Book Summary of Sachin: Born to Bat
The Journey of Cricket`s Ultimate Centurion
Sachin: Born to Bat by veteran journalist Khalid A-H Ansari and edited by Clayton Murzello is a unique ode to contemporary cricket`s finest batsman.
In the words of the author: This is an attempt to impartially probe the crucial mental, physical and emotional ingredients of a cricketing ˜god`. I have tried to turn the laser on the maestro`s persona - innumerable blemishes and all - to prevent the book from degenerating into a shabaash, wah-wah hagiography. For all his splendiferous achievements, Sachin has also shown that he is a mere mortal with feet of clay - witness his run-ins with authority, cricketing and civil.
Despatches to MiD DAY, one of Asia`s leading newspapers, from some of the world`s most famous names in cricket writing - Ayaz Memon, Harsha Bhogle, Ian Chappell, Mike Coward, Peter Roebuck and other luminaries - grace the pages of this book.
Tributes from cricket`s most famous personalities including Tendulkar`s Team Ind isbn 9788184953008
