If sachin wants to play for country and the game . Then he must give away all his endorsement earnings (every rupee) to PM relief fund(not fake charities like Apnalaya)
sara would have got the name by taking the first two letters of sachin ramesh. may be arjun could be the choice of anjali...i bet on sara to become a world class woman cricketer and arjun to be a wrestler in olympics..
In today's papers Afridi Paki capt. "Indians are not large hearted" . Afridi do you know Indian Govt. bypassing poor hungry Indians donated Billions of dollors to pak since Indpendance 1947 & in return Pak had attacked India in 1948,1965 , 1971 & your Ex-PM had declared 1000 yrs war with India. Your Presidents had declared 1000 cut policy against India.
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 go

goes on in that mind and heart of his.
He has single handedly lifted 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 when India loses. 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.
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.
It was 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 and they did. This is not just a game, and he is not just a sportsman. Its much more than this. Words fail here..
As Virat rightly said: Tendulkar has carried the burden of nation for 21 years; It was time we carried him.
