Everything about the 37 year old is so amazing. He has succeeded in every walk of life. The only thing he might haven’t achieved is the fact that initially he started off cricket as a bowler, which never worked out for him, since his coach saved him the

of years to dread the other international world class bowlers. All the best to Sachin Tendulkar on his recent milestone of 14,000 test runs and 6 double centuries, and for the promising cricketing years ahead of him.
