We owe a lot to http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Harbhajan-Singh-c61453 – Cricket News Update
Harbhajan Singh, the specialist Indian spinner and stand-in skipper of Mumbai Indians, has lauded the team’s regular captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Chinnadupargea-Sachin-c50607 Tendulkar’s moral support, which he thinks, has enabled them to clinch the first ever Champions League T20 title.
The MI sealed the tournament after beating Royal Challengers Bangalore emphatically in the final game of the tournament on October 9, 2011, at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai.
Bhajji led the team in the absence of Tendulkar, who was on rest for a toe injury that he picked during Team India’s last tour to http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013. It was the spinner’s first chance to lead a team in such a crucial event.
Harbhajan has given the entire credit for this fabulous victory to Sachin, revealing that the Master Blaster helped the players out at every step and perked their morals by sharing his rich experience with them.
Talking to the media today, Harbhajan said, “He was very involved in everything. He is great role model to have in the dressing room. He has led http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 Indians in all four editions of the IPL and everyone close to him knows how dearly he wants to win that
tournament.”
He further told, “He was always supportive and helped guys like http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ambati-Rayudu-c1007 and (Tirumalasetti) Suman in the dressing room. We owe a lot to him.”
The offspinner believes that the dressing room atmosphere played a key role in their triumph as the legendry batsmen was always there to guide the young players.
Just one day before the match, Bhajji disclosed that it was going to be very difficult to play and win the high-profile game without Sachin, and that the team was missing the God of Cricket.
Tendulkar led the MI, his home team, in all of the four Indian Premier League (IPL) editions played so far, but could not bag a single title.
The legendary batsman is the world’s top scorer in both ODI and Test formats of the game. He also has the highest number of International centuries to his name. During more than two decades of his career, he has played 181 Tests and 453 ODIs.
