Is Cricket bigger or sachin? What we have been trying to prove is that Sachin is Bigger than Cricket. In our eagerness to praise Sachin rather We are vying with each other to DENIGRATE all other Cricketers. What about players like MAKPataudi, Ajit Wadekar, SM Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Saurav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid....the line is long....DID they DESERVE to be sent off the field as they were?....Is Sachin the only Cricketer in India?...Could we not have given a BETTER farewell to other Indian Players?.... AAre we setting up the right precedent?....One RAPE victim is 'NIRBHAYA' - We forget all the others...One child falling in a borewell is 'PRINCE'...we forget all others...One player is Sachin - We forget all others...this is what I call Indian HYPPOCRACY.
Not sure why there is so much of hype around Sachin's retirement, in cricketing circles and media. Probably they are afraid that Sachin might decide to return if he isn't given a grand farewell :-)

sleepless nights due to typical Marathi ATTITUDE as SACHIN lost his father when he was in England tour for 1999 world cup that means the game has taken away right to be with mother when father is lost thanks to BCCI and ICC or Sachin himself to be blamed for not coming to home for funeral of late father as RANBIR KAPOOR show in movie YEH JAWANI HAI DIWANI that busy son does not turn up on fathers death also thanks2 western culture Sachin adapted?

Do you even know the meaning of the word "relevance" or "sense" Pravin. Chances are, NO.
