AGE NEVER MATTERS IN YOUR PASSION

Hi friends. Today I will be describing that does age really matter in your passion???

You may be having different perceptions but as far as facts are concerned age matters very little in your passion. Today in this blog I will be giving a brief about one cricketers\ who even after attaining high age was attached to his passion.

                                                  PERSON TO PLAY CRICKET TILL AGE OF 65

First of all I would like to describe about W G GRACE(WILLIAM GILBERT GRACE). He was an English first class cricketer and was also known as one of the greatest cricketers of his time. In the history of cricket he was regarded as FATHER OF CRICKET. He was veteran of Latest Cricket. His records give such impressions on which, you will get surprised because till now we consider SACHIN TENDULKAR has highest record maker in cricket. In first class cricket he holds a record of more than 100 Centuries with 55,000 runs and approximately 3000 wickets and more than 850 catches.

He was also regarded as The Doctor, The Old Man and The Champion. He played his last first class match at the age of 65 and despite he made 69 runs. He couldnt tolerate when he was declared out by the umpires. Besides he used to argue with the umpires that he was not out. Once upon a time he was playing a county match and after getting an edge on the bat the ball straight away went in the hands of wicket keeper and wicket keeper started appealing. After Wicket keepers appeal the umpire told to GRACE very politely "Sir if you consider that you are out then you can go to pavillion". On this Mr GRACE said "Neither I am out and nor I will consider that I am out and morever people come to watch my batting and not your umpiring"  in humourous tone. His level of popularity was such that the tickets of match used to get decided on whether GRACE was playing or not?.www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3KAfC7G2cU

To all my viewers I would like to say that age never matters in your passion and you can do anything at any age if you have a firm determination in your mind, heart and soul. In Indian context ANNA HAZARE serves as the best example who despite 74 years, is active determined and fighting against corruption
