“Matthew Hayden once said that,"If cricket is a religion in India, then the god of the religion is none other than Sachin Tendulkar".He has never claimed to be a ‘GOD”. Extremely talented,Hard working a genius-He had single – handedly taken care of scoring the runs for the past two decades,every time he steps in the field we expect him to hit a century – not that he asked for the responsibility. What prompted me to scribble this blog is that we have never treated our heroes as they should be. Sachin is no exception to that. He is our all – time hero and known for his exemplary sportsmanship.Yet the so called experts of the game and the media was calling for his head, along with the general public at large.
With his 41st ODI century the Bombay Bomber has shown glimpses of his glorious best as he balzed the ball all over the park. The way that he ran the quick singles for himself and for his partners only showed how committed he is a cricketer still.Atleast this century would silence his critics, this innings of his showed the world what a great champ he is. Personally speaking it was not the scratchy sedate innings that we are used to see sachin play in the recent past.It was full of energy, some of the shots that he played was outstanding reminiscent of the sachin of early days.
It only goes to prove that form is temporary but class is permanent.
Join me to share your feeling or to contradict me on sporting icon of the game that India would any day be proud of……………..
