Dada - A legacy....

Dada played the last match today...or should it be the last match played by Dada... literally both means the same.. but in actual they mean different...

Dunno when n how he became my Icon...may be @ the time when Sachin became the undisputed hero of Indian cricket.. the world was crazy about Sachin but someone else made a mark in those time.. most of the people tried to ignore it.. but that mark was there to last... an era was about to begin....

A sad day for me and all Dada fans... coz no longer we will be finding that name on Indian score card....Ya its true good things never lasts forever... coz then how will we know the difference between good and bad...He started the hunger for victory spirit in the Indian cricket team, which once more or less depended on luck or some heroics by some individual.. he was responsible for making it as a team....

Nobody can take that away from him...and what Dravid and Dhoni got were the graduates from the College of thoughts of Dada only...He taught everybody when to attack.. actually he taught everybody what Being Offensive actually means...He was willing to take risk.. no wonder he became the most successful captain of Indian cricket team...

He has shown what a true comeback means...The most emotional ad I have ever seen.. still those words are fresh in my ears.."Kya patha phir se hawa mein shirt gumaane ka mauka mil jaaye"..
And he lived for that oppurtunity and grabbed it well and outshined everyone else..

No matter what I write or wrote above.. one thing is true..Life has no smooth road for any of us; and in the bracing atmosphere of a high aim the very roughness stimulates the climber to steadier steps, till the legend, "over steep ways to the stars," fulfills itself....
Such is his legacy... I am gonna miss him like anything...............
