If Cricket Is Religion Sachin Is God

With hundred centuries and over 34000 runs in international cricket Sachin Tendulkar the highest run-getter in both Tests and ODIs is the God of the religion called cricket. His exploits on the field have brought hope and joy to millions of fans. And yet like God he has his set of detractors always willing to remove him from the pedestal. In this revised and updated edition the authors who consider themselves fans and analysts in equal measure follow the career of the cricketing demigod - his advent his peak his fall his resurrection and finally his retirement. They also talk about India's sensational WC 2011 triumph and Tendulkar's decision to retire from international cricket. Armed with irrefutable statistical data which they contextualize and analyse with rigour the authors seek to end all debate on Tendulkar's status as the greatest cricketer of the modern era. They compare him with his peers in both forms of the game and provide the viewpoint of experts players and commentators so that the reader can independently draw conclusions. And if you still don't believe that Sachin is God's gift to the world of cricket well God help you! >If Cricket Is Religion Sachin Is GodSanthanam Vijay - Balasubramanian ShyamHarper Sport9788172238216
