Sachin Tendulkar is the subject - cricket is the game. Biographer cvwilliams keeps you up-to-date on her research on the life of the brilliant batsman Sachin Tendulkar.
thanks for posting this.
ReplyDeleteit would be interesting to read if you post more information on sachin through lillee.
good going!
Wonderful article. Not really sure why there are so few comments. Nevertheless as some one who has been an ardent Tendulkar fan since he started playing cricket, I say this is a wonderful insight into his life. Keep it going!
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Not sure why comments are being blocked either, Rohit. I tried as a general reader to post a comment earlier today and it failed. Had simply wanted to say to Dolphin (see above comment)that I have more interview material from Lillee but readers will have to wait until my full biography of Sachin, expected next year. But in the meantime pleased to hear from you. Tks. CVW
ReplyDeleteGreat interview, Christine. It reinforces the thesis of the Trinidadian writer CLR James in 'Beyond a Boundary' (arguably the best book on sport ever written) that sport – specifically cricket – deserves to be treated as art, and great sport as great art; and that intellect is as important in sport as in any other art.
