Sachin Tendulkar is God - serene and iconic











Sachin Tendulkar the cricket icon of India, nay the world and one of the greatest batsman ever has decided to call it off....sounds unbelievable, sounds hollow but yet its true.....hounded by a few 'sick' people who couldn't fathom his unattainable success and perhaps a prisoner of his own larger than life image - Sachin has finally decided to bow out of international cricket.
He could have played on for some more time yet had he been left alone by the 'whimpering brigade' who made life impossible and unpleasant for him by passing uncalled for uncharitable remarks - alas that was not to be.....
All great men have ultimately to bow out somewhere down the line but its the manner in which they go which makes all the difference....
Sachin has played his part to perfection inspite of all odds facing his career graph that too in his own Country....I'm sure nobody in his right mind can be against Sachin his records or his playing style, but its only a few hate mongers who started out with him but retired before him or were dropped who made the loudest noises against him - of course in collaboration with some visual media (as usual).
Anyway that's all forgotten and buried now - the master has taken the final bow and that's it.
We can now reflect in his glory and play and replay his innings over and over again, nothing beyond that.

 No more will we able to see the smiling face of Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar come bounding out in full cricketing gear look up once at the sun and take guard for India.....
Yet we can take heart from the fact that he has left behind a legacy in world cricket which would be very difficult to attain let alone surpass....
May Sachin's impression stay on forever and people just continue to adulate him at every step - Cheers!
