Today history was made in Cricket. Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendular became the world’s fisrt cricketer to score 200 hundred runs in a one day international when he made exactly 200 (not out) against South Africa at Gwalior in a 50 over match.
This is is his 46th century (100 runs) in ODIs to go with his 47 centuries in test cricket. That is 93 in total. He has scored 10 of those 93 centuires in the last 12 months in just 34 innings! He scored a century in each of his last 4 test matches. Will he reach 100 centuries this year itself? May be not, but it is mind boggling to me that he seems to be playing his best in his 20th year of playing international cricket.
We all can learn a lot from him about dedication and single minded focus over a long period of time.
Cricketers around the world poured in with praise on this feat.
