Is it just me or is there really a resemblance between ex cricketer Maninder Singh and Mr. Laden, the American CIA's #1 most wanted man ?

In the mean time, a lot of things are happening for India(n batsmen) on this losing tour of Sri Lanka.

** Sehwag retains his #1 spot in the ICC table.

** Sachin Tendulkar carved his 48th Test century, and is  now only 6 short of becoming the only human to score 100 International centuries (ODI's and Tests combined. Pretty amazing stuff. 

Like I said to a friend, we are lucky to see two players in our lifetime who have shown us the human limits. 

Murulidharan as a bowler and Tendulkar as a batsman are testimony of the highest (or farthest) limits of human endurance and productivity on a Cricket field. I have my doubts we will ever see them usurped ... not in our lifetime anyway.

**  Rahul Dravid has silently, meticulously and unceremoniously (as he and his career have always been) compiled 9000 runs as a #3 batsman...second only to Ricky Ponting in the process, and the only second cricketer of all time to do so.
