He signed a 4 year contract with Adidas as he feels he can play that long......

Watching it now, the guy is unreal. I thought (for some reason) he was slowing down, but they showed his recent scores and he is more prolific than ever!

Must be his new adidas bat - with the form he is showing there is no reasons why he cant go on for at least another 2/3 years (adidas must be loving all the exposure theyr'e getting from the little master)

The guys a machine and could go on forever. Perhaps we could see him in the next 30 years hobbling out to the crease with a zimmer-frame and still smash the quickest bowlers around the park!!

He doesn't get runs as quickly as Sehwag, so often Tendular looks slow in scoring. But only Smith and Gail (on a good day) would NOT look slow compared with Sehwag!! But how perfect are some of Tendulkars shots?  8)
Every 50 years or so, a batsman comes along who is a class above every other in that era! It was Bradman last century. This century, it's Tendulkar! I'm a bit disappointed that Tendulkars parents didn't move to the UK when he was a teenager, so that he could play for England!!!  ;)

Tendulkar is a god. He's scored so many runs for so many years.

A true great.

Tendulkar is a genius and the best since Bradman.

According to Gavaskar and a few other Indian commentators, Sachin may play on, in Test cricket, until he's 42!!!

Tendulkar is a wonderful player, but I think that if Ponting wasn't saddled with the captaincy of Australia he could be as good. 47 test match hundreds is amazing.

It could happen, he still has the desire and determination to get 100+ international hundreds!

Matter of opinion Buzz.

Ponting had the fortune of being on the same side as McGrath and Warne. How would he have coped against them?

Tendulkar has a fantastic record vs Australia and has regularly brought Warne to his knees.
