ARTICLE FOR ALL SACHIN HATERS

Well guys I am starting this ARTICLE to open the eyes of those haters who always criticise Sachin for being selfish,scoring runs against minnows
like kenya and bangladesh ,failing in pressure situation... I have one
request to each and every fan of Sachin Tendulkar to keep replying to
this t...hread so that this thread always remains in top 5 and latest
threads...It took 3 hrs to type all this and I hope my hard work will
bring smiles and happiness to all the Sachin's Fans,and I would like to
like know what the cricitics have to say about this now.....

FOR THOSE WHO SAY HE IS SELFISH:

1.SELFISH
Well Records are meant to be broken and if Sachin is breaking them critics[haters more rightly] can't digest them..
One of the incidents people mention is regarding his 194 knock against pakistan..some said it was slow knock..agree...d it was a slow knock by Sachin's stature,but if it is compared wid one of the knock wid Dravid...this will not look as bad it seems..
Tendulkar- 194 runs in multan with a strike rate of around 54
Dravid- 217 runs in oval with a strike rate of around 46

I m just taking one example to tell that Dravid's natural game is to hold the one end and let the others to dominate..in multan Sachin changed his gears and holded one end and he let sehwag to dominate..played Rahul's role in that innings. Now this is called team game.. but people call it slow batting and selfish... Sachin always said Team's win is more important than personal landmark..He proved this statement in that very test by taking Moin Khan's wicket off the last ball of the 3rd day..That Ball was beauty!!Wasn't he happy at that moment??? Since Sachin is the most senior player of the team so he can't throw his wicket just to prove critics that he is still a master blaster...[he is still scoring at brisk rate in onedays]..People forget his fast scroing Centuries against world class bowling

169 [201 balls] against South Africa in 1997 at Capetown
92 [120 balls] against West Indies in 1997 at Bridgetown
155 [191 balls] against Australia in 1998 at Chennai
79 [ 85 balls] against Australia in 1998 at Kolkata
100 in 123 balls against NewZealand in 1999 at Wellington[he scored 113 runs in that inning]
155 [183 balls] against South Africa in 2001 in Bloemfontein

There are many other breath taking innings in tests from 10dulkar..can't mention each and every inning here..
But everyone please note this down..Sachin is the Only Batsman in Test Cricket who scored 3 Centuries wid a SIX
179 - 6 off Walsh[I remember it was a hook shot] against WestIndies in 1994 at Nagpur
124 - 6 off Min Patel[off spinner,straight d...own the ground] against England in 1996 at Birmingham
113 - 6 off Wiseman[off spinner,straight down the ground] against Newzealnad in 1999 at Wellington
