Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar

(A man who redefined Cricket)

         I love my Sachin,my love on Sachin is not just as a cricketer,but also a great personality,a roll model,a genius,an invovator,such a  great humble person,his unbreakable records,his sinciarity on Cricket,his social and charity works for the nation,for the people,and what more we can say…

        When he goes out to bat,people switch on their television and switch off their lives.I have never seen as humble man like him and I don’t expect to see anyone who is more than or above him..Even the person from other team respect him and encourages youngsters of other contries also.The only cricketer applauded all over the world.

      Sachin Tendulkar is the game leading run scorer and centurian in the history about Test and One day international Cricket.He is the only player to score a double centuary in an ODI.Being 5'5,he can smash even the tallest bowlers of the world.Tendulkar has 99 international centuary and over 38,000 carreer runs

 

Hardwork:

          Tendulkar has always believed in hard work not shortcuts. Sachin's coach Achrekar would put a one rupee coin on the top of the stumps,and the bowler who dismissed Tendulkar would get the coin.If Tendulkar passed the whole session without getting dismissed,the coach would give him the coin.Tendulkar now considers the 13 coins he won then as some of his most prized possessions.

           Tendulkar said "You want to be on top of your game all the time,and push yourself harder and harder.There is a huge responsibility and it is a great challenge. I love that".

           At the age of 10 he walked to the field at 6 am with a cricket bag  bigger than him for the practice.At the age of 11 he moved with his paternal uncle to get trained in cricket by the most renowned coach Ramakanth Achrekar.

Bad decisions against him:

            Decisions were always against him.Tendulkar is the player who got out maximum numbers of times because of bad or wrong decision by umpire..

     

            Once Tendulkar was on 194* against Pakistan,India declared before Tendulkar reached 200.In meeting with the press that evening,Tendulkar said that,he was disappointed and that the declaration had taken him by surprise.Many formal cricketers commented that Dravid's declaration was in bad taste.

Some unforgettable records:

Thank you sachin..

10.Billions of hearts weep…..on the day when Sachin (GOD) retire.

Indians wish that day never comes. It would be one of the most disappointing days of our life. Ever since Indians started watching cricket, it was Sachin, Sachin & only Sachin who made them feel cricket so special. Sachin is only responsible for making cricket a religion in India. They haven’t experienced watching cricket without Sachin. Whether he was injured/rested, there was always a ray of hope that he comes back to team soon. But after retirement, he will never be backing………..If anyone wants to achieve anything in life, Sachin is the best example for them.

                  JUST imagine that day, when Sachin plays his last game. He comes to bat for the last time, and everybody in the stadium claps & the chants of SACHIN!!! came for the last time after he gets out, while walking back to the pavilion, the entire crowd gives him a stand awaition. Many of them will be in tears, millions of eyes wet watching their hero play for the last time. An era ends. The end of a legend came……..The bond between every generation breaks. Would you miss Sachin a lot? I think most of people would say “YES”. The saddest day of Indian cricket- when genius retires…LOVE YOU SACHIN!!!
