I am from Mumbai, but feels its now time for him to go. If he says that he did not want to retire, till he feels not touching his bat, likes to get up in the morning, even I also feel the same, being a die hard cricket fan, but I would have not held on to the place in the national team, as he feels proud representing the nation, so does Rahane, Tiwari & innumerable across our dear nation. He can very well go to Azad Maidan or any grounds across the suburbs where many individuals old or young play amateur cricket. He can also fulfill his ambition of holding his cricket bat, but I feel there is no way he can block a place in the national side, if he has a self pride, he should now retire like a true Marathi Manoos like Sunil Gavaskar!! Go Sachin Go!!! your time is over in our dear Indian cricket team
he will not retire suo moto bcoz ad companies hv paid him hundreds of crores of rupees. if he is not seen in the playing 11 then that money will b lost. therefore he will stick around until he is keeked on his bumm. it is hi time the bcci kiicks him in the right place and sends him home.

my friend gambhir is no.1 IN odi's and T-20 jUST BAD LUCK HE IS NOT SCORING RAINA IS WORSE HE HAS GOT 17 BTEST MATCHES AS YUVRAJ GOT INJURED... RAINA IS NOT FIT FOR TEST CRICKET..
1) You are 40 not 22, you have reached age where soon you will need reading glasses and seems that to avoid getting bowled you will need batting glasses.. 2) Getting bowled several times on a average balling attack is a sign your reflexes are slowed down. 3) You have not won match when under pressure, very rare events, so anyway it was not expected of you 4) You have hogged enough limelight in media, and you still are greedy for more media light 5) Do you expect people will call praise you with this kind of form, they have started making fun of you, ABHI TOO BUDDHA HO GAYA HAI, you are going though mid-life crises. Your new hair style reflects that.. 6) If you have any humility left invite KOHLI to your house like what Don did, tell world you see himself in KOHLI, that is what is expected at your age. 7) I am almost your age and enjoy playing cricket, but I know my reflexes are not same as they were 10 years ago.. 8) You should sit back, reflect on all your glorious years and RETIRE for GOOD 9) Selectors can't drop you due to your records and media hype. If you were with Aussies they would have dropped you in this series. 10) You can't just wake up and come to play test cricket, decide which one to play and arrive 3 days before match to make show of practice. If you want to play test cricket for years, you need practice, you are not doing basics of cricket because you act like star. You should play Ranji matches so feet start moving
I think the players should be selected based on moving average and not on life long achievements. I would like to know from a cricket lover the scores in the last 20 tests that Tendulkar has played along with the number of times he was out bowled.

Prem, apart from that 146 in SA, only 1 or 2 innings in Aus/Eng was (to some extent) good. Rest are all simplypainintheass.....

Sorry Sachin Tendulkar is not a Chitpavan Brahmin. Not that his cast has anything to do with his performance or non performance please dont quote wrong details.
