Should Sachin retire or not??

Indians are generally never short on views, particulary when it comes to cricket..
Cricket has such a huge fan following in this country.. so much so that it is considered a religion and the cricketers are
treated as demi gods, which they never claim to be... following the early exit by india from the World cup,
there was a huge outcry for a complete overhaul of the
structure back home.. some former players questioned whether senior player like Sachin, Sowrav should make way for younger talent..
this started a huge debate among the cricket fraternity as to when a player should retire? the war of words among former players started playing out through the media..
Ofcourse, in this case, sachin is the best person to decide when he should hang up his boots..
unfortunately for sachin, his body is also letting him down time and again after close to 17 years of international cricket..
Sachin has to decide for himself whether he is capable of contributing to the team effectively..
afterall as die hard fans of the little master, we dont want to see him limping through the last years of his glittering career..
we want him to retire on a high, relive those young years when he played without the burden of responsibility weighing on his shoulders..
. when sachin plays well and india win,, its a day of national celebration.. no other indian in his lifetime
could claim to have brought such unbridled joy to millions of his country men as sachin has done through his wonderful career.
everybody wants sachin to do well, infact we pray for him to do well..
when he fails, its a personal tragedy.. im sure no one will forget the innings he crafted against pakistan in the 2003 WC..
personally, i would like to see sachin recapture the throne of the best batsman in the world in the near future.... im sure a billion indians will agree with me..
spoken as a true indian and an avid fan of the little master.......
