vinuth	guys have u all noticed that,despite his poor show in wc,articles related to sachin is the most read and the comments that r posted is also max.....this speaks a lot about this man ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 21:16 )
Vivek Mishra	HE IS BACKKKKKKKKKKKKK.......... ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 20:12 )
Ravi Iyer	Sachin is the Greatest batsman ever. Sir Bradman has compared hinself to Sachin. Brain Lara has said sachin is the Best. Ricky Ponting has said Sachin and Lara are the Best! Glenn Mcgrath has said Sachin and Lara are the Best! C''mon India Sachin has made us all so proud. In the last world cup he took us to the finals and his aggreagate score was the highest in the world cup! He still has 3-4 years of great cricket left and is still India''s Number 1 player! Sachin Tendulkar ROCKS! ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 19:47 )
Anurag Gupta	Do whatever you wish Sachin, use a heavy bat use a light bat use a stump if you wish to, but God Oh God!!! shine the way Sun has and Sun can.... ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 19:09 )
Kishore	just wishing GOD to score heavily with the heavy bats and bash all his critics. what irritates one the most is fair-weather fans..say, tomm sachin scores a blistering hundred in a ODI (i am sure he will pretty sson), then all these so called critics will say "GOD IS BACK"....shame on these people who do not know how to respecr a LEGEND ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 18:21 )
Sachins scoring(even if its a double century in ODI) against a minnow like Bangladesh wont silence us critics. It would only silence us if he scores against stronger oppositions like Aus, SA consistently(in atleast 3-4 matches continuously) and in bowler friendly pitches outside subcontinent. Sachin is only good for scoring against minnows now. Next he will play against Ireland and score some more runs but that wont silence us. He is a spent force unless he proves otherwise. ( Posted by Ahmed on Friday , May 04, 2007 at 19:52 )   Well said Kishore. I am in total agreement with you and feel no shame to not concur with so many critics or so called experts who make some nasty comments as a time pass. All these guys who are resorting to not so constructive criticism really don''t look at team india as their own team and be part of it in good and bad times but just look at it as a commodity and the day entertainment value is gone, they will say any thing and every thing.

MB	IBN team, Inspite of Inida''s 1st round exit in worlcup you are just giving masala news.What''s there in Tendulkar''s bat weight..Give meaningfull news RAJDEEP as i admire you. There''s lots more m=news to cover & this is not all a news... ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 18:02 )
mohit	Whatever anyone says YOU ARE AND WILL BE THE BEST THERE IS IN THE WORLD OF CRICKET. Carry on Tendulkar. Go and show what you can do. Jaysuriya came back and so did Hayden. Not playing well after coming back from a serious injury is not a excuse to end your career. Dont let some people discourage you. India needs fans who motivate not discourage. I have never seen Australian people marching on the road when ponting or anyone else doesnt play well for a period of time. Motivation and confidence is required by anyone and everyone. If people starting cursing u or asking you to leave your studies just because someone didnt get good marks in a particular year, half of India will be illiterate. MOTIVATION and CONFIDENCE should be built into our players. ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 17:55 )
Amar	its good to see tendulkar using the old bat it seems that we we will once again see the old sachin ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 17:13 )
Atul P. Vyas	Dear Tendulkar, You have achieved what one can dream for and while the chips are down , naturally the pressure is on for you to deliver .Millions of people look at you as a special cae and when all others dont deliver than though it si strange , there is less hue and cry but for you there is extra fine microscope and it is sad but fact that your performance lately has been on depleted graph. I wish to suggest which you know the best what is to be done but as observer from outside , you ought to play like what Pigeon did in WC by playing freely as if you are retiring and sure that it will be very very pleasant song for all to listen. All the best to you and come out with flying clours in your test during "Tests" ( Posted: Friday , May 04, 2007 at 16:30 )
