    absolutely Nikita,..holding a stick which weighs less than A bat isnt tough.. he should think abt the nation pride...

    u know ,a weight lifter (who lost his both Legs in A accident) had taken part in the Olympic Torch Relay and savioured evry moment of it, which he'll not forget in his life......

    Evry one knows y sachin opted out of Olympic Torch Relay ,but people listen to their hearts not mind..thtzy evrybody supporting Sachin,..

    Come on people v should sacrifise even our lifes for Our contry&itz Pride

    It's his personal decision

    That(carrying olympic flame) has nothing to do with the country

    It is a matter of pride,but not national pride

    Nowadays, sponsors invite 'stars' who endorse their products to carry the torch

    So the importance is diluting a bit.

    Ravi Shastri carried the Olympic torch in Muscat,this year

    Sachin is a great man and is well respected by the Indians.

    He indeed did a right thing. Its probably his personal choice.

    But he is not doing any wrong to his nationality. He is a true Indian and has contributed to the nation a lot. I consider this contribution even more than national leaders !!!!!

    carrying the Olympic torch has nothing to do with national pride...

    this is a ceremonial obligation for following a particular protocol...

    if you opt out from it on personal reasons... it ts OK...

    For whatever reason, it was his choice & he made it. Personally I'm glad he did because of the problems china has with Tibet. I wouldn't do it either.

    sachin did nothing wrong because he opted out due to his groin injury and not because of any political reasons
