“Take a bow master!”, “You little champion!”

How does Sachin Tendulkar do it?
How does Sachin Tendulkar do it? How does a 36-year-old cricketer stay at the top of the game for 20 years? How does he retain this incredible hunger for achievement after scoring more than 30,000 runs in the long (Test) and shorter (50 over) versions of the game?

Cricket fans are asking these questions again after Tendulkar created history by firing the first double century in one-day internationals.

It was an unbelievable innings of brutal finesse – he smacked 25 fours and three sixes and batted just 147 balls to score 200. He simply toyed with South Africa’s formidable bowlers.

Congratulations!
