On 25th June 1983 a motley group of cricketers did what no one expected off them, they won the holy grail of cricketing world,the world cup. And kick-started a mania for the game in the country of a billion-India. On 15th November 1989 debuted a man who would go on to define what a record meant. That man is Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar. The master batsman since his debut has shouldered the responsibility of an entire nation with remarkable poise and dignity. Matches have been won by India riding on the sheer greatness of 'Kohinoor of India' and after 21 years still do. Given the status of God in this country he has fulfilled each and evry dream of ours. The man with most runs in both forms of the game and standing on the threshold of a near impossible 'Century of Centuries' has achieved everything in his career except what he truly desires- The World Cup! The 2011 WC being hosted by India and with the Indian team for the 1st time ever looking like real contenders to lift the cup has not only raised hopes of all of us but also of the Little Master. For he thoroughly deserves this, a glorious end to a glorious career and the final gem in a crown filled with it. The indian team for once need not play for the fans or pride or themselves or for the country, it needs to play for just one man,one phenomenon-Sachin 10dulkar and help him achieve his ambition..his dream...his destiny!!!
