Being and

and they make a hell lot of a difference. Sachin started playing much b4 dada, and is still around, still playing so well and more importantly, playing winning knocks for the team. As for dodo, he is cooling his heels in the kitchen...

He goofed up so bad after all tht he achieved. And thts what i hate about him.
Sachya on the other hand has been the marathon fighter! He fought his way back to the top after every failure. No one has ever retained the tag as the world's best batsman as Sachin for so long. I dont know why is he even compared to Lara.

He has surpassed Lara long ago! And even after all the money and fame, what i like the most about him is tht he is so humble! No attitude even though he deserves to have some, being the best in the world!
After today's awesome knock, he was still all praise for Rohit. He didnt say much about his knock. Thts his humbleness!! And thts what makes him special.
Never seen dada praise other younger kids like that at the cost of himself. He was always his usual obnoxious, arrogant self. So full of himself. Ppl used to say tht captains need to have attitude. But attitude only counts when it is backed by performance on the ground.
The younger kids like yuvraj and dhoni need to learn a a lot from Sachin, especially, yuvraj. What he has achieved is not even 10% of sachin's glory, and yet, he is so full of himself. His attitude sucks!
Sachin is a legend and he deserves praise and respect for what he has achieved in a lifetime! It can not be surpassed by any cricketer in the world. Atleast not by any cricketer in the current lot.
