Focus on the Sachin's right shoulder.

Nagpur: Sachin Tendulkar hurt his right shoulder not once but twice in the second Test, in Hyderabad, which is why he’s been given a break.

“The same shoulder took two falls and, while I played the final Test, I’ve got to give it time to recover,” Sachin told The Telegraph on Tuesday, shortly before leaving the city.

After an outstanding

10 months of Test cricket, Sachin managed just one fifty in the series, but was pleased with the 1-0 result, achieved earlier in

the day. “A much needed win (after two draws),” he said.

Sachin didn’t talk about having missed the opportunity to script his 50th Test hundred, in Jamtha, but he’d stated the following on the eve of completing 21 years as an International — “As I see it, there’s more to cricket than 50 Test hundreds... I believe in destiny... Whatever is to happen, will...”

Even as Sachin was leaving, somebody associated with the Board buttonholed him: “Now, I’ll have to send you a congratulatory message in South Africa...”

Sachin doesn’t like this attention, or call it hype, but has to live with it. It’s a price he has to pay.
