~~Sachin the Great~~

Once again its master class innings from the greatest player the game has ever produced, Sachin Tendulkar. Always beating every body's expectations. An innings making history one which is difficult to replicate. Linked the classic moment below.

I was in office when the match was going on,then and there used to get updates from Cricinfo. As the match progressed it got more adventurous,such that bringing the entire cricinfo server down,its one such day cricinfo failed when it mattered most.But it didn't stop us from getting updates from different sites,at the final moments our whole team gathered at a place regularly getting updates about the match.We were all set waiting to celebrate when Sachin had reached199 but last one run took sometime to come.Never we had abused an Indian player for hitting 4's and 6's but Dhoni got it from our gang for not giving strike to Sachin.Finally it took Amla's heroic save to get strike to Sachin and rest is history. Once such day the whole nation joined to celebrate!!

His name should be changed to "Sachin 2TON Dulkar" :)

Amazing man, indeed!
