Sir Sachin Tendulkar 4

[Rangarajan nambi]

What are you guys talking about. He was the top-scorer in this test.
Everyone is looking listless. The call for his head is mind-numbing. Can't imagine how unbearable it would be for him. Hope he doesn't succumb.

Top scorer . It was more of struggle for survival with no conviction . Now with this knock, even if he fails again, he will pull on for another series . For such a genius and a rare phenomenon, I wish he retires gracefully and not getting booed by everyone. Pity that someone who has scored 100 centuries has to undergo this trauma !

He should ask himself whether the team needs his presence and not just play for his so called passion for the game. Ricky is 2 years younger and could have easily continued for another 2 years but Australian mindset is different . They dont look at it emotionally. Many greats like Steve Waugh, Hayden, Martin, Langer, Gilchrist were all made to retire . We should learn from them on how to deal with great cricketers.

Now Sachin , if he wishes to retire with glory, he will have to perform against a team like South Africa in SA . I dont think it is possible at this stage.
