Vincent AcelingSachin Tendulkar’s Bio
November 6th 2006 11:25
I was doing a bit of surfing on the net and found this great video on Sachin Tendulkar and his career to date, its great watching for any cricket lover. I’m actually one of his biggest fans and follow his career with great intent.
Interesting to note that in the video, Gavaskar another Indian great very much believed that Tendulkar would end up making 15,000 test runs, quoted in 2001. As it stands he has amassed 10469 runs and it’s fair to say he’s probably coming to the end of an exceptional career. I guess the most remarkable aspect of Gavaskar’s comment was that it was very much believable at the time because Tendulkar was at the peak of his powers almost invincible at the batting crease. Since then he has been plagued with injury and played sporadically within the Indian Team.
Be warned the video is quite long (23 mins) although the commentary and the speakers epitomise the type of player he has been over the years.

Starting his international career at the tender age of 16, Tendulkar stole the hearts of every proud Indian.
He still scored 141* against the West Indies after a 17 year onslaught!
In my opinion, the 'little master' has surpassed the expectations layed out for him, and will always have the respect of every cricket-lover.
Respect.
