Imran Khan retired and invested all savings, auction his cricket stuff and invite donation in building cancel hospital for needy. Now he is dedicating life to politics and clean system. Steve Waugh is actively involved in charity for disabled kids all over world including India. McGrath retired and started Mcgrath foundation to help women treating breast cancer. Some became coach and groomed players What did Tendulkar do as social service he did only self service opening lavish restaurants, partner with sanjay narang, built empires and buying 35 luxury cars for himself? What is definition of great? if this is great for people then let be

Social Service? I remember my friend who work in an NGO went to tendaa for donation during victims in tsunami when he was playing in chennai. He said he can't give money and gave his dirty rotten pads and gloves for auction. That NGO still feel Tendulkar is such chindichor that he will even auction his underwear and kacha during his retirement to collect funds

Decline - Just we had Lakshman and Dravid retired - we dont want another senior batsmen retire - Youngsters are good but its the combination of youngsters and seniors that make a good team. Sachin is not on a decline stage but yes lacks match practice -

He is all powerful that he choses to play only selective matches. Hand-Eye co-ordination is inversely proportional to age which did Sachin in currently.

Combination of junior and senior?Who is Zaheer, Sehwag, Dhoni and Raina? Are they not senior? You call sehwag and Zaheer who debuted in 1999 junior. Because of naveen type of mentality indian can never match world intelligence. Sachin is uncle and grandpa and as the chapel asked tendaa is he playing cricket for right reasons? Right reasons means for country.. he is playing for ... we all know

Who is Zaheer, Sehwag, Dhoni and Raina? Zaheer is a bowler, sehwag bats only one way and he cannot be a technical advisor in foregin conditions, Dhoni and Raina both cannot play in foregin conditions and virat with one innings in australia cannot be termed as a great player - Sachin is not required only as a batsmen but also as an experienced player who have a vast experience - I still feel one grandpa can be afforded in a family why not in a Cricket team
