Sachin Tendulkar today announced his decision to retire from Test cricket after playing his landmark 200th match against the West Indies next month, bringing an end to a glorious career spanning 24 years. In a release issued by BCCI Secretary, Sachin has exclaimed that he has been living this dream toplay for India every day for the last 24 years. There was intense pressure on Tendulkar to bid adieu to Test cricket after a prolonged form slump and particularly with the advent of a number of young players. Tendulkar's 200th Test match is most likely to be held at his home ground in Mumbai from November 14. The BCCI has not yet announced the venues for the two Tests against the West Indies.
