Sachin Tendulakar has completed his 50 test century- no dispute that its EXTRAORDINARY feat. His commitment to game and country is beyond doubt and he keeps on putting smiles on billions of Indians for past 21 years. But equating him with GOD is something not called for. The moment he completed his 50th ton , whole media is flooded with praising him- he deserved it rightfully- but media has gone overboard telling him and comparing with God. And its not general public, which anyways get carried away both in success and unsuccess of anybody, but learned cricket journalist too joined the bandwagon in terming him 'God'. I have seen multiple articles in newspapers, in one of that journalist mentioned that "only god could achieve this (50 century)", other wrote "it was looking like as if God himself was playing at Centurian"....
If you tell him Superhuman, Yes- I can understand, but just tell somebody God for achieving something great- Isn't it insult to God?
This is same media, which makes ones life miserable when one is unsuccessful. I remember, this same media had predicted that Sachin's career is all but over way back in year 2000 when he was struggling with form and injuries.
