At times, one feels they are surviving on their reputation and not its execution. But these enigmatic geniuses often find someone who understands their worth, who believes in them as much as they believe in themselves. Yusuf Pathan is an enigma. Everyone knows of his supreme leather-pounding power and they love him for that. But to their dismay they don’t see that skill being converted into runs.

Set to play his 200th and farewell Test at the Wankhede Stadium from Thursday, Tendulkar added two more teammates in Mumbai’s Rohit Sharma and Bengal’s Mohammad Shami who were capped against the West Indies last week at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata. This took his teammates tally to 110 teammates, one behind England’s Frank Woolley (111 in 64 Tests) and seven behind England’s Graham Gooch (118...
