News and Tendulkar are synonyms

"Life comes a full circle" and this seems to prove right for Sachin Tendulkar at the moment. The year did not start off well for the little master and he had not scored any century in the last 45 matches at that time. Life was’nt in clover but big names are known to rise to occasions and that’s what Sachin has done. Probably he was insouciant. By the time he realized it things had already gone terribly bad. The pressure kept on mounting and he was frantic giving an opportunity to his critics to raise a finger at him.He always knew that he could do it and that is why he preferred to differ to those who wanted him to call it a day. Things have gone his way and he finally comes out of the haze. A lot has happened in the Indian Cricket hitherto. Sachin Tendulkar’s glossy form, Ganguly’s vigourous comeback to the side, India’s dramatic debacle in the worldcup 07, Dravid brief stint as captain and stepping down and MSD superseding Dravid and emphatic win in the Twenty-20 World cup. Sachin Tendulkar’s pyrotechnics seem to occupy space in the news again and the lion roars after a hiatus. But the Indian media and news rely a lot on him; his nervous nineties jinx draws spotlight on him this time round which might not hesitate to follow him to his bedroom as well. What does it mean to be a Tendulkar? Who knows better than him! Dislodged Ganguly’s most talked about resurgence us worth being called ‘An epitome of fortitude’. Guru Greg’s mantra and out of the box strategies reached no where apart from being thrown out of the window after India’s disastrous performance in the world cup which to an extent also became a reason for Ganguly’s comeback to the squad which was an outside chance at one time. The wall could not handle the pressure and ended up banging his head in the brick wall because of media scrutiny. He finally stepped down understanding the nuances of captaincy much closely. The former captain has been rested by the cricket board and this so called rest was again scrutinized finding some space in the news for a while coz there was a lot happening to watch out for than Dravid’s ouster. What else could be better than watching Tendulkar in full.Indian Cricket found a calm and collected captain in Dhoni who led shilly-shally Indian team to the finals of the quickie format getting everything out of it. Indian team is on a song and we all wish we can hum it for quite a while with the musical notes of Tendulkar’s willow and the newly found chorus in MSD and Co.
