how i too became one.....


I think i was fifth when india toured zimbabwae and varicella zoster virus invaded my immune system.Chicken pox meant 1 week break from classes.that too it was a week when we had tests so cyano bacteria who i believe is god was very kind.That was the week when i first felt what heroism is.india needed 240 runs to win.so what?But they needed to get those runs in 40 overs to qualify for the finals of the tournament based on the net run rate.

Earlier in the tournament i found what vengeance,counter-attack,dominance meant from the very same person who made us qualify for the finals.And so did henry olanga.

In the same year i witnessed what i would call butchering of spin bowling.The rough created by the australian pace attack was really rough and the greatest spinner to have born on earth warne some may argue pitched all of em on the rough,we all know how he spins em.he was hit i think for 5 sixers against the turn may i add.One of them came to the stand from where i was watching the game.
Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar is my hero.
Immortal hero.
