Sachin Tendulkar: The Definitive Biography by Vaibhav Purandare

June 15,

Sachin Tendulkar: a definitive biography, the first book on cricketing life of Indian batting maestro that I picked for a read. I must confess, this one was a pleasant experience. The biography is a narrative authored by Vaibhav Purandare with a foreword from Ramachandra Guha. A definitive biography is different from several other works on life of Sachin Tendulkar. Vaibhav Purandare gets underway with a brief and interesting account on the Indian batting legend's early days as a budding cricketer. The Bandra boy's interest in cricket was triggered by Indian Cricket team's World Cup final victory against the mighty West Indies. The ten year old boy took notice of the proceedings during the enthralling finals and dreamed about taking guard at the batting crease one day. As we know it, the dream did come true for him. The little fella considered Sir Vivian Richards as his batting idol during the initial years of his childhood and the West Indian great's aggressive batting style did have a measurable influence on Sachin Tendulkar's batting persona. This reflected in the modes of attack adopted by him to tackle

This book is not for the passionate Sachin fan, because most would themselves be able to write about 90% of the book. I know I could.

All the Tendulkar moments are there: the Ranji centuries, the Waqar bouncer, the maiden century, the Australia tours, opening in ODIs, the world cups, the five-wicket hauls, the Sharjah twins, the Chennai , Sydney , Multan, the Gwalior , the umpiring howlers, the partnerships, the sixes and the triumphs. As are the stories and anecdotes: multiple matches under Achrekar Sir, staying at his uncle's, the Kambli partnership, wearing disguises to watch a movie, losing his father, love of food, the captaincy, the injuries, crying his heart out at every major loss.

And very little else.

A good (auto)biography or memoir is one that has either fantastic new content that breaks fresh ground or is presented in an eminently captivating manner. This, though, fails on both counts, especially so in the writing which is just lazy and simplistic from Boris Majumdar. Remember how Sachin so maddeningly used to get dismissed against the Cronjes and Razzaqs with that half prod outside off stump? Well, this is in the sa

Sachin Tendulkar: A Definitive Biography

This is not a scorebook, nor is it an accumulation of facts or the extension of a globally recognised brand. This is the first in-depth and comprehensive biography of Sachin Tendulkar, and it puts Sachin, the cricketer and the human being, in perspective. Tendulkar's story is told here grippingly, with a wealth of rare, unpublished anecdotes that throw fresh light on a remarkable career. The book probes the psychological growth of the world's leading batsman, examines the historical forces that shaped his personal and cricketing character, analyses his cricket planning and actions and evaluates the history the man himself has created, whether by making his Test debut at 16 or making his 50th century in Test cricket. It just as carefully chronicles and discusses his disappointments, failures and the controversies that have cropped up around his name, and provides an insight into Tendulkar the man, who has for so long been kept from public view. Above all, the book places Tendulkar in the context of the international cricket tradition and determines his exact place in world cricket history. Capacious and yet crisp, Sachin Tendulkar:
