Sachin The Lord!!!!!!!

Sachin Tendulkar has faced immense criticism and pressure throughout his 22-year cricket career for India's losses, yet he continues to perform at an exceptionally high level without showing emotion. The document discusses how Tendulkar has lifted the mood of the nation many times with his performances, but still faces expectations from over a billion people after every match. It argues that while people criticize him easily from the sidelines, they cannot imagine the immense mental and physical struggle Tendulkar has endured, and says it is time for India's team to win the World Cup for Tendulkar and all that he has given to the country.

A note after Ind-SA match.

A must must must read


Remember when you failed an examination. How many people recall that, your class, friends,
relatives? You failed to make it to the IITs or IIMs. Who remembers. How many times have you
had the feeling of being the best in your class, school , university, state….., you failed to get a
visa stamped this quarter…, you missed a promotion this year…, how did it feel when you dad
told you in your early twenties that you are good for nothing…..and now your boss tell you the
same...   You keep introspecting and go into a shell when people most of whom don’t matter a
dime in your life criticize you, back bite you, make fun of you. You are left sad and shattered and
you cry when your own kin scoffs at you. You say I am feeling low today. It takes a lot from us
to come out of these everyday situations and move on. A lot??? really?   Now here’s a man
standing on the third man boundary in the last over of a world cup match. The bowler just has to
bowl sensibly to win this game. What the man at the boundary sees is 4 rank bad bowls bowled
without any sense of focus, planning or regret. India loses, yet again in those circumstances when
he has done just about everything right. He does not cry. Does not show any emotion. Just keeps
his head down and leaves the field. He has seen these failures for 22 years now. And not just his
class, relatives, friends but the whole world has seen these failures. We are too immature to even
imagine what goes on in that mind and heart of his. That’s why I would never want to be Sachin.
True, he has single handedly lifted to moods of this entire nation umpteen number of times. He
has been an inspiration to rise above our mediocrity. Nobody who has ever lifted the willow even
comes close to this man’s genius. His dedication and metal strength is unparallel. This is
specially for those people who would have made fun of him again last night when India lost.
They are people who are mediocre in their own lives. Who just scoff at others to create cheap
fun. Who have lived in a small hole throughout their lives and thought they have seen the oceans.
Think about the man himself. He is 37 years of age. He has been playing almost non stop for 22
years. The way he was running and diving around the field last night would have put 22 year
olds to shame. The way he played the best opening quickies in the world was breathtaking. He
just keeps getting better which is by the way humanly impossible. Its not for nothing that people
call him GOD. But still I don’t want to be in those shoes. We struggle in keeping our
monotonous lives straight, lives which affect a limited number of people. Imagine what would be
the magnitude of the inner struggle for him, pain both mental and physical, tears that have frozen
with time, knees and ankles and every other joint in the body that is either bandaged or needs to
be attended to every night, eyes that don’t sleep before a big game, bats that have scored 99
international tons and still see expectations from a billion people.   And he just converts those
expectations into reality. We watch in awe, feel privileged. Well I think its time that his team
realizes that enough is enough. They have an obligation, not towards their country alone but
towards sachin. They need to win this one for him. Stay assured that he himself will still deliver
and leave no stone unturned to make sure India wins this cup. This is not just a game, and he is
not just a sportsman. Its much more than this. Words fail here.....     God knows who ?
