Batting ace champion Sachin Tendulkar has insisted the needs of developing the game from the grassroots level marking an advocacy on the historic occasion of 75 years of India's Test cricket. Tendulkar shared his vision for Indian cricket after saluting all the pioneers of Indian Cricket, past and present for making the game what it is now.
Tendulkar seemed to show his care for the game in India. No wonder he's a great batsman today. He maintained his backing of developing the game saying that it's very vital to take the game to the grassroots level. Cricket needs to be taken to remote places in India and he was confident that it is one of the major points on the BCCI agenda. "That's how this game will get bigger and better," Tendulkar said.
He showed his concern towards the budding players were evident from his speech. "Players from isolated and remote areas simply do not have access to play cricket" he added. He also advised that Provision of opportunities to all players in remote places will introduce and develop cricket in every nook and corner of the country. Tendulkar stressed that if the infrastructure is of high-quality and available to all, the next generation of cricketers will certainly be more talented and more skilled.
His experience in the game spoke a lot. "Cricket is changeable and the change will be very fast". He added a point that keeping pace with time will help to overcome this variation problem. The choice of good players seemed to be his good concern. He provided a clue for this strategy. "when you will have more players playing the game, you will have more players to choose from. That will make sure a good supply of class players in the long run."
Parallel sentiments were shared by the team's cricket manager, Chandu Borde who is also the former captain and chief selector. He expressed his joy in expressing what the board decided in regards to rural development. "I had the privilege of being present in the captain's meeting called by the board and we recommended that the game needs to be taken far and wide," said Borde.
"We need proper infrastructure for more kids to be attracted to the game. All these years there was a lot of attention in school and university or college cricket which was the supply line for Indian team. That is now gone." added Borde, "I strongly suppose that schools and college cricket must be revitalized. We need to give our children better ground to play cricket right from school and college level."
