Sachin always flops when he is near any big milestone

[Asoka]

Check -To overtake Lara's record for max no of runs and reach 12000 he needed about 7 innings to score 100 runs -His disastrous form at present once he has neared 100 international tons -His endless list of 90s(even though he has played many many matches, his rate of getting out in 90s is alarming) Does Sachin get bogged down by impending milestones. Discuss.

As always he plays for record and can never handle pressure .. The least dependent of player at crunch time ..

[Lurker]

Calling all Sachin-bhakts, specially Sach-Dan and the likes, to show up and start hurling abuses as if it was my fault the midget got dismissed in single digits again

[Stuge]

how about others ?

[asterix]

Drop him in the next match.. :hitler:

[Kookabura]

Doesn't handle the pressure well. Anyway, his technique has let him down against the moving ball this time. Maybe he needs another stint with Yorkshire.

pffttt.. his 100th century will come in the ODI series

Serously,wtf is going on with sachin?.has he completely lost it?

[Guest Gunner]

Serously' date='wtf is going on with sachin?.has he completely lost it?[/quote'] Time to retire. Age has caught up. I always kept saying this, it was not about fitness, it is in the eye and the reaction speed. Quarter of a second too slow and it is finished. I hope the great man knows it is time to hang up his boots.

You really think he should keep going?

[gaurav92]

See him bounce back in the second innings and bang your heads against the wall.

[Sachinism]

You really think he should keep going?

Dude, are you serious? Put away the bottle!

[gaurav92]

Yes Gunner, come on mate, he was in Top notch form in 2010, its just one ****in series, happens with every Cricketer, I am sure he will be back in the next innings and the rest of this tour.

Yes Gunner' date=' come on mate, he was in Top notch form in 2010, its just one ****in series, happens with every Cricketer, I am sure he will be back in the next innings and the rest of this tour.[/quote'] You guys are missing the point, this is the biggest series he is ever going to play in, there aren't much bigger or better ones to come. If he doesn't score here what are you saving him up for? To score against the mighty Windies in two months? I personally think it is over for the champion batsman of our generation. If he retires at the end of the Aussie series no one will think the worse of him, after all he will be almost 39. How much cricket do you guys think he has left anyway?

How much cricket do you guys think he has left anyway?[/quote'] Nearly every series and every time he goes out to bat is a momentous occasion. Watching him bat over the last year, there is no way he should be retiring. He looks in amazing control, the movements are fluid and timing is as good as always I don't know about the Aus series, maybe if runs dry up, he may decide himself its time to leave. But for now, no calls for retirement

[gaurav92]

Yes another year may be. But I will respect his call on retirement whenever he takes it. And I am sure he will take it at the right time for Indian Cricket. May be somewhere in the middle of the next year.
