SRT - The Legend

This article was long due and dedicated to Sachin the Legend.
Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar is always been my favourite batsmen. Following his batting very closely since 1988. Since then Indian cricket means Sachin Tendulkar. Opponent used to plan to take only Sachin’s wicket to win match against India. In early 90’s it was known to cricketing fraternity that SRT is extraordinary player and going to break many records. Nowdays we have lot of talented players in Indian team but Sachin’s enigmatic presence is one of the reason for India's rank 1 status in test cricket. All the accolades and the quality of batsman ship is at one side but to keep that stature on a continuous basis for 20 years is achievement which makes him the legend. SRT like player comes once in a century and we are lucky to see him bat .

The double century which he shot against reputed South African attack is a package of all the 20 years of batsman ship which he shown all over the world. 200 runs in a match of 300 balls where two batsmen on a crease at a time is a humungous achievement. His panache stroke play was worth to watch. 147 ball knock consist of 25 boundaries which had all the collection of strokes which he played for number years. His batting display was something like A.R Rahman composing a music with his years of experience.

These days if you watch closely, SRT on 22 yards looks like a saint who has reached nirvana. That calm and composed look under the unruly hair was never before. His strokeplay is always been magnificient but nowdays his composer and movement when he is batting is like a robotic movement. It is like he has created his own x-y-z coordinates in the mind. All the strokes loaded inside his memory system. As the ball pitches at the particular position of the pitch, his reflexes automatically acts and plays the stroke with utmost ease.

He is already Bharat Ratna for us so whether he receives it or not we should not be bothered. We should also not care whether he will be called as Sir Sachin Tendulkar as he is already a master for all us. A truly genious, a class apart uncomparable personality. We are looking forward for more fabulous innings from him which will give us joy, peace and pride. Appetite of all genuine cricket lovers, to see him bat will never end. SRT Rocks!
