"Sir" Tendulkar...
SACHIN’S OUTSWINGERS The SCG in Sydney is Sachin’s favourite ground. He has scored three hundreds there. Tendulkar has an elephantine
memory. He remembers every Test dismissal of his, and the bowler who dismissed him Did you know Sachin enjoys dunking his glucose biscuits into his tea before eating them? Sachin once refused to shoot for a soft drink ad in which he was asked to smash cricket balls with a fly swatter. He told film-maker Prahlad Kakkar, ‘‘I can’t do that. It will make me greater than the game.’’ The ad was modified: he hit the balls with a stump instead! Sachin was without a bat contract during the 1996 World Cup, where he emerged the highest run-getter. A famous tyre company promptly signed him up after that
Just have look at the records held by Sachin Tendulkar. No wonder why British Prime Minister is suggesting him for the honor of Sir .........
