Sachin Tendulkar asks selectors to take a call on his career

Keeping in mind his consistent failures with the bat, Sachin Tendulkar is reportedly said to have spoken to the selectors about taking a call on his career.

As per the reports, the Little Master spoke with the selectors as they met to decide the team for remaining two Tests against England. The 39-year-old is said to have a separate discussion with chief selector Sandeep Patil on Tuesday. The reports also say that the selectors asked him to continue playing.

Ever since he scored the much-awaited 100th ton against Bangladesh earlier this year, Sachin has not been in the best of form and critics had questioned his footwork in the home Test series India played against NewZealand. He was bowled in most of the innings and clearly lacked confidence.

Tendulkar has been struggling in the ongoing series against England as well. He scored 8 runs in both the innings at Wankhede Stadium, his home ground in the second Test.

The batting stalwart who is eight short of becoming the first cricketer to play 200 Tests, has not reached the three-figure-mark since the Cape Town match against South Africa in January 2011. Since then, he has played 15 Tests, and 28 innings, without a century.

Asia Cup 2014 - SL Vs Pak Final at Mirpur

Somewhere between outright unwinding and serious center, Lahiru Thirimanne drew quality from a position of zen in the Asia Cup last, stroking 101 from 108 to finish a triumph that snapped Sri Lanka's finals curse. He had assistance from Mahela Jayawardene, who decorated his notoriety for being an enormous match entertainer, however it had been a fearsome solitary hand from Lasith Malinga that had given most shape to the triumph. His five wickets for 56 deservedly earned him the Man-of-the-Match honor on a day when no other Sri Lanka bowler took a wicket. Those commitments demonstrated enough to agreeably overcome Fawad Alam's lady hundred, which had been a result of canny aggregation as he and Misbah-ul-Haq started an epic recuperation, then finished in a craze at the demise. That 260 for 5 was in the end accomplished was outstanding, however Sri Lanka surpassed that score with five wickets under control and 22 balls remaining. Pakistan may close they had been n...
