I was really disappointed by the innings he played. He was not really aggressive in this innings. Ravi Shastri, the present Indian Team Manager had said in an interview that if he meets Sachin, he would ask him to enjoy his cricket. Now that he has become the manager, he has the authority to speak to Sachin, but yet there is no major difference to the way Sachin has approached his game.
I have said this to all my friends and i will keep saying this all time. "Sachin is no longer a special player if he doesnt play his normal aggressive game. He is just a very ordinary player when he does that"

Dear, Raja
Sachin tendulkar has done alot for India. Don't forget that. We should understand that he is getting older, you cant expect same aggression from him at this stage. He might not be playing fast as he used to be but yet he is useful, his experience adds to it. We should not over-criticize him in my humble opinion. Moreover a century is a century, does not matter who you are playing against and it not only adds to records of India but also to sachin's tallys. Regards

Sachin has scored a century his 2nd against bangladesh, his 36th century world record. And this century must be special to the master blaster as it has come after world cup debacle and speculations of his returement. Surely this test century took a long time coming and this was a sedate knock on flat track but it shows he is back in form which can only good news for sachin and India. He surely has played lot better knocks esp. against aussies in australia but this knock has it's own significance too.

Its always nice to score a century against any test playing site. Sachin is at the verge of his career, he will accept it. Moreover, the most centuries record in test cricket will again come to India if sachin continues playing like this. He has good competition with Brian Lara and Ricky Ponting for that matter. You asked to compare this century with his others. He played some great innings in the past and this was not one of them, honestly as it came against a weaker attack and opposition. He himself knows it, but century is an achievment and should be appreciated. Happy Discussions.
