*Who would you win the WC for?
*If you played in a World Cup, you would probably want to win it for your
country and yourself. The two most important things. Or you might want to
win it for your mother or coach or someone who got you this far.
Why would you want to win it primarily for another player in the team?
A section of the media is making out to as if Sachin Tendulkar is the only
person who is interested in winning the World Cup for India and the rest are
merely out to spoil his party.
For the record, this is Sachin's sixth WC attempt (very few people get that
many chances) and he has more to prove than anything else.
In the current squad, Dhoni, Yuvraj Singh, Gautam Gambhir, Yusuf Pathan,
Harhajan Singh and S Sreesanth already have a World Cup final victory under
their belt. Others are playing in just their first or second WC.
In fact it was Sachin himself who failed to last even one over in the only
WC final he played in 2003 against Australia.
Now, once a team reaches a final, any one of the 11 players have the
potential to play a match-winning knock.
It is unfair to the other players to focus so much on one man only.
Having said that, one really hopes India can win this time as it would be a
fitting end for Sachin's long and record-breaking career.
