The God Loves… (Part – 1)




Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar, the God of the Pitch as he is called likes many other things which are hidden or even unheard. Unraveling the box of ‘likes’ of Sachin, quite a lot of things were found.

More than two decades in cricket, fetched him lot of winning moments, wrath, rivals and millions of friends and fans. The story of how he entered into the game, what made him a superstar, his records (created and broken) is all sound everywhere. What on earth does he like in his career?

The engine begins [lubrication required]…

Sachin considers few players as the best and can never be paralleled or matched – one such player is from the Kiwi team, the ‘spec’tacular player Daniel Vettori. Sachin considers him to be the most remarkable bowler. Vettori, holds a significant role as a Captain, though New Zealand puts up a good fight rarely, this player would be certainly in the wish list – ‘Dream Team’ of Tendulkar.

The veterans are always saluted; similarly Waugh and Lara became the dwellers of the peak in the heart of the Little Master. He adores them for their experience, perfection and abilities. Surprisingly Shoaib Akhtar is also in the list of admirable bowlers. Akhtar, aggressive bowler is in the favorite list of Shahrukh Khan too.

When Sach calls a player ‘The Best’ then there must be something hiding, more than the game, the persona would matter the most. Wasim and Waqar are right up there in the ‘best in the world’ chair in his heart.

Always need not be Bradman, who is loved by all. For Sachin it is Wasim Akram who he admires the most. His first knee pads were given by Gavaskar which he used in his first match. Sentiments attached to Kumble, Kambli and Gavaskar makes Sachin pick them as his best mates.

Just not cricket he loves; he is a hard-core fan of John McEnroe. In fact he was nicked as ‘Mac’ because of his funky styles which emulated John’s. His sweatbands, headbands and jerseys, on top of it Sachin’s long hair!

The ‘like list’ of Sachin continues…

Author:

Hello folks! I am Bharathi Murali, 20, a Chemical Engineering student who always look at journalists or journalism students with a little jealousy in my eyes. I belong to Coimbatore now put up in Chennai. Besides writing, blogging I like traveling (on my bike), photography and silence. I have strong belief in philosophy. With regard to sports I just love watching them on TV when it comes to playing them I have tried to play most of the Indian sports with shallow knowledge in each. I am also a part of the University Basketball team and guess more than scoring I take care of defence better and well known for the fouls that I generally commit! I blog at www.thebhavachakra.blogspot.com. In one line I have always admired Bhagat Singh more than Gandhi, I support radicalism!
