Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly, now pretty old guys, 75 and 80
years old, are sitting on a park bench feeding pigeons and talking
about cricket, like they do every day. Sachin turns to Sourav and
says, \"Do you think there\'s cricket in heaven?\" Ganguly thinks about
it for a minute and replies, \"I dunno. But let\'s make a deal: if I die
first,
I\'ll come back and tell you if there\'s cricket in heaven, and if you
die first, you do the same.\"
They shake hands on it and sadly, a few months later, poor Sachin
passes on. One day soon afterward, Ganguly is sitting there feeding
the pigeons by himself when he hears a voice whisper, \"Sourav...
Sourav!\" Ganguly responds, \"Sachin! Is that you?\" \"Yes it is, Sourav,\"
whispers Sachin\'s ghost. Ganguly, still amazed, asks, \"So, is there
cricket in heaven?\" \"Well,\" says Sachin, \"I\'ve got good news and bad
news.\" \"Gimme the good news first,\" says Ganguly. Sachin says,
\"Well... there is cricket in heaven.\" Ganguly says, \"That\'s great!
What news could be bad enough to ruin that!?\" Sachin sighs and
whispers, \"You\'re going to be the opening batsmen on Friday.\"
