Those who moan about Sachin making pots of monee, think of this, if you compete against 100 million people and come up as number 1. What kind of rewards should you get?
There are tens of thousands CEO / Business leaders in world and they make crores ... Sachin is among top 5 sportsmen in world, should he not deserve the money? (Those complaining about cricket played in 8 countries only, look at world population base, close to 2 billion people follow cricket)
Why no one complains when Shahrukh makes millions? he is just among 100 actors and has earning lifespan of 40 yrs, where as Sachin will be out of cricket in max 20 yrs total.
