The secret of Sachin’s Sixers – Star Suva.

subha copyAcross the rope and into the stands. If you are able to lift the ball of Numbers as cleanly as Sachin did, you can literally hit your bad times for a six. Many of you share the 6th as their birthdays with Sachin, then how come fortune favours him with its choicest blessing? Instead of getting into the details, it will suffice to say that it is through numbers that destiny swings the old ball, with the reverse swing often catching even the greatest of players on the wrong foot.

Lest us pad up with Sachin, Yes, this is just a glimpse of what the man has achieved over a quarter of a century with the bat and is in no way a complete “tribute” to the “numbers”. Still, here goes:

Sachin’s Birth date – 24th (2+4 = 6)

Sachin’s career – 24 years (2+4 = 6)

Sachin hang up his boots on – 15th (1 + 5 = 6)

S+A+C+H+I+N = 6 letters

Sachin Tendulkar = 15 letters = 6

Sachin’s debut test was on the 15th (1 + 5 = 6) which was in November, 1989

Sachin’s 100th century ended at 114 runs = again 6

The 100th century was scored after a gap of one year and 5 days = 6

Sachin scaled the 18,000 run peak on 24th (2+4 = 6)

Sachin’s better half Anjali is also a 6 letter wonder

They were wedded  on the 24th

According to Forbes, Sachin is at 51(5+1 = 6) as the world’s richest sportsperson

Sachin’s sunsign is Taurus, whose ruling planet in Venus. As per numerology, the no 6 too is ruled by Venus. Which explains the endless success and honour that has become Sachin’s middle name. 3 and 9 are friendly numbers of 6 – Jupiter and Mars – is also strengthened by an exalted Mars in his natal chart. The rarity is however the debilitated Jupiter which has not only lost its otherwise positional weakness, but has recouped to cast its positive influence.

The no 3 too is equally important in Sachin’s life which can be seen from the fact that 21 (2+1=3, Jupiter’s no) was his age when he played the 6th World Cup of his life. What is even more striking is that India had won the cup by 6 wickets!

Note – all numbers were accessed from the net and I being a poor number cruncher have no claim over their veracity. Who knows, Sachin may have broken a record here or there too?
