The power of long term & staying in the game outbreaks almost anything.
Most people quit in short term.
Sachin is Sachin & with all due respect, Vinod Kambli is Vinod Kambli because of long vs short cricketing career respectively.
From what I heard, Kambli was even a better cricketer than Sachin in early stages of their career. While Sachin persisted & stayed in the game, Kambli didn’t showed up.
I need not say further. Rest is the history.
Long term is a rare breed.
