Tendulkar rewards his biggest fan
this is quite a touching story, I think.

"You see, the people of India would still love Tendulkar, their team, even if they stoically stayed inside the locker room. And this is the point. In that moment between “have to” and “not” – this is where true greatness resides. Tendulkar and his teammates do not owe anyone anything – they delivered. But in his glory, Sachin Tendulkar chose to honor what is best in all of us. What an epic sportsman is this?"
My admiration for Sachin has gone up even more after this final. He had every right to bask completely in the glory, but he only ever praised his team mates in the post-match interviews. Here is a man who owns almost every batting record in international cricket, but he clearly took the most pleasure of being part of a World Cup winning team. He then went out of his way to invite Gautam into the dressing room.
Class.
