Thank You Sachin!

Cricket lover or not, one thing that no Indian can ignore right now is the upcoming retirement of Sachin Tendulkar. Newspapers, blogs, on line articles, special shows, even an otherwise dead Ranji game came alive, felicitation ceremonies… everything possible is being done in the run up to his retirement and everybody seems to want a piece of him.

I’m not going to write much about him as already tons of things are being written all over and I won’t be able to add anything new that the crazy Sachin fans don’t know. All I want to express is a big thank you from an entire generation who grew up watching you play and for whom cricket began and ended with your presence on the crease. A big thank you for all the joys that you gave us while tearing apart oppositions and giving India those memorable wins.

As you take a stand for one final time, hope you recreate the magic of years gone by. You’ll be truly missed.
