It was a big relief that the test ended in 3 days.It was totally boring and one-sided.Sachin's contribution was 10 runs and 1 wicket.Except for the great swing bowling of Shami nothing was exciting .The WI bowler's inability to break the 7th wicket partnership irritated even the Indian fans.I don't see any difference in the 2nd test also.Only relief is Sachin will get a farewell with victory.If he can score some runs against Sammy and Permaul that will be much better.

even irritated indian fans????? irritated are indian fans or mallu fans? Better don't watch the next test match...
Sachin Tendulkar will always be one of the best batsman the world has ever produced. At this instance of time, however he is not not in top ten for India. Never knew that selection for test matches was based on sentiments. It is hard to watch an all-time great struggle against bowlers who cannot even tie his shoe-laces. His retirement is pointless anyway. "Retire when people as why and not , why not?"
He will score a '0' in his last and people will hail him how he comapes to Sir Danold Bradman in every respect. Sir also scored a '0'. In CNN-IBN Sardesai and cricket analysts will pose the guest Cricket celebrities... "Did Sachin matched Bradman in every respect ?" The guest would utter a "uhhh ..." They will take it for a "Yes" and there goes the flash news "Cricket Greats hail Sachin is the greatest..." Iam not joking.. Iam serious..

I dont know about some indians but people outside india greatly appreciate this man, for achieving his dreams through countless hours of effort and dedication. Mr ramkoomar try to achieve atleast 5% of what this man has shown and you will appreciate how much stress this person took for undeserving indians
