Sachin needs to nurse each one of these young 'uns through their innings, not sure he'll be able to play a particularly explosive role himself.

Random and probably stupid question.

Would Sachin rather win the IPL than India win the T20 World Cup, considering he's not playing in it?

More to the point, I think we underrate how important this tournament is to Indian players.

Sure for some it looks like hit and giggle at times (Steyn season 1, KP season 2) but I think this season has been the most competitive and taken seriously yet.

I wouldn't be surprised if winning this tournament (if Mumbai do) would be one of Sachin's career highlights.

Especially considering his less that stellar record as a captain elsewhere

Sachin said it wasn't about proving a point that he can captain, but surely every human being would like to 'right' a 'wrong'

Somewhere deep down he'd like to hold up that trophy knowing he led from the front.

Mumbai did a lot of bottling under pressure in the first two IPL editions. I don't know how much of that comes down to Sachin's captaincy. He doesn't seem to transmit "calm" under pressure. Captaincy is something that just isn't a natural fit with his on-field personality.

He's batting well, though.
