As Sachin Tendulkar gears up to take the field for the final two Tests of his 24-year long career, a majority of fans in the country will start running helter-skelter to get their hands on tickets. The Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) big wigs will take the best seats in the house, veteran cricketers will make their presence felt with heartfelt tributes and interesting anecdotes and thousands will occupy the stands in the hope to experience the epilogue of Tendulkar’s well-documented and vastly celebrated international career. India has painfully let go of a few stars before, but none will match up to what can be expected at the Eden Gardens as well as the Wankhede Stadium next month. Former skipper Sourav Ganguly’s final Test came in Nagpur. Ganguly may have walked out to standing ovations and spent an emotional final few moments in the middle, the fan fare was not built up the way it is being carried out for Tendulkar.
