Now for Boxing Day - Dec 25

It was his 16th inning w/o a hundred, more precisely hundredth international hundred and with perfect setting it was on the cards!

But then came the moment - the one which for long time we had put to rest....
10.10 AM on 94 and OUT! It was total DISBELIEF!

First Lords, then came Oval, subsequently in Delhi yet he couldn't reach to this elusive landmark.

"LAW OF AVERAGE" was too on his side and yet this Friday God had to play cruel!



For me it was never about this hundred, he will anyways get to it sooner than later, but for Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar reaching to this landmark on his home ground - Wankhade would had been "Icing on the cake"

In a country with so much of imperfection, hatred, disparity, betrayal - Sachin's hundred would have come as a respite..... After all for past 22 years he has given us incomparable joy!

God you a***** all we expected was a PERFECT ENDING!! SACHI!
