Adelide witnesses a Masterclass

It was past 10 in the night for me @ the Pacific in the US... Sunny Day @ Adelide, Australia... A man who has been a child for 38 times working out in the middle... Another who had been there 34 times at the Commentary Box chanting and another who had done that 33 times and counting witnessing from the Point... Sachin drives past the Cover with such elegance that a valiant dive from the fielder couldn't stop the Master Blaster from becoming a child for the 39th time in his illustrious career... The Little Master at the commentary Box fumbling with his words unusually, Tears rolling down my eyes... What else would be a perfect sight for an average Devotee to this Demi-God of Indian Cricket? Very Very Special Laxman witnessing the event from the Non-Striker's end was perhaps enjoying this one even more than his electrifying Centuries against the Aussies.... I'm blogging as both of them were still going strong - I wanted to keep this snapshot forever with me - Sachin going back to his Childhood Joy once and only once at this Ground - What more when he was at the Center of the Bradman and the Chappel Stands... To me, Sachin - you are and you will be forever - the Eighth Wonder of the World - for responding to Critics the Most Professional Way for the Most Number of times than anybody else...
