Cricket is game of glorious uncertainties.Considering the fact that he is fast approaching prime of his age , the prospect of getting 50 Test centuries depends on how well he handles his injuries. As far as his stroke play is concerned , Tendulkar still has the ‘ killer instinct ‘ intact in him , which provides him the power to engineer variety of strokes .Having said that , it’s time for the media to avoid being at loggerheads with Tendulkar on minor issues.

I am saying so because media is guilty of portraying him in wrong frames.Instead of playing the role of facilitator , it has been in the past making his attempt to rise above the challenges bit difficult by raising doubts over his batting abilities .It could be very well stated that his journey to 50 Test centuries depend not only how well he deals with injuries but also how he prevent himself from the scathing attacks of media , which loves to blow- out -of -proportion minor flaws of the icons.
