Sachin Tendulkar is another name of Cricket in India.
He has played maximum number of matches in Test and ODI cricket. He has scored maximum runs and maximum number of centuries in both the main formats of the game.
Still Sachin has not scored a triple century in Test matches, what could be the reason?
Is it because of batting lower down the order at number 4 or because the batsmen at number 1,2 and 3 are very good?
If you think there is any other reason, please share.
Note: Please do not write that he does not have talent, people will laugh at you!

You are absolutely correct, it does not matter whether he scores a triple century or not. He is already more than a legend, being called as "God" in 21st century is itself the best achievement one could ever have. I do agree that Sachin's main aim is to win this world cup for India. More than half of his life he has dedicated to this country. We do love him, but yes, 300 mark is something that as a cricket lover and Sachin's fan, I would like sachin to cross atleast once in his life.
Yes, it does not make any difference in his achievements, a triple century in Sachin's career will be just like a drop of water in an ocean. However, sometimes as Sachin's fan, I do feel that the "God" should have everything that anyone can imagine!!!
It's not my fault to post this discussion here, it is Sachin, everytime we think of something, he does it for us and after 20 years, it has become our habit :)
All the best, Sachin!

Well in Test cricket it is hard to believe that Sachin did not score a triple hundred. Whereas in ODI's Sachin has scored a double hundred which no other player ever has been achieved. The highest test score that Sachin achieved was 248 not out. This shows that Sachin unfortunately did not get enough time to score a triple hundred or it might be batting at number 4 which Sachin likes more than any other place in the team. May be he should try to open the innings with Sehwag and go for it the triple century. It is surprising that player like Sehwag has scored at least twice a triple hundred whereas Dravid, Laxman and Sachin haven't scored at least one triple hundred in their test career till to this date. I feel, either they have not got enough time or they come to bat in tough situations where team India has to defend. Maybe Sachin, should try to play aggressive style like Virender Sehwag and get one triple hundred before he retire. I wish Sachin gets one triple hundred or even 400 hundred which Brain Lara achieved..
