Sachin has just scored his 50th test hundred, what in your opinion makes him so special?
Hi Steven, there are several things that make Sachin Tendulkar unique as a batsman and a cricketer.
Firstly, his ability to retain his passion and motivation for cricket and batting over so many games and a career that is over 20 years long.
This comes from having incredibly powerful goals that drive him to achieve more, to demand more from himself than coaches and fellow players do.
Secondly, other than having skill levels of the highest order he understands how to use his brain to its optimal capacity as a batter.
He chooses specific goals, he knows how to manage his focus and he prepares with purpose and method for every batting challenge he faces.
He is the master of the mental game !
