sachin is clearly out of form and is really losing it but inzamam, the man who has the most ODI runs after sachin, has been very consistent recently so its possible that he might just chase down sachins record and become the new HIGHEST ODI RUN SCORER.

Maybe he will, or maybe he won't. Really its all about if he's up for the challenge? Just think what a great player of the game he could be if he

A) worked on his fitness, B) sorted out his (VERY) lazy attitude.

Is he still captain? What a bad move that was.

I base my opinion on what i've seen of him play when he came to England, I honestly felt disappointed in his overall play and thought he never inspired the team, rather the opposite in fact.

Since the beginning of 2004, inzamam has been in great form, he has averaged 58 in tests and 46 in ODIs so at this rate he can probably easily chase it down but he is getting a bit old so his career might end very soon.

  Hey no one can break the record of sachin.Inzi might come close to sachin's record,but he cant break the  the record of the master.Currently the master might be out of form but soon he will surely regain the form and again dominate the world of cricket.

Not only is "the master" out of form but the masters' master has been in great form recently. since the beginning of 2005 inzamam has averaged 94.67 in tests and above 50 in ODIs so its quite possible that at this rate inzamam might chase down sachins 13 600. But to be truthful sachin does have time on his side because he is 31 while inzamam is already 35. Then again if sachin doesn't get back into form, eventually he will be dropped from the indian side.

I regard Inzamam highly buy I don't think he will surpass Sachin. Very few cricketers last beyond 35, especially players as notoriously lazy as Inzamam. Furthermore, Sachin will return from injury, even if he only scratches out an extra 500 or so run in 20 matches, it will be enough to keep him at the top, probably forever.

Unless, of course, Gilchrist plays 'til he is 40 or Pietersen/Smith/Sarwan/one of these young guns keep up their form for the next 12 years.
JH Kallis is the only player in history to have 8000 runs, 200 wickets and 100 catches in BOTH forms of the game. Only Sobers (tests) and Jayasuriya (one dayers) have achieved half that feat.

Inzamam is the laziest professional cricketer since Graeme Pollock ! Pollock hated running and nets consisted of 10 minutes of slashing and then back to the bar !      

Both destroyed all forms of bowling with a fantastically high percentage of boundaries. I'm talking past tense here - not that I think Inzy is finished , but at 35 , there's not much time left.

Incidently , looking at the approach and work ethic of the best One Day sides in the world , would Inzy make the starting XI for anyone other than Pakistan?

I'm not sure, Inzamam might be 35, but he's not exactly used up that much energy in his Test career with his laziness so he could have another 5 years or so

Seriously though, he'd have to go some to get up to Sachin's record and I'm not sure he'll be able to do it, especially since Sachin will add to it over time.

Quite right JP , Tendulkar is far from finished. What's the betting that he gets himself into form and gives England a few problems in March !!

i agree. Inzamam is getting old and sachin is only 31 which means that he will sooner or later get back into form and he will still have time to accomplish more and add to his ODI runs.

Tendulkar won't even need to hit top form to keep adding to his lead, as I can't see him ever being dropped, can you? The Indian public wouldn't let it happen!

Yea, i agree, tendulker just can't be dropped cause he's just got too much support and he's accomplished so much that even in bad form no one can even think about dropping him.

but what if tendulkar retires because he can't hit top form. then inzamam might have a big chance of chasing down sachin's 13600. inzamam is already at top form so if tendulkar retires inzamam will chase it down.

That's the only way he can do it. If Tendulkar retires soon, then Inzy could catch up with him. But the fact is that Tendulkar won't have his international career curtailed by the selectors. Injuries, yes, but he won't be dropped.

yea that is true, that tendulkar will not be dropped and if he doesn't have to retire early because of injuries than he will keep on playing then there is no way that inzamam can catch up and beat tendulkar's record.

also, tendulkar is only 31 and inzamam on the other hand is already 35 so tendulkar might suffer from injuries but even after that he will still have time to play international cricket for a while longer. but inzamam is already so old so he only has like 2 or 3 years more left.

hopefully inzamam will bring his game up a bit and make his few years left count. although i dont think he will catch up due to the lead of sachin's runs and his performance is much better than inzamam!

yea, as soon as sachin returned from his elbow injury, he has been in great form and now it's impossible for inzamam to chase down sachins record.
