Sachin Tendulkar… to tell the words to be told
When it comes to Sachin, the words of the dictionary also look less to tell him. The truth is that no Sachin Tendulkar becomes like this. The challenges have to make an opportunity for him. Diligence, hard work, stubbornness, passion, passion, inspiration, discipline, humility, never eradicated hunger of success… If you want to define all these adjectives, all the qualities, then just look at Sachin. These words, these characteristics also like his thanks that his personality showed the world what the real meaning of these words is. Sachin Tendulkar was carved by his guru Ramakant Achrekar and what a lot of carving.
Like this, no one becomes Sachin Tendulkar
Sachin Tendulkar used to catch a bus at number 315 from Bandra East and go to Shivaji Park for practice at the age of 10-11. He first met Ramakant Achrekar at the age of 11. The coaches used to take him from one ground to another. The British newspaper The Telegraph has published a detailed report on his news website on a conversation with Sachin Tendulkar. It describes the routine of master blaster in the initial days. Sachin had to play for 10-12 games in a single day. In the summer, he used to sweat in batting by practicing net for 2 hours from 7:30 in the morning. After that he used to go directly to Shivaji Park. He used to play 55 games in 60 days during the summer season.

That story of placing a coin on the middle stump
Coach Ramakant Achrekar used to do something more in the last 15 -minute session of practice for his beloved disciple who improved Sachin more. It can be called Rewards and Motivation sessions in the language of psychology. During this, Sachin used to practice batting on the wicket.
Guru Achrekar used to place a coin of one rupee on the middle stump. If Sachin used to take out the entire session without being out, then that coin. This was a big challenge because not 11, 25-50 and sometimes there were fielders up to 70. It was the biggest prize to get that one rupee coin for Sachin Tendulkar, who has been awarded every major award of sports and the country’s highest civilian honor ‘Bharat Ratna’.
