Congrats to Sachin on becoming the 1st player to cross the 15,000 run mark. 15,000! thats quite a few runs. Don't know how any batsman is ever going to break that record. ------------- the pessimist sees the glass as half empty, the optimist says it is half full..i say "Who drank my beer?!" |

Yes, looking at what he is doing to the South African attack does seem like he has got a few years of cricket still left in him. ------------- the pessimist sees the glass as half empty, the optimist says it is half full..i say "Who drank my beer?!" |

Before this South africa series I had known that he still have many more superb years to offer. As usual the sadiest part is i never get to see him bat live on tv. ------------- August 16th 2009, my team Youth Combine was crowned CHAMPION once more |

| A few years of cricket, yes I agree. What an achievement. The fact that he has been able to play for 18 years and is still playing shows his remarkable strength. Alsoa record of 17 century stand withGanguly shows their strong understanding. |

It's true that the clock is ticking down until his retirement but I think that he's still got a few years in him. ------------- Minn hugur er minn sverš (My mind is my sword) |

You haven't even seen Bradman much more for W.G and how do you know he doesn't compare to them? ------------- In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage. |

I don't compare a guy i never seen before though.
I only talk on players i have seen play matches.
I am looking forward to seeing him cross the 50 ton mark. ------------- August 16th 2009, my team Youth Combine was crowned CHAMPION once more |

I remember a cricketer that has a few years of cricket still left in him but the selectors caused him to retire.....  I don't think the Indian selectors are that stupid though to make such a great player retire when it's not his time. It's not easy to say good bye to players like Sachin.  ------------- |

Well done Sachin.
Only an Indian could get so many runs. They play so many games. But Sachin is a pure great. The modern version of Bradman [According to the man himself RIP] ------------- See you later Gilly! Thanks for the memories! |

What a little genius. Nobody will ever break that 15 000 ODI run record, never. I wonder how those idiots feel about him retiring now huh

I said Sachin should retired long time, thats because he was having bad time and had injury at that time. By the way who would even hide for that little thing??? I left because I got addicted of something else  ------------- . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . |

And I can't believe you got addicted to it more than Cricket! Anyways, Sachin is playing cricket for 17 years. Hardly much modern player who has done that and still has about 3 years left in them. With the amount of games playing though, someone might get there but he has to be as special as the little master to do it! It will be a real hard task for someone to break that. ------------- In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage. |

how many test runs has dravid got????? i know he must be close to 15,000 as he has 10300 ODIs ------------- Flavia et Cornelia sedebat sub arbore!!! Oh My goodness!! Sitting under a tree! |

I belive Michael Clarke has the ability and time to go pass Sachin in both forms of the game!!
Dravid is still some more than 500 runs short of 10000 test runs ------------- http://thecricketinsight.blogspot.com/ |

you are too biased towards your own nation garrywarne. ODI's are definitely not a game of fun. They may not be considered in the same class of tests but still quite respectable. You should respect the man for his achievement. |

With respect , it isn't. Whether you be talking of Barry , Viv or Sir Gordon , all are worth consideration. In Natal and Hampshire it would be a no-brainer , as it would in Antigua and Somerset and surprisingly it'll be your man who will come a distant second. Throughout the realm of England , there might be greater support for The Don , but Sir Gordon's support would not be insignificant. Yep , I'm sure that , as fine a player as The Don was , there are pockets of this world where he'll have to accept a lesser ranking. ------------- Mental disintegration works for me !! |

If you want to know what fun in cricket is please ask Afridi or Dwayne Smith. Playing great cricket shots and getting 15000 runs ain't fun at all.
I have to agree with you though, that test matches really sees who great a batsman are, but he is a master in that version too.
Ponting is better at the moment but it will end by next year and Tendulkar has been the better lad of the two, India never produce good bowlers but aussie had warnie and Mcgrath for years on the same team with ponting. ------------- August 16th 2009, my team Youth Combine was crowned CHAMPION once more |
