when you look at a great player like sachin tendulkar you see a sportsman who is even more passionate about his sport today than when he started playing 20 years ago.
the great sachin feels youthful and he is full of passion.
how many cricketers in the game today will honestly say they are are more passionate about their game today than when they started playing ?
not much.
i really can't see tendy retiring from cricket right now. with his youthfulness and passion for his cricket tendy will likely play into his 40s.
who knows tendy may even score 65 test hundreds!
all the best to sachin ramesh tendulkar. the great indian batsman has even motivated another great to come out of retirement.
42 year old brian lara will soon be playing in the IPL.

BP,
yes..Sachin is hungry and playing well which probably encourage Lara to come out of retirement. It will be a treat to watch these legends playing in the same game.
If Sachin continues in this form he might get to 60 Tons... Sach is full of passion and cricket

yet, we see humble men like Sachin and Lara let the stats do the talking.
talk is cheap. and many cricketers today talk a good talk.
passion that makes one productive in internal.
tendy is passionate about their cricket internally.
he is cool on the outside but full of passion regarding his cricket on the inside.
those who are passionate on the outside are faking it.

You damn right talk is cheap! These new passion players are not cut from the same cloth as Sachin and Lara who have been performing consistently for years at high standards. These living legends don't have to come up with buzzwords to talk about the good ole game of cricket.
