The present series has proved beyond doubt that Sachin's days are almost over. He has been a great ambassador for cricket but now he msut call it a day. No point spoiling youngster's chances as BCCI is not strong enough to drop Sachin on their own
Sahin missed a golden chance to say goodbye in a stadium, He missed the chance in ODI and will miss again in the test arena too. Retiring from a news conference and a stadium is totally a different feeling. See how Mike hussy, Ricky Ponting played their last matches in a front of their home crowds instead of sitting in their drawing rooms and announcing it through the media
4. Sachin Tendulkar : Team leader 5. Sewag (yes, he is in the middle order) 6. Dhoni (shld gv him one more chance aftr a decent performance in this series) 7. Kholi
Bowlers: Need decent fast bowlers and can't find any. Ashwin (guy needs one more chance overseas though he had a lame performance in England and Australia) Bhuvi Kumar for his swing bowling.

Ashwin never played in England and FYI he has been only one overseas tour so far. Dont vomit as if to write something.

I would insist on to include Bhajji in the team.
He was the pride of the nation, but he is very nearly the shame of the country now! He always came across as a mature person, but why is he being immature now and thinking that he will again be able to be a champion performer at 40? He is still a hero to many, and he needs to call it quits before he turns a "zero" to everybody! He is embarrassing himself, his family & friends, the selection committee, and, of course, all the Indian Cricket fans by hanging in there, trying to prove the critics wrong! He is also harming Indian Cricket by blocking many talented young cricketers! Shame on you, Sachin!

Hello Dreamer or whatever your name is: What exactly is your problem? What are you crowing about? Who gave you the right to decide what Sachin should do?
What exactly is your contribution to Sachin's skills? Were you the ball boy?
If you want to retire from your office, please do so. But don't talk rubbish based on a single series win.
India test team are exactly not world beaters. They dont even have a decent fast bowler or anyone except a few players with overseas experience. So. keep your peace genius

Hey Talisman, Who gave you the rights to talk about Indian Dreamer.. he was just expressing his emotions.. To say people's opinion , you dont have to contribute anything big .. I totally agree with Talis man, i am great fan of sachin, but it is heart breaking to see Nathan sending him to pavillion everytime he walks in .. Basking in his past glory will create bad impression to our National Hero.

yes. Every time sachin walks into bat, we expect a century from him. Is it fair?
Do every one of us are at 100% all the time every day?
Great players need great challenge. Lyon is not exactly a challenge for Sachin and he may be bored to death. But when he is in SA and Steyn is bowling at 150K, the master will be back.

I am not a person who expect him to get a century everytime when he walks in .. i do expect him to finish the match ( if not consecutively, once in a while) .. look even i like him to raise hi bat, finish the match and shake hands with the opponent..

Even a club class class team full of club class bowlers did not let the so called best batsman on earth score even on home pitches. But tendya is a king when it comes to dadar union shivaji park cricket
He looked like a tailender struggling to cope with the bowling, all through the series (except in the very first innings of the series)! It was also a pity to see him "roll" after the ball to the boundary! "Little Master", completely out of sorts, and out of shape!
