The Enigma called Sachin!

Okay before I start writing this one, let me make you all aware of one fact carved in stone some where on the Rhine Bridge here in Switzerland...I USED TO BE the greatese Sachin Fan on earth...well not any more...it's hard to keep up ;-)
Dont ask me about scores and dont ask me about the composition of the Indian Cricket Team, I have been there...done it all...nowadays...and that means after the World Cup 2007 fiasco...all that I am able to come out with is..what I call the Philosophical blasphemy of Indian Cricket. Why blasphemy?...well who is the God....our very own little master!

These musing are coming out right from the heart, having got in touch with Cricket after so many months...and that too through a Sachin interview on the most unexpected of places...CNN! And I must say...the unexpected encounter wasnt really very endearing...

Some guy called Nishant Sharma...asking these overtly belaboured questions once again....how have u changed over the years...what is your roll in the team...you have started getting out in the nineties again.....bla bla bla bla....

and our God goes on like a taperecorder....in his own (very imitable) style...yeah I have changed...age is a factor...everything in life changes...Team comes first...bla bla bla bla...

I cant bear it....F word is what comes out before the remote comes into action and there is bliss again..the mayhem is gone!!

I feel like I have been in a Coma for the last five years!

Shut Up....Play the game...
