Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar played for 24 long years and did what no one else could. But do we see such long careers in the future also? Unlikely! For two simple reasons, one, the amount of cricket played and the fitness it demands is immense.

Sachin played at a time where teams used to play fewer formats and series and thus his body could sustain his efforts. With T20, ODIs and tests running simultaneously the physical stress players go through is incomparable.

Secondly, too many good players are emerging. If one doesn’t perform in a match or two, someone will replace him. Gone are the days of endless second chances.

Hence it will lead to smaller careers. Consistency will play a huge role in determining a player’s stay. Another reason why cricket is going to explode !
