Sachin Tendulkar’s retirement from one-day cricket on Sunday has brought the curtains down on a glorious cricketing career that extended over 23 memorable years during which he set numerous batting records.
Sachin’s retirement will bring to an end the era of the old crop of players who were instrumental in taking the Indian cricket team to its pinnacle of success.
He is certainly one of the greatest batsmen of the present generation. His contribution to Indian cricket is unmatchable and immense. A role model; his retirement is a loss not only to India but also the whole cricketing world. — Mir Gazanfar Ali Zaki, Jeddah.
