(ton) DULKAR
12th march, 2011 was the last time that India’s Cricketing God,
the one and only Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar scored his last elusive 99th
International Century; not that this mark was a record set by some else person
but yet 100 has always been the most miraculous no, leaving behind the rest 99!
Same was the case when the entire nation was pinning for that exclusive
100th international century marked to the Sachin’s credit as if that
was the only one feat that would make
him a wonder; although he has every possible Cricketing Record to his name. Yet
this one was the dream of the nation!
And the dream was burdening enough for this man, who never cared for
records and achievements. All he ever wanted was to serve his nation and play
for the pride of his team like he’s been consistently doing without the
packages of ego and controversy.
Every time that he went out there in the middle of the field with his
cricket blade the entire nation; in fact all of the cricketing world and of
course the large web of Media surrounded him with immense expectations. And yet
even after scoring 99 centuries that one century was sooo difficult to score!
There were more than 6 incidences when the Batting Maestro lost his wicket
right close there in the 80’s and 90’s. And after a whole of 10months without a
century People started writing of the great man. Seniors of the game suggested
him to retire publicly and as usual the man himself said nothing!
He was under immense pressure, has family was also under the same- cuz all
that people were talking about was that one ton which was yet to come and not
the how the 99 came.
But like I mentioned in my last post WE ARE SACH OPTIMISTICS! The drama
was- Which was silently considered as if the Master Blaster’s last series in
ODI he scored that big run! 16th March, 2012 a year and 3 days later
Sachin Tendulkar became the first ever Cricketer in the World to score a
CENTURY OF CENTURIES! Celebrations were instant and the man proved himself yet
again!
CONGRATULATIONS SACHIN!
In a post match interview Sachin mentioned that he felt 50kg’s lighter!
What else could be that burden of 50kg’s than the hopes of a nation, hopes
of people.
And you might have seen how he played the next match against Pakistan!
Flawless and MASTER CLASS!
Probably you already know why SACHIN IS THE GOD OF CRICKET & CRICKET
IS THE RELIGION in my country!
We love Sachin!! Undoubtedly in abundance! And whenever you see him
entering the stadium; no barriers of age, gender or nationality- EVERYONE LOVES
SACHIN!
To me & to many others CRICKET IS SACHIN!
As long is he plays Cricket will be a heart beat! Cuz when he walks out of
the field every heart skips a beat; every heart gets a shock!!
Yet its just one in a million and will always be the one! Though he
remains to be the model of that every kids who plays in the streets and by
lanes of the country!
SACHIN!
SACHIN!
SACHIN!
SACHIN!
