Well, lets just take match on its face value instead of deliberating upon the scenarios where Sachin could bat again. He has done what he could. I would rather take 74 in his last innings, instead of may be an early dismissal in second innings. So let's enjoy the match and say a happy good bye to Sachin.!!B Y E ! BY E ! GOD we are thankful we got like you a good champ

all for sachin
