Sachin,The genius...The maestro...The legend...The champion...The master...The blaster..."Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure. Something that allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even those who are gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom. When he goes out to bat, people switch on their television sets and switch off their lives. After 286 one day internationals, 11069 runs and 31 centuries in limited-overs matches, Sachin Tendulkar, the little master blaster from Bombay, has achieved so much at the age of just 29 years.""A willow-wielder gifted with such an exciting co-ordination of brain, eye and foot can make the bat do anything. Sachin Tendulkar is born to greatness. There cannot be any doubt about that after the way he has run cricket writers out of superlatives to describe his exploits. He has established new standards of strokeplay as runs flow majestically from his bat much to the delight of crowds all over the cricketing world. The thrilling display of batsmanship is the kind which is all too rare, and for which cricket is better off in this era of packaged sport to match market expectations. It is this hype that is responsible for the young man's larger-than-life image."
