HONOURABLE COMEBACK BY S.R.TENDULKAR


The IRANI TROPHY between the Mumbai eleven& the REST OF INDIA was being staged at Mumbai ,which Is a five day affair,from 6th Feb2013 to 10 th of this month The rest of India who got a chance to bat first, by virtue of Mumbai de coding to field first on Winning the Toss,had made a highly challenging score of 509 runs. Suresh Raina& Murali Vijay posted tons to take the Rest of India to such a huge score In the absence of Ajit Agarkar ,the recular captain of Mumbai,due to injury,Abhishek Nayar was Officiating as the captain. The reply from Mumbai was not all that encouraging .At one stage even a follow-on was threatening Mumbai with most of their top batsmen returned to Pavilion without lifting Mumbai to a good score. At this stage came to the crease the greatest veteran cricketr of India none other than the sweet Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar. Sachin was not only representing his home Team but was seeking re-entry to the Test Squad likely to Be named against the visiting Australians in the final playing Eleven. He had yet another secret mission of establishing yet another record among many other records viz "A cricketer who completed 200 Test Matches in his carrier" Whether Sachin establishes this record or not ,the duty he performed for his Home Team today would be remembered for a very long time to come. He with all his might & cleverness of Batting,lifted his home Team from a possible Follow-on by Posting 140 runs(N/O) on the score board in the able company of Ashok Chavan who made49. MUMBAI FINISHED THEIR FIRST INNINGS WITH A SCORE OF 409 runs & avoided the Follow-on A great tribute to a great Team which had won the Ranji Trophy 44 times. So Sachin has proved once again what Sir Vivian Richards& Rahul Dravid said about him. They had said that Sachin should be left alone to decide about quitting Cricket himself and none should force him to do so. Although Sachin had to decide quitting One Day Internationals with his own decision,now he has Closed the mouth of his critics with his Bat once again. Long live the Greatest cricketer of India Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar!!! SreedharanMundanat 8th February 2013 17-05 hrs(IST)
