Sachin Tendulker, Master of the game

  In India he enjoys a god like status. Great players say he is a batting genius. He is intelligent, his decency and Humility are his watch worths. After 21 years of international cricket, still one of the finest batsman in the world today. He is one of the legends of cricket.
     Eden parl, Auckland, March 1994, On a seaming wicket Sachin Tendulker was promoted as an opener against New Zealand. He made 94 from 49 balls. Its considered as one of the great one day knocks.
    Tendulker will go down in, certainly in Indian history, I think probably Indias Best, there had been so many of them, but he will be the best. This modern Indian genaration, we are privillaged to watch him in television, will result in remembering him for ever. I think its one of those very few great players who started of looking special.
At the age of 14, anybody who saw him can realize that he will be a great player one day. And he didnt let anybody down. Every one has huge expectation when he came to international areana. He fulfilled  all these expectations and he continues to do so even after 21 years.
         Tendulkars technique is the benchmark for modern batsman. Don Bradman believed that  Tendulkar  was the closest thing to himself that he have ever seen. He is the most complete batsman of this era, perhaps of all time. because he scored runs against every country, every ground, every situations all kind of pitches. Thats something we cant say about everybody, even Don Bradman. Tendulkar is considered as the most perfect batsman one has ever seen. His back lift is straight, his balance is unbelievable, he can play of either foot and the ability which separates the men from the boys, the ability to hit a good ball for boundaries and sixes.
      You know you are watching someone special. You know you are watching someone who comes once in  a life time. He has given a new dimension to Indian cricket, we have Sunil Gavaskar, who grind with the bowling and won pride as a world class batsman. But suddenly there was someone who torn all bowling attacks apart. He came to international cricket when India was looking for that kind of hero. I think Tendulkar is the father of modern day cricket.
