Sachin – I salute you
This is all over the newspapers and blogs but I still wanted to salute Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar for scoring his 35th century in Test cricket. I am not really a person who believes in the concept of ‘looking up to anybody’ – but Sachin’s patience on Saturday, 10th December was marvellous. He played amazingly slow at the start of his innings – enough to put anybody to sleep if you were watching it on the TV – but decided not to give away his wicket.
35 centuries in a Test cricket to become the lead century maker – yet another world record – surpassing Sunil Gavaskar’s record is a fantastic achievement. And I WAS THERE at Ferozeshah Kotla to watch the history being created – the first time I watched a match live from the stadium. Needless to say that I felt that there was a result even on the first day of a 5-day test match.
nice one…now even i feel like starting a blog like the one you have now …
