Sachin Tendulkar, Little Master, is one of the legendary batsmen of the world cricket. He has serviced Indian cricket for a long long time with magnificient succes. Curently he is having some injuries and he is recovering pretty well.
I just wanna ask if Sachin Tendulkar comes back for the Srilanka series or may be Champions trophy, then where will he bat??

Sachin has played most of his career as an opener in ODI's. Currently Gautham Gambhir and Virender Sehwag have made a wonderful pair and it's unlikely to distrub them at this time. Suresh Raina is doing very well at no. 3 spot. Yuvraj at no. 4 and Dhoni at no.5. where should sachin bat now?
Will the openers will be disturbed? if not? will Sachin be able to play in middle order as efficiently as an opener??
Give ur comments... its a real big question, because the master blaster has to come back

Well if Sachin comes in, i do not think that the opening pair of Gauti-Viru will be disturbed. The management would then have to decide between Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina . I would go with Suresh Raina as he is in tremendous form.
Whenever Sachin is fit you have to play no matter what. He always make difference to the side. He did the same thing in IPL when he joined Mumbai Indians a little late due to his injury

Sachin is better off if he opens the batting for India in the ODI's, he has never performed well in the middle order, so i would say if sachin has to come back to the team he should again be given the role of an opener, or may be one down in place of Raina. yes it would mean that the current opening pair would be disturbed, thats the only practical option if Sachin were to be included in the indian team!

well see, this type of things are going to happen and we should also understand that this is the best time for gautam gambhir and so we cannot drop him. it will be an injustice for him. shewag has performed well enough not to get dropped. so i think it is better to use sachin in special occasions. let him rest in normal matches and then rotate him with may be shewag or gambhir. you can see that now a days there are lot of matched being played and so the players are getting tired quickly and so he can be rotated with the openers, may be one day sachin will play in place of gambhir and one day in place of shewag so that even they can get some rest and get the energy back. in this was we can expect more cricket from the master blaster and that also quality cricket. and he can also avoid more injuries.

sachin tendulker will play at no 2 spot.bcoz both opener doing well so do not touch them. sachin should play at no. 2 . so that he can make middle order more strong.
