Sachin Ton-dole-kar.

You can deny it.He blows your mind.21 years later he still does it.
Maybe the rigors of carrying the Indian team alone has taken its toll
on his body.But he still is the master.Occasionally the blaster.
He does not need to be the latter anymore though.We have a dangerous
explosive that is home grown for that.MSD.
But Sachin Tendulkar cant care less.He is like Jamaican rum.
The older the better.
Although that metaphor does not have a leg to stand as he
recently withdrew a lucrative offer to endorse one of its kind.
So I apologize.The novice blogger will have his errors.
But I swear I wont be Mr.Steve Bucknor.
For the last two and half decade he has been the leader of every Indian side that has taken the turf for a tussle.
It has been Sachin and ten others for like forever.
Fans and colleagues wont care who the opposition is.That is because we have God on our side.We have battled by him.And i mean every fan who wants a hundred every time
he enters the field.We pray for him.
We pray that the bowler is bashed around,we don't care about the pitch.
Whether its a coalmine in Delhi or Kanpur or a highway of a pitch in Sydney.
We don't care about the extra bounce the Mcgrath's or
the Donalds used to bounce him out.
We don't care about the field placements.
We want the rare edge to go past the bucket-like hands of the opposition fielders.
We want him to score.
We want the crisp cover drive which he denied in a Test against Australia.
We want him to bat forever and ever.We don't care if he is 50..We want him to play.Like Indiana Jones.Like Rocky Balboa.Like Amitabh Bachchan.We just cant get enough.Sorry if that is undue pressurizing.But the day
he debuted at 16..He made a choice.A promise to every Indian.That he will make us proud.He cant back out now.He must keep on doing what he does best.And even while some think that 50th Test century was enough..
Well you know what..as one his ad says "Impossible is nothing.."
May he achieve the impossible.And that is not just 100 tons.
But more...
