Salute to the master

Sachin makes history today again, highest runs in an one day match inning. In an Indian way I would say “mind blasting” knock. It’s always a treat to see Sachin playing but this kind of comes after years. I was thrilled by the news since I was in the office. Once Viv Richards said about Sachin "He is 99.5 percent perfect. I'd pay to see him." This knock is very close to his standards, love him watching and making ball go over the rope effortlessly.

I shared this news with my friends in Philadelphia, US. I have been telling them about Sachin since last two years. They also follow him now and whenever something like happens they always send me emails. A very good friend of mine sent me email saying

“he bludgeoned 25 fours and three sixes in a stunning 200 off 147 balls.I don’t know what that means, but it sounds like he dominated!" - Elgin Akarsoy

A small experiment

On my recent visit to my village, I conducted a workshops for high school students. In one, I was talking to the students regarding career planning, vocational courses available and study disciplines. Being in the rural zones they have very less access to any information. Generally, they start working/earning right after SSC. After knowing that there are so many courses available they were so excited and more curious. Also I’ve conducted another workshop on quicker mathematics. Yesterday, I got the call from one of their teachers saying that ‘students are doing calculation so fast that I’m feeling outdated’. I dint expect how little contribution or talk could affect students so positively.
