Answer to the question raised is a big NO. The stats show he's performed well amongst Indian Batsmen, and also amongst the batsmen from around the world. He is going thru a lean patch that has lasted a long time. But dropping him will not solve India's problems.... I am a huge fan of Sachin, and like CC said I want him to get runs every game, but I know Im asking too much but what i can say is he should be a key player to watch during the WC. More scintillating innings like the one against Pakis in the last WC .... Oh, how i miss watching cricket !
