India cricket great and former Captain, Sachin Tendulkar, knows when he sees another great. Taking to his X (Twitter) account, Tendulkar, reacting to West Indies player, Shamar Joseph, taking seven Australian wickets, says it highlights the sheer grit and drama of Test cricket. He also sees Joseph as a key architect in scripting a historic victory for the West Indies in Australia after 27 years. No Guyanese would disagree with this.
