3 things Sachin is planning before Retiring


Great first half of 2k9 for cricket lovers- high drama IPL then the T20 wc. A spectacular performance by Indian players in IPL and a forgettable one in the WC. Looking through the squad of the ODI team, Dravid and Sachin are the most aged players in the squad. Does any Indian player ever think of retiring. Over the last few years, with the Ganguly's on and off saga and the occasional ommision of Dravid, it leaves Sachin next on the cards. Shanie, Waugh, Gilchrist etc. all gave a conference announcing their retirement and we all cheered and congratulated them. When will it happen in India. People just don't even think about relaxing and sitting at home. Try, try and try again until the board throws you out. Maybe Sachin still has a lot of ambitions and goals...unfinished business. Top 3 things he might be planning before retiring-

3. Join the t20 team - after the dismal performance, this could be the best opportunity. After the show by Matt and Adam, the Indian board is already considering recall of the '83 players. Sachin maybe just licking his fingers right now as he looks on the team squad.

2. 60th wedding - there is a ritual/ceremony in parts of South India, where a couple celebrates the wedding when the man reaches 60 years of age. Although, here Sach doesnt have to wait till HIS 60, what better way to celebrate than at the Lords.

1. Bollywood - he's probably got bored of all the ads of bat slashing and secret energies. He's got to try a hit at the box office, atleast a cameo. He can work together with Aamir Khan for the 'Chhakka de India'.


disclaimer: just for fun...and Sachin IS the best cricketer and a living legend so far.
