When cricket fans heard about Sachin Tendulkar’s autobiography being released, there was joy and curiosity around. Unquestionably, it was the most awaited autobiography in the history of Indian sports. What was it that the fans didn’t know and they could find out from this book?
Well, ‘Playing it My Way’ proved to be a book on Tendulkar’s achievements and his life as a player rather than Tendulkar as a person. The book talks about everything: Ranji centuries, his maiden century, Australia tours, world cups, the Waqar bouncer, partnerships, sixes and victories. The book would have been incomplete without acknowledging “Achrekar Sir” and his experience of playing under him.
The book, published by Hachette, made headlines as the Greg Chappell controversy was thought to be exposed. However, Tendulkar chose to limit it to himself and instead discuss his two stints as the captain of Indian Cricket team. Tendulkar recollected those hard times when the national selectors refused to provide him the players he wanted and his teammates did not pay attention to his suggestions.
