To Hang up His What’s next for Tendulkar? NEW DELHI: Retired sports stars often struggle to build a life away from the game, but for record-breaking cricketer Sachin Tendulkar the transition will be particularly painful. The Indian batsman admitted he never imagined life beyond cricket as he pursued his passion for most of his 40 years-more than half of them as an international player. “All my life, I have had a dream of playing cricket for India. I have been living this dream every day for the last 24 years,” Tendulkar said Thursday as he announced his retirement. “It’s hard for me to imagine a life without playing cricket because it’s all I have ever done since I was 11 years old.” The Mumbai batsman, who said he will retire after playing his 200th Test next month, will at least not have to worry about where his next rupee is coming from. The multi-millionaire is listed by Forbes among the world’s highest-paid sportsper- sons, with annual earnings of $18.6 million — $16.5 million from endorsements and $2.1 mil- lion from cricket-in the financial year that end- ed in June. Tendulkar, who has millions of devoted fans, already serves in India’s parliament, the first active sportsperson to do so. But the vet- eran will almost certainly be offered a job as a commentator, while former cricketers are hop- ing he takes up coaching.

  • Dr. Gokaraju Gangaraju Book
    It gives me immense pleasure to inform that Dr. Gokaraju Gangaraju has done exemplary service to Andhra Cricket Association. I know Dr. Gangaraju and his father and both of them are people of noble heart. They are always keen to serve the society. Recently I inaugurated the picturesque twin grounds at Mulapadu in Krishna District. I also inaugurated the first- ever historical Test match at Visakhapatnam. After taking a look at the grounds and other infrastructure in different districts of A.P, I am thrilled by the dedicated efforts put in by Dr. Gangaraju and his team. I requested Dr. Gangaraju to give a proposal for developing adventure sports on the hillocks of Mulapadu and other sports infrastructure across the State. Top officials of BCCI, recognising his services made him the Vice President of BCCI. I would like to appreciate Dr. Gangaraju, his team of office bearers and members of ACA, who stood by him in all his endeavours in moulding ACA as a role model association in the country. 1 1 I take it as honour to inform that Andhra Cricket Association, under the dynamic leadership of Dr. Gokaraju Gangaraju, has made tremendous progress in terms of development of game and infrastructure across the state of AP. I have been watching Dr. Gangaraju in BCCI meetings. He comes to the meetings with one agenda - to seek facilities to ACA, demand postings for ACA members in sub committees of BCCI and more number of international matches for the association. He always sought the coveted Test status to Dr. Y.S.R.

  • 16, Feb 2017 Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium's Media Box - Where "Cricket Throbbed"
    16, Feb 2017 Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium's Media Box - Where "Cricket Throbbed" When Rajkot was allotted the Test Centre, local news papers, evening tabloids, Gujarati Channels etc. gave abundant coverage and pleased all the sports lovers. Till now Rajkot had witnessed ODIs, T-20s and even IPLmatches , but A Test Match is a different event, a new experience altogether . So, on the opening day atmosphere of first ever Test Match in Rajkot between India vs England from 9th to 13th November 2016 at the stadium was like a carnival !! Two local heroes Cheteshwar Pujara and Ravindra Jadeja's presence in the Indian Xl added flavour to this festive occasion. Ex-cricketers from this region were felicitated before the beginning of this Test match. It was indeed a historical event unfolding on this SCA Ground. However due to demonetisation(a day before the Test), stadium was not fully packed, people’s interest towards Test cricket is on decline but contrary to that the mood in the Media box was quite different! 15 to 20 journalists from England and 30 to 40 journalists who had came from different parts of India made the Media box at Rajkot so vibrant that it gave the message to the cricketing fraternity that ‘Test Cricket’ will throb till such ‘Test Cricket dedicated’ journalists exist ! It was my fourth test as a sports journalist. Earlier I had covered 1983 Ahmedabad’s Opening Test and the last one I covered in 2013 at Mumbai when Sachin Tendulkar played his farewell Test. When ODI reportings are becoming ‘routine’ now a days and T-20 reportings are just like fast food bites, Test Match reporting for me was a thrill.

  • Hero, Celebrity and Icon: Sachin Tendulkar and Indian Public Culture*
    13 PRASHANT KIDAMBI Hero, celebrity and icon: Sachin Tendulkar and Indian public culture* When he completed twenty years in international cricket in November 2009, Sachin Tendulkar reaffi rmed his status as one of the greatest public icons of post-independence India. Ever since his genius was fi rst glimpsed on the maidans of Bombay over two decades ago, Tendulkar has reigned supreme as a sporting idol, his popularity cutting across the boundaries of caste, class, gender, region and religion. Curiously, however, there has been relatively little scholarly scrutiny of the Tendulkar phenomenon and what it might tell us about the changing nature of Indian public culture. This chapter attempts to understand, and account for, Sachin Tendulkar’s enduring hold over the Indian public imagination by exploring three facets of his remarkable career. The fi rst section considers, in historical context, Tendulkar as ‘hero’: someone who displays superlative skills and performs spectacular feats. An analysis of popular sporting fi gures needs to reckon with the ways in which their attributes and accomplishments on the fi eld of play are crucial to their elevation as heroes. However, the analytical prism of the ‘hero’ is insuffi cient in itself in accounting for Tendulkar’s fame. The second section suggests that Tendulkar’s celebrity is an attendant effect of the intensifi ed relationship between cricket, television and money in con- temporary India. At the same time, the immense power and resonance of Tendulkar’s image within Indian society makes him more than a frothy con- fection of the sport–media nexus. The fi nal section argues that as a national icon Tendulkar embodies the aspirations of millions of Indians.
