachin did .They are in AWE of Sachin so they can not speak .Do you remeber the story of RATS and the CAT-Who will tie the Bell? Now Kapil has also joined asking some one else to tie the bell ! what heroes we have !
It is not possible to break records using natural body parts. Most players think it immoral to play with surgery. They should now think again.Sachin has proved that only with artifical hands records can be broken and not using natural hands
SACHIN IS APPEARING AS MEGABLOCK ON INDIAN CRICKET BECAUSE DURING HIS CARRIERS OF 23 YEARS HE TOOK DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY AWAYS A LOT OF YOUNG CRICKETERS CARRIERS SUCH AS VINOD KAMBLI, MOHAMMAD KAIF,RAVINDRA JADEJA, YUSUF PATHAN,AJINKYA RAHANE ETC ETC
