Sachin Tendulkar and T20 International Cricket

slippy · 27-04-2010, 04:34 PM

At the moment he is the best bastman in the world so why the hell is he not in the India squad for the world twenty 20 world cup. I dont think he has retired from this format, and if he he has the selectors should begging him to play in the world cup 20 20.

Anyone for a thread merge?

The older generation of fans needs to be weaned off him anyway, this is a relatively painless way of doing it.

Will be nice to see Gambhir, Sharma, Raina, Uthappa, Murali Vijay etc. come into their own TBH, and the sooner we get used to it, the better.

Chose not to compete in 2007, and hasn't looked back I guess.

We should keep him wrapped in cottonwool and limit his non test appearances to bare minimum till World Cup.

Wouldn't have made it anyway considering he's injured.

He is a free man. Should be grateful to him for still being around and entertaining the world with quality batting.

God doesn't play hit-and-giggles. Not unless he's being paid a million USD, at any rate.

He's scared imo. Would get shown up as the minnow-basher he really is.

Same with Ponting.

Both no good. Much prefer Yuvi, Duss or Afridi - heaps better players, coz they hit da bombs.

LOL
I was so happy Tendulkar skipped this tournament.. Really...he is too good to waste his fitness and energy for T20 cricket...with IPL I can understand..atleast that secures his family's future..

I just want him to preserve his fitness now to score 50 centuries in both forms of the game and a test 300..Its ridiculous he hasnt managed that by now..Even Mark Taylor has a 300..

Keeping tabs on Ponting I guess

Yes, not Tendulkar, but Kumble, Dravid, Ganguly all are better in T20 or any cricket than these guys.

Because without IPL, the great man and his family will be living on the streets, begging for change!

LOL...no they wouldnt be on the streets but his kids will have enough to never have to work for the rest of their lives :P Nothing wrong with ensuring that if you can..
