Dec 23, 2012 the day which started
with heartbreaking news for millions of Sachinist’s across the globe but what
was Sachin doing on Dec 22 2012? Did he made up my mind already by then ? There
are many such questions and Sudhir Kumar, a crazy Sachinist explains to
sachinist.com about what was happening inside 19A Perry cross on that day. Here
is what he has said in his words.
Dec 22, 2012 I was in Mumbai to
watch India vs. England T20 match. Early in the noon I have to been to Sachin’s
residence like normally I do when I’m in Mumbai. Paji was normal and had not
shown any intentions that he has decided to quit playing ODI cricket.
After spending time there and having
lunch it was almost time for the match which I was supposed to go
to wankhede stadium. Paji drove me to the stadium and dropped me near my
supposed entry gate, then I told Sachin that he will be playing ODI series
which start in a 4 days’ time and practically it’s not possible for me to
travel in time to reach in time.
For which master replied “Sudhir"
don’t worry I will arrange flight ticket for you so that you can watch my match
by reaching in time”. After that master left and I been to the gallery sadly we
lost the match. I had early morning train to catch for Bangalore, I slept in
BCCI office and around 1- 1:30 Am a person from BCCI woke me up and said the
news that Sachin has sent a letter saying he is retiring from ODI cricket.
I did not believe it in the start
but then with in no time media channels have started calling me and asking
about the news. Then I have realized that it is true. I don’t know what has
already taken the decision before I met him or taken after dropping me but as per
what he has looked like I don’t think he has taken decision earlier before I
met him in the morning. Taking such a big decision and being normal it’s not possible,
maybe it is for Sachin after all he is God.
Like this there are many questions
in my mind. After that when I met Sachin he has not spoken anything about ODI
cricket retirement and nor did I ask.
