  • Sachin Tendulkar Creating Cricketing History with Every Stroke of His Bat
    Sachin Tendulkar Creating cricketing history with every stroke of his bat. Sachin Tendulkar is an Indian cricketer and arguably the most masterful batsmen in international cricketing history. Dubbed the 'Milestone Man', he holds the most amount of records in the game of cricket. He is the only person to have scored a double century (200 runs) in a One Day International (ODI) match, he holds the record for the most runs scored in international test cricket with a tally of over 14,000 runs, and is the first person to score over 10,000 runs in the ODI category. Tendulkar has been awarded many accolades for his excellence in his sport including the Padma Vibhushan, Rajiv Gandhi Khel award and is the only non-civilian to be given the title of Group Captain by the Indian Air Force. Life Tendulkar was born to humble beginnings in Mumbai. His father Ramesh was a Marathi novelist and mother Rajni was an insurance agent. When Sachin attended the MRF Pace Foundation in Chen- nai, a bowling camp headed by Australian pace bowler Dennis Lillee, Sachin was advised to focus on his batting technique instead. Sachin's batting abilities were fine-tuned by his coach Ramakant Achrekar in Mumbai. A famous story about Sachin's training is that Coach Achrekar would put a Re.1 coin on the top of the stumps behind Sachin when he practiced. The bowler who dismissed Sachin would get to keep the coin but Sachin stood his ground for the entire training session he was allowed to keep it for himself.
