The prolonging notions that the cricketing maestro, Sachin Tendulkar should retire or rather should consider restricting his appearance only to certain forms of cricket, is doing the rounds since a long time! And however constant the news and views may be, it's should be a decision left to the sportsman himself.
Though it has been often seen that Tendulkar hasn't been consistent in his performances, it's totally different that it should be something which should provoke the critics and fellow players to MAKE him retire from the game.
And why, certain critics or players seem to agree to this opinion strongly. It's mainly because he hasn't been able to reach that 100th international century, which has been pending for so long.
Regarding the ex-players, who would also have been his teammates during certain periods of time, saying that Sachin has to consider his time in ODIs is over, they should really think about it. Think about another angle to the situation. Tendulkar himself has seen many of his teammates retire. From when he started playing international cricket in 1989 until now, he must have witnessed the retirement of many Indian and international players. Many have been stalwarts, many would have just came and went. And having witnessed all these, it should be very proper for him to judge, as to when his time would come to stop playing.
Till then, let's enjoy the master's game.
