The rocket boosters took their time, but Sehwag’s surged past the stratosphere against Sri Lanka in the 2nd Test before anyone figured what he was doing. Dropped on naught, Sehwag went from 6 off 24 at one point to 57 off 64. Brilliant stuff. The magic of boundaries compares nicely to the wonders of compound interest. (Just a side-note in these tough economic times: save, save, save!)
If that kind of growth occurred in finance, sleuths would be out looking for hanky-panky! 🙂
