He has been there for quite long, the today young generation got to their senses, watching sachin playing his game. He is not that old too!. But he came early and now going late.
Whom to accept this from? Well for a person who played cricket, because he wanted to, still he had guts to play with. He played so good, that opposite bowlers loved to ball him, on the other they knew about what they can get in return.
He never responded to any type of comments, made at him. He gave answers to those comments, by using his bat, the heavy one. When world was going the normal days, he came with new shots and techniques that are now buildings blocks of this game.
Surely many will come, but will they be as respected as he is or will be innovators, just like him. He tenure of more than 2 decades, brought a new image of India, in world of sports. But fitness he always kept in place.
Seriously someone has said it right, things like happen once in mankind. Yes records may be broken, but not the memories and also the type of place this guy has made in hearts of people, not only native, but the foreign too. And there is more to it and we will discuss that also.......
