This was the punchline for a suitings range a couple of decades ago.Sunil Gavaskar endorsed the brand and Gavaskar morethan the brand remainedin people's memory.This thought came to me when Sachin Tendulkar and Veerender Sehwag came out to bat at the Feroze Sah Kotla,yesterday.India needed 190 to win against the unfancied Netherlands.Every person was standing and most were chanting "Sachin,Sachin".This was Delhi and Sehwag was walking alonside.Only when sehwag took guard that a smaller section started to chant ''VEERU,Veeru".Sachin was even in Delhi, the master and sehwag the disciple.
The Delhi crowd demonstrated how Cricketing intelligence in India is truly national and how Sachin holds a place in Indian cricket which is perhaps unparrelelled in the annals of international sport.
