So, I was told that Tendulkar is doing so well today because the Gods are smiling on him. The evidence for this is that he got 14,000 runs on the 10th day of the 10th month in 2010 AND because it was 10.10pm in Australia at the time.
Interesting (and convenient), in light of the fact that Australia crosses three time zones.
Also, the Gods must be smiling on me as well because I increased my weights at the gym on 10th day of the 10th month in 2010 AND Marcus North got a century AND the scab finally fell off that burn on my arm AND I got three tomatoes from my garden AND I didn't find any split ends in my hair ...
Do you see where I'm going with this?
Tendulkar is an amazing batsman, there is no doubt about it, but the Gods are smiling on him? Oh please.
One wonders how the great man himself feels about the fact that his countrymen are crediting the "gods" with all his hard work.
India 128-2 at stumps on day 2; trailing Australia by 350 runs.

haha, if I'm not mistaken when he came out to bat last test it actually stated on the scoreboard, 'God is at the crease'. Pretty amusing.
He's a bloody champ with that bat in hand, no arguments or debates needed there, but it gets taken a step too far with this God stuff.
However, as non-Indian supporters we should try and not understand.
I replied to your Email btw.
Oh yeah, you see Andrew McDonald cashed in with a bloody massive century? He's really trying hard to make sure those photos have a story to tell!
I can't allow Andrew McDonald to do well. It's the hair, I can't get past it.
"We should try and not understand" hehehe ... will there be tears when Sachin finally retires? Oh wait, I had tears when Steve Waugh ...
Email found and replied to. Thanks.
