I believe that Sachin is likely to be awarded Bharat Ratna on completion of 100th century.  There is a strong lobbying going around the political circles too.  Apart from cricket Sachin has been associated with NGO work, i hope he tries to bring up the downtrodden by beginning a cricket academy.  West Bengal s govt has cancelled the land alloted to Dada for having a cricket academy.  In this manner cricketers of repute are not given opportunity to return back something to the nation in their own field.  Debate plea

Being a cricket lover and a cricket blog owner, I still feel its off topic, its a personal opinion. PS - I am a great SACHIN fan and would love if He receives the award:)

The blogging community has rise up, and support good work or recognise outstanding achievements.  It acts as a lobby to ensure that award for highest sports achievement is suitably rewarded.  Bharat Ratna is awarded to personalities who excell in their field.  Consider some of the awardees MGR, Amartya Sen, Lata Mangeskar, they have awarded for their contribution, is SACHIN any lesser.  The other sports personality who deserves is hockey wizard Dhyan Chand, i believe jointly they can be awarded for a change.  I hope you got the point.  Cricket is the most unifying factor in India, despite diverse cultures and religion.

Frankly great people don't care about awards. The joy of doing what they do best is their only prize.
