Tendulkar prays for Sai Baba, cancels birthday celebrations
Even as birthdays roll by and the years keep adding, Sachin Tendulkar's passion for cricket simply refuses to die down. Now that he's won the World Cup for India, the genius is batting all the more like a dream much to joy of a billion people if not more.
Just the other day after an IPL game at the Wankhede, Sachin referred to roar of the home crowd as an "addiction" that keeps him going.
The rewards, however, wouldn't have come had he not stretched the physical limits confounding his contemporaries as well as his fans alike. If he has ensured that he remained fit and firing even at 38 now, it's a tribute to his strict fitness regimen.
Call it the desire to excel or his need to meet challenges, Sachin has defied age and injury at every stage of his career. Whenever injuries threatened to stall his career, he pushed his body to the limit, and sometimes even beyond. Even the most threatening of all his injuries - the painful tennis elbow (in 2004) - couldn't break him. He cried out in agony, waited with hope for almost a year, tackled it with determination and ultimately conquered it like only he can.
