Cricket is my RELIGION AND SACHIN IS MY GOD

Sachin is the only cricketer in the world, who has faced maximum number of injuries during his career and despite many injuries he is still playing and I am sure, the way he is presently blasting at the bowlers, he would be playing the next World Cup. My wish is that Sachin should be awarded with the "Man of the Series" in the next World Cup. He is undoubtedly pride of our Nation.
