Sachin, Harbhajan and Zaheer join Nita Ambani in reaching education to underprivileged and disadvantaged kids
Sometimes you can score in cricket without picking a bat and walking onto the crease; before you spin the ball and send a thunderbolt streaking down the wicket; and, even while the covers are still on the grass and the teams are dressing up. All it takes is a cause, your belief in it, and the willingness to give of yourself to further that cause. That’s what Nita Ambani has started doing this week, scoring for her IPL team the Mumbai Indians, even though the third season of the popular Twenty20 tournament is still a cool 17 days away. And this Nita’s doing not for Messrs.

Youngsters have trouble in understanding the reason why Sachin is so admired by Indians. The stats don’t tell them the story, they find weaknesses, glitches, mistakes in them. The stats make him look good but is that all there is to Sachin?
I have been following him ever since I was hooked by his performance in the first 20/20 between Pak and India.
With Sachin it was not only about his batting. I won’t be wrong if I say that he is THE most famous and well known cricketer in the world ever. Kids look up to him even in third world countries. Only Sachin could have done an AD for milk in Saudi Arabia where there is no cricket.
