Sachin Tendulkar has retired from Cricket- Last test match against West Indies- Shane Warne of Australia says Sachin Best Batsman

Sachin Tendulkar has retired from Cricket- Last test match against West Indies- Shane Warne of Australia says Sachin Best Batsman

Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar has retired. A sad day indeed for all his die-hard fans. But he has left a legacy in the sport of Cricket which no one else can match. Don Bradman once said Sachin's batting was similar to his own. The whole world has seen how Sachin used to be a one man army till the late ninetees. Along came Saurav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman and Virendar Sehwag and all hell broke loose for Team India. Team records started changing. Yes Sachin was finally relieved to a certain extent at last. And from this period onwards he started to enjoy his game. A break in the form of injuries blocked Sachin for few years. But he came back, stronger, and once again showed why he is Sachin Tendulkar! Well, as always, there are critics for Sachin as well. They say he never won games for India. But then that is the whole logic for Cricket- its a team game and not an individual game. If Sachin alone was supposed to win matches then why is there the need for the remaining 10 cricketeers? Then they say he played for records. Really? So what you say is Sachin has an uncanny divine or magical power of deciding which record to break before the match begins? Wow! Thats news to me.

They then say he crumbles under pressure because his average in the 4th innings in test matches is very poor. Again you expect him to be the solo cricketer for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th innings, eh? What more can a human being do on the cricket field? In that case hows this for pressure handling- Sachin is the top scorer in 3 ODI World Cups!

Anyway, he has now retired leaving an empty space in the hears of every cricket lover.

All the best Sachin Tendulkar.

And thank you very much for all the entertainment during the 2 decades!!!
