Why Tendulkar must retire now


Recommended Posts

Question is did India miss a trick by being able to try out a new #4 in Indian conditions before the tough SA tour? If SRT had retired' date= maybe a Rayudu or Rahane or Tiwary or Kohli(#4) would have gotten a chance? It is tough for a "new #4" straight away in a SA tour?
You never try #4 bat. You either try opener or middle order bat. People going all banana and making these ludicrous arguments are just weakening their valid argument of Sachin retiring.

Best time for SRT to retire now, 4-0 Test win over Aus. He should have gone out of ODIs on a high after Mumbai World Cup win. He missed it. He retired from ODIs after some random ODI series instead. No one remembers his last ODI match. Imagine if his last ODI was the WC 2011 - wow! He should not miss the Test 4-0 high now. But if he wants to stay on and let the average go lower, then that's his call.
Sachin has never cared for occasions. He can go out of Test matches as silently as he did in ODI's. These theatrics of having a grand farewell on home ground etc are not for him. I believe he is playing more to undo what happened in last 2 years. But probably he is failing to understand that in his attempts, he is doing "more" of so rather than "undoing" But anyways, good to see collective diarrhea of all Sachin haters in single thread.

Yes because if you do not support his non-performance , you become a hater right?

So according to Srini mama Sachin cannot be questioned http://sports.ndtv.com/cricket/news/205378-sachin-is-different-bcci-president-srinivasan?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

If the Board of Control for Cricket in India president N. Srinivasan is to be believed, Sachin Tendulkar's Test future seems to be alive and kicking. Refusing to comment on Tendulkar's under-par form in back-to-back home series against England and Australia, the BCCI chief said: "He is different. Any assessment on India's greatest cricketer will be unfair (at this stage)."

but our crowd wants to see THE God bat more and more...the loudest cheers in the stadium are always reserved for the fall of our 2nd wicket... He should continue to entertain the crowd bcos they want him more and more...
I'm pretty sure you'll hear cheers even if Gavaskar or Kapil Dev come out to bat. It doesn't mean they should still be playing.

It made no sense to cheer for Kohli's wicket when the match could have still gone either way.
