A great knock by Sachin, 97 vs. Pakistan leading India to a series victory, has forced me to push my work-in-progress Europe Trip post to the back-burner.
This truly was one of the best innings that Sachin has played - he seemed to have been in the groove and the 'zone' all the way through. Some unbelievable shots played - a typical classical Tendulkar innings characterized by great timing and placement. One can travel miles to see the flicks to square leg, the authoritative square drive and the punches down the ground. A great knock!
Yeah, yet another score in 90s... 6th time in 2007. But frankly, there is no real reason behind it - it is probably one of those things that just happen. Though this would for sure be at back of Sachin's mind, I am sure, as he said at the press conference, he wouldn't think too much about it. Probably what is more important is that he has been in great form, scoring big scores and at the end of the day, a 100 is nothing more than a psychological boundary... a 93 or 97 or 99 is just as good.
Well played Sachin! A great knock!
