CWC 2011 - The Tendulkar Postulation

There will be victories and defeats. Rule of the universe. In my eyes, the parties that really won this World Cup are the Bangladeshi people and the Little Master, Sachin 'the destroyer' Tendulkar (isn't the name awesome? I made it up). We Bangladeshis have presented ourselves in front of the world, with a World Cup opening ceremony like nothing before. Personally,  I had bad feelings about it but then taking a drive with the family in Dhaka City the night before the ceremony, the transformed city blew me away. I'll say it again, I was blown away. I'm not a big cricket fan(footaball for the win, not rugby but soccer) and even I know, who really needed the WC, me obviously.
I'm just kidding. Sachin Tendulkar FTW, that magnificent son of a gun. His batting is truly MAJESTIC. He will be studied by the best and the worst for years to come, I personally think he should get patents or something for his matches. He's going to be a billionaire if all Indians just pay 5 rupees to him. I don't know where that came from, coming back to the point, doesn't Sachin Tendulkar deserve the World Cup? You know he does, then why all the frustrations? Be happy for the guy. Let's take a look at his statistics,

A staggering 18000 runs. What the hell is that?

Sachin Tendulkar has been the most complete batsman of his time, the most prolific runmaker of all time, and arguably the biggest cricket icon the game has ever known. His batting is based on the purest principles: perfect balance, economy of movement, precision in stroke-making, and that intangible quality given only to geniuses: anticipation. If he doesn't have a signature stroke - the upright, back-foot punch comes close - it is because he is equally proficient at each of the full range of orthodox shots (and plenty of improvised ones as well) and can pull them out at will.
THIS IS FROM ESPNCRICINFO. Yes, I am awesome but not that awesome.
Frankly speaking no one needs the statistics. Everyone grew up, atleast the people with whom I grew up, heard the name Tendulkar everywhere. After Sir Donald Bradman and Viv Richards, it was him. His sixes and fours were what made everyone's day. Okay maybe a bit of exaggeration there, but come on you know what I am saying?

A tiny congratulations won't hurt anyone. Give him the respect that he so undeniably deserves.
