The Gladiator !!

Sachin Tendulkar,Brian lara,Ricky ponting,Jacques kallis,kumar sangakara,inzamam. What is that which strikes our mind when we talk about these bunch of guys. They all were the most premier batsmen of the modern era.

Apart from these greats we had greats in the bowling arena too. Bowlers like waqar,akram,akhtar,Mcgrath,Warne,Lee,Gillespie,muralitharan,vans,ambrose,Walsh,Donald,steyn,pollock were always there to terrorise the batsmen and make their feet dwindle.

But apart from Tendulkar each of the batsmen was fortunate enough to avoid facing atleast few of the bowlers, reason they were team mates.
Like ponting was fortunate enough to never face the spinning mysteries of Warne,nor the dead accurate deliveries of Mcgrath and Co with almost the whole team standing at slip cordon.

Likewise inzi never had to face the fierce toe breaking yorkers from waqar,nor the reverse swing from wasim which bent like a banana, and the maniac pace from the rawalpindi express.

Lara never had to spent sleepless nights thinking how to tackle the fierce bouncers coming from a height of almost 8 feet because he shared the same dressing room with the dreadly callyspos.

Neither kallis had to look eye to eye to the fierce glare from steyn or Donald, the stare which often make batsmen weak at knees.

BUT SRT FACED THEM ALL.He had to face them all and still piled on with those big scores,And often ruled them and with utmost glory and humility. #RESPECT #Sachinist
