should sachin retire, as shane warne did with respect n elegance .....???

YES Sachin sould retire from both the form of cricket immediately...i m abig fan of him but cant his failure everyday...hardly he gets any runs...its impossible for india to win the world cup and players like sachin will thrown out of the team...

No sachin should not retire from Cricket now. he has much cricket in him . he should make records which no one should break it in future in any time. he is the best batsmen in this world. I think he should play 2011 world cup also. lara is playing at his 37 years. in similar sachin should play till he think he is fit.

I dont think he should retire, he may not be in his peak but he can still bat well enough to stay in the team. What he needs is some mental stability and consistent perormance.

whaaat:O u r a sachin tendulkar:O u dont look though lolz, yes u r very right in ur analysis, I too think that sachin should retire now, he rarely plays good knocks now, peraps the year 2006 was his worst

While his retirement talk is debatable, one is for sure. He must be given a pep talk from BCCI or the coach on his performance in the just concluded SA tour. He has not come to the team's rescue in quite a long time, and that doesn't auger well for the team. He must realize that people struggle for a place in the Indian team and that no one can be guaranteed a place in the side just because he has a good record.

Sachin is only 33 now, and lots of cricket is left with him. Scoring seventy odd international century is not the task of an ordinary cricket player, so, he is a genius. And let the genius decide what he wants to do with his career. I think Tendulkar will not play a single game if he thinks he is not fit for playing cricket anymore. It is sad to see such discussions are floated nowadays. People can make remarks like "dropping" or "throwing out" a man whose contribution towards the game of cricket, as well as towards Indian cricket is immeasurable. Even some former Indian Cricketers point out to his retirement. This is such unfortunate situation for a man whose contribution to Indian Cricket seems to be endless. Not only that Sachin is the best batsman in the world, he is a great mentor from whom the youngsters like Sehwah, Jaffar, Yubraj have to learn a lot. Presence of Sachin presses the panic button of the opponent and when Sachin hits a ball to cross boundary line, it looks batting so simple. Anyway, there are good and bad times in a cricketer's life cycle. We have seen former Cricket mestro like great Gavaskar to score series of zeros in subsequent matches, and, when we talk about Sachin's form, he scores atleast something even when he is in his worst form. So, Sachin is our strong point and a gift of Cricket God for this Cricket-crazy nation. If he can continue, we expect to see him atleast till 2011 WC, by that time he will be 37.

no this is not the right time for his retirement ,indian team is in the stage of budding up,at this some one senior is needed to take care of the team appraisal also it willl help for the coming worldcup in 2007

yes i would like him to retire in style but its still not the time now a days he starts and look set for a big scores but gets out after doing all the hard work i think there is lot of cricket left in him may be he should retire after the world cup since he has the ability to bounce back in form in the wold cup

this is the time for sachin to retire when he should do what mcgreath and shane warne has done with pride and dignity and dont wait till expulsion

Nopes... no ways. He is still our best batsman with the greatest technique. Even a 90% fit Sachin is better than most current indian bastmen. With Rahul Dravid going through such a bad phase in his career... the retirement of Sachin Tendulkar from international cricket will further slide the progress of the indian Cricket team. Sachin Tendulkar should only retire from international cricket if india wins the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 in the West Indies and Sachin is named 'Player of the Tournament'

Eventhough Im not india, I still think he is great batsman. I like him alot. He is still fit. In my opinion, he can still play for another 4 or 5 years. He must be in team there because he is an old bird. He can help the other youngsters. Indian team is not doing well these days. It needs players like Sachin.

No9t nownot ever ...not at this time when india is ain its darkest hour..it needs a shining light like that of tendulkar~!!

ya i agree wit u....his presence r absence doesn mak any diff in the team nw....

well persoanlly i think Sachins still gto few good yrs left in him..n m sure hw ll retire on his own wid dignity rather than hang on till hes ripped off the team..also i suppose he need to score few more centuries n make it harder for the Punter[ricky pontin ], n other to catch up him in century makin....hes one of the all time greatest if not THE greatest.

sachin has about 3 to 4 yrs of cricket left in him and he shudnt retire now

this was the question that rose in my mind also...after watching sachin's perforamance in the the 2 innings of the last test match....its not that he is done....but u know instead of forcing himself....that would be really better....doubts r rising whether he is the amster blaster sachin...who worried shane in his dreams.....!kya hua sachin...kuch karo na......des aur fans ke liye...!

hmmm speaking bout shane the great warne and his buddies retiring... well look at shane warne he is old on his skin though not in skills but stil been a part of world cup for 3tyms.scored too many test wickets as a record man he was already tired earlier and he made a comeback again later but sachin..the fluency in his game is better than any free flowing river who wont agree?? he is still not tired and u talking bout him re-tiring??

I think Sachin Tendulkar should retire with respect n elegance , but that should be after three or four years.He still has in him what it takes to be a champion cricketer.and with his illustrious carrier , he would get the respect that he deserves irrespective of when he retires...
