I think Sachin should retire from odis after atleast 6 months, if not now........
like what brian lara n inzamam retires from odi cricket, sachin also shud think on his retirement ...........and he can play test till 2008-09.........but not more than that........
As we take a look at span of time of these 3 legends, we will get idea as sachin must retire now........otherwise in future he might get health problems.......
BRIAN LARA made his international debut in 1990 at the age of 21...and retired in 2007 World Cup.........
INZAMAM-UL-HAQ also made his debut in 1990 at the age of 20...and he also retired in World Cup 2007........
but, SACHIN TENDULKAR made his debut at international level at the age of 16 in 1989...........
So Lara & Inzamam's overall span of time in cricket (in odis) is 17 years........and sachin's span of time also is 17 years (1989-2007)..........
So taking into consideration these statistics, he can't play for a long time now.............forget about playing in next world cup 2011 which will be held in Asia...........but for himself, Sachin should retire...........there is not yet replacement for him in India but indian cricket will get one player like sachin in future....hope so....
He had vast contibution to indian cricket for 17 years.....................because 17 years playing the one game with injuries coming in between - it's not an easy job !!!
so he must retire now...n play test cricket only............that's it !!!
