Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar said that persistent criticism for the last one year might have played a part in Sachin Tendulkar's decision to quit ODI cricket. He remarked that it would have been wonderful had he gone to make 50 ODI centuries and retired.
Tendulkar has ensured a prolonged slump during the past one year. On Sunday, he announced that he was retiring from ODI cricket.
Gavaskar said, "He is a person who really cares about Indian cricket. I think whatever he saw, read and heard forced him to make this decision. He is going to finish up on 49 ODI hundreds. It would have been wonderful if he had gone out with 50 centuries to his credit. However, he knows his body well and this might have played a major role in his decision."
