Sachin Tendulkar retires from One Day Cricket, joins Mumbai's Dhobi Ghat
Post announcement of retiring from One Day Internationals, Sachin Tendulkar announced that he will keep using his batting skills and would wash clothes in Mumbai's Dhobi Ghat. That will also improve his performance in test matches. Dhobi (laundry man or washer man) is the only community in India which uses cricket bat (a small wooden piece similar to cricket bat) more professionally and commercially.
"As it wasn't a secret that I was not going to play for 2015 World Cup and my test scores were moving in a snail like pace, I felt that I should join Mumbai's Dhobi Ghat and use my bat in more aggressive and proactive way. This will accomplish my dream of becoming a complete test player in next 2 years," said Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar in a packed press conference.
Sachin Tendulkar is considered the best batsman in the world with 100 centuries in his kitty, which include 49 centuries in One Day Internationals. With the entry in the new field of game, Sachin is expected to use same heavy bat while washing clothes.
He said "I had various options in my mind such as fisher man and gate keeper. However, no where I could have used my bat so productively and aggressively than in the profession of washer man. This would improve my performance and sharpen the skills of aggression as well as focus."
Sachin took his bat in his hand and with all his power started tossing up and down on the desk as like dhobi do with the clothes in Dhobi Ghat. All the media journalists and reporters noted down his determination and focus towards the bat chopping.
According to sources, Sachin is planning to achieve Don Bradman's test average in his next career stanza.
"Sachin is planning to score with an average of 100 in his next 200 test matches," said the source close to the development.
