Lara to quit international cricket

Re: Lara to quit international cricket

I will greatly miss his batting. A great man indeed. So long, Lara. TENDULKAR TU VI SHARAM KHA HUN

Re: Lara to quit international cricket

hahah he (and his record hungry fan following) is probably licking his lips on the idea of him going past Lara's tests match runs.

^ it’s no use. Try as hard as he might, Ponting (32) with 9368 test and 10336 ODI runs would have the last laugh

Re: Lara to quit international cricket

are lara is what 38
tendulkar is 33

just because tendulkar failed at one world cup everyone asking for him to retire
west indies didnt do anything last world cup, i guess lara should have retired 4 years ago pfffff

anyways, I will remember Lara as a fighter, definitely one of the greatest players in world cricket, too bad he didnt have the fortune of having a world cup title to his name.

Re: Lara to quit international cricket

^ Lara turns 38 on May 2 and Tendulkar turns 34 day after tomorrow i.e he is 4 not 5 years younger than Lara. And to say that Tendu had a bad 2007 WC is an oversimplification of facts. His form has been in decline for 3 years or so (as also noted by Ian Chappell). And it's not just his one-day form. Tendu did nothing of note in Pakistan or SA during his last test series.
