Even the gods watched in awe today as SACHIN TENDULKAR put them to shame . Coming from me this just shows how great a man he is , because i have been a cricket hater since i was like 10 . Why i hate cricket? Well there are many reasons.....erm its actually just because i suck at cricket . But once you stop considering cricket to be the only way to attain nirvana and realise its just another game , you will see how it dominates everything (im talking about the situation in india) . One begins to wonder why cricket is NOT the national sport of a country where people are ready to kill or be killed to get to meet their idols . I would never have had any problem with all this if the other sports were treated just as equally . I LOVE football , now THATS a sport where you can see all 11 players on the ground at the same time so there is no real excuse to why a team wins or loses , you cant blame the weather, you cant blame the field, you cant blame the lights . And i dont get how Cicket World Cup is hyped to be such a huge thing.....i mean there are like 14 teams or something participating...only 8 of them play cricket regularly....and maybe 4 of them are REALLY strong ....and it decides the best team in the "WORLD". I can go on and on and on and on about why cricket sucks , but right now i bow to arguably the greatest batsman of all time. Sachin Tendulkar. If you are 36 years old and have spent more than half of those years playing cricket at the international level consistently and with a pool of talent SO HUGE that it still gives nightmares to the bowlers , you are great. If on your shoulder rest the hopes of almost 2 billion people , you are legendary. Add to that a rare trait called humbleness, you are a God. And THAT is Sachin Tendulkar.
