Finally the day has arrived to give send off for cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. Since Sachin Tendulkar has given no indications of retiring after playing his 200th Test, the BCCI has made up its mind to ask India's greatest cricketer to retire following his landmark test.
Tendulkar will make his 200th appearance in Test cricket in the coming series against West Indies. The two-Test series against the West Indies in November will be the last one for the cricket god.
His retirement has been the subject of debate for a while, Tendulkar, who has already retired from one-day international cricket, has not been in the best of forms for a while now, failing to score a single century in the past 22 Tests.
It has also been decided exactly who it will be who will convey the message to Sachin. Though the formal decision has not been taken, Sachin's 200th Test is likely to be allotted to Mumbai, his home town.
