Master Blaster On & Off Field

Hai Friends! I am blogging after a long long time. No specific reasons for that and I don't want to escape by saying that I had no time.The early morning rain and the cool breeze pleased me after the scorching summer of all these days and I am on week off today and hence this blog. Suddenly it striked to me that instead of writing about hard realities I could write about something or someone which or whom everyone relishes. And I decided to write about this man. The man who is darling of millions infact a billion people of Indian republic. The man who belongs to every house in India. The man who has won hearts of everybody including his critics. The man whose words are keenly watched by common as well as high profile politicians . The man who stood the 'test' of time. The man who is far away from his contemporaries in professional as well as personal life. Yes!The man is none other than Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar. Born to a middle class family in Mumbai on 24th April 1973 he rose to stardom or demigod status purely by his talent and hardwork. No one can forget his staying at the crease at Sialkot in the final test of his first test series after having been badly hit on his nose. You are well aware of his records and no can deny his ability to adapt to the situation quickly. When most of critics raised questions about his ability to play in T20 format he silenced them all with his bat in recent IPL by becoming leading run scorer .Apart from all his on field records,which impresses me most is his pious personal life not deviating from Indian culture as we know it.
For his status and his earning he can do whatever he wants and can always defend it. But he sticks to moral values of our culture and so far not caught in any controversy.I think this one thing puts him apart from all other players of his calibre of any sport around the world. Don't forget what Tiger woods said after he was caught in sex scandal-' I thought I have the previlage to do like this after all my hard work '- This was what he had said in his apology. And everyday players act in a nonsense way in the public but not this man. Above all Sachin acts as a binding force of our people. He has no boundaries and every Indian believes that he belongs to him. That is something great. At 37 he still plays for India after all these 20 long years of international cricket. He hopes to win a world cup for India next year and we also do hope. All the best Sachin!
