Inspirational Story About Sachin

Australian Cricket team were slated to tour India in 1998-99 for a 3 test match and a tri-series. Although the Australians came in with many legends like Steve waugh, Mark taylor, Mark waugh, Ian healy but still there was this one guy in their ranks who had set ripples in the cricketing arena that was shane warne, why u may ask? remember the 1993-94 ashes series the ball(leg break)he bowled to get mike gatting out which later came to be known as the monster leg break.Although our team was always known to be good against the spinners but still this guy shane warne had it in him to bamboozle the indians in front of their home ground.

Prior to the test series australians were scheduled to play a warm up game against mumbai ranji trpohy team at brabournE STADIUM IN MUMBAI KNOW ALSO KNOWN AS THE CRICKET CLUB OF INDIA.Sachin ramesh tendulkar the indian genius was to feature in that game for mumbai.

He knew the threat which warne could pose and hence some 1 month before the australians arrived here he send an sos to laxman shivaramakrishnan the former indian leg spinner turned cricket commentator.Sachin arranged a business class flight fror him from chennai to mumbai so that he could practice against various kinds of leg spinners(Shivarama was a good exponent of the flipper and googly). Sachin used to practice with him for nearly 5-6 hours daily in the mumbai heat for around 20 days before shane warne and his team arrived here. Well they say patience is the key to success and god helps those,those who help themselves" and so it was .


In the warm up game at the cci sachin smashed shane warne and his fellow austarlians and scored a maginificant 204 and the rest they say is history
till date he plays shane warne with ease and who can forget that sandstorm innings and the innings that followed on his birthday at sharjah.


My motive of explaining this story was that practice is the simplest thing which we should focus for instead we move around for other things which never guarantees success and even if it would have given success,it would be short term nature.


So friends its time that whenever we are not gaining motivation always look to sachin tendulkar
