I am one of the few thousands of non-resident Indians living down under in New Zealand. I write to chronicle my days since 2006.
It is a pleasure to watch Sachin batting - even in the nets!
It seems he comes with a plan as he starts his session. He misses one or two; pushes himself to focus more. Requests the net-bowler to pitch em up more on the off.
Asks the bowler what his field is. Then he taps away his singles and twos and keeps a mental score.
Sachin - we'll miss you at the Basin.
As a nice sidelight of the 2009 India tour, read this story:
1. An optimist sees the World as a beautiful place...
While
A pessimist fears it might be true!
2. To be creative you need to be allowed the freedom to go
with your gut feeling and express it - James Laverty
3. I bear no grudges. I have a mind that retains nothing - Bette Milder
