Where is Tendulkar?

Tendulkar mystery still fails to unhold.. He looks pedestrian, ducking and waving at short balls, still strugglin to find the touch that has been eluding him for a while (read 2 years).. Though he still manages to have records, his consistency has gone rocketing down.. he scores a century now and then, but otherwise every score is in single digit, or less than 20... and its not his bat doing the batting, its his mind..
people defend him saying he doesnt know his role.. Thats true.. but thats not a defense..What the hell is the Chappell/Dravid combo doing then?

I believe the reason, Sachin, has not yet been meted out with the Saurav treatment, is for his attitude, being a team player, excellent work ethics, motivation, mentoring, fielding etc.. Not for his batting.. Infact, the people now are not even bothered when he comes in or gets out..

He is merely an add-on to this Indian team at this point of time..
