Tell me one person who played for the country for no money (except Ramanathan Krishnan of India). Nowadays, even if you reach the quarter final in Wimbledon you are assured of millions of dollars. Krishnan reached Semi Finals 2 times in Wimbledon. He was ranked 6th in the world. He got ZERO money. Just the name he represented India. Make Tendulkar play just one match for India for no money.<br /><br />How many Indian cricket players know who Joe Montana is. Arguably, the greatest living athlete...of course, within USA and Canada.SGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05790347071764332430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636808797927234183.post-86275740549279915452014-07-23T00:59:38.544-07:002014-07-23T00:59:38.544-07:00brand nname was canon..in 2011 after wimbeldon sac...brand nname was canon..in 2011 after wimbeldon sachin was invited for royal dinner..federer and sharapova also attended the dinner!!!...sachin saw the match of federe from royal box..in the same tounament maria participated and lost final.maria sharapova was supposed to play a exhibition match with sachin for sunfeast open..in 2007 she pulled out last moment and didnt partcipate sunfeast open but her best frien maria klv played alongside sachin..won sunfeast open.the bitch is either lying or suffering from memory loss or simply got no real respect for other sportspersons and legends.tiger wood said he was thrilled to meet sachin...even ronaldo who dsnt what cricket is..knows sachin...browse net to ascertain facts..sandeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12068755289420066107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636808797927234183.post-7533359413736812022014-07-22T14:17:35.051-07:002014-07-22T14:17:35.051-07:00recently pele met harbhajan singh and spent a hour...recently pele met harbhajan singh and spent a hour with him and shared some light moments with him....why did he give so much importance to harbhajan?
