Neither the Indians nor the Caribbeans probably wanted the test to end in three days.
Perhaps to see Sachin with the willow again, Gayle started to score with his majestic power.
Unfortunately, it was the Indian spinners who didn't let Sachin bat again.
India won the match and the series in 3 days.
The youth that is to carry Sachin's legacy won of the Match and Series titles.
But who really cared about the series or the match. The day was Sachin's from the very beginning.
While the fans were worried how would cricket be without Sachin, Mrs MasterBlaster was thinking, how will Sachin be without cricket?
But Who knows, Junior Sachin is probably growing up right in the backyard. Sachin first came into cricket as a ball-boy. He left his son as one, on his last day.
But Sachin didn't want to be a ball boy or even a batsman, he wanted to be a pace bowler. He played the last game as one, but as a spinner.
Sachin didn't get any wickets but what he has achieved is unparallelled and probably will remain so for ages.
All those thrilling innings he played, probably would defeat Sherlock Holmes,the way he loved that tri-color perhaps will make Shakespeare's romance seem dim.
The history he wrote between that 22 yards in 24 years, is it anything less than a classic.?
