- 1992 World Cup - Excitement at appearing in the first World Cup as a promising youngster only to come down to earth after a not-so-great performance by the team.
- 1996 World Cup - Realized what the Pressure of playing a World Cup at home would feel like. This time, it will be his second at home and he will be all the more wiser. He should be able to transfer the learnings of this Cup to the youngsters in the team so that they can avoid the same traps.
- 1999 World Cup - Emotional venture at the Cup. His performance was impacted by his father's death, though he did well after travelling back to England.
- 2003 World Cup - Individual delight at being the highest run-getter once again, contributing to the team's mission to the final of the Cup. That India faltered at the final hurdle was more heart-breaking than the previous instances.
- 2007 World Cup - Disastrous mission overall. Neither the team nor the players enjoyed the stint.
This edition, it looks like he will play it for the final time most likely. He will play it as one of the senior-most players across all the teams. The pressure on him will be less as the Indian team has many match-winners in their lineup. Still, the burden on one single man will still be enormous.
Will he be lucky this time? What is your view? Will he be able to combine his individual brilliances and his team's mission to be on top on the 2nd of April?

thanks to share about the sachin tendulkar, he is my favorite player and i hope that he will show great performance in the world cup 2011
ICC World Cup 2011le
Sachin???? He is a useless player.
Played over 400 ODI's and only 46 Centuries!!! He should be out of the team WC 2011.
Well that is the thinking of many indians especially in 2008-2009. Some think this way even now. Indians admire 25 paise in other person pocket than Rs 100 in theirs. Funny, yet true.
COUNT ME OUT.
