होय, सचिनबाबत माझ्याकडून मोठी चूक झाली; ८ वर्षानंतर दिली कबूली
नवी दिल्ली: क्रिकेटमध्ये सर्वात जास्त शतक करणारा मास्टर ब्लास्टर सचिन तेंडुलकरची अनेक शतक अंपायरच्या चुकीच्या निर्णयामुळे पूर्ण होऊ शकली नाहीत. आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेटमध्ये १०० शतक करणाऱ्या सचिनने अंपायर्सनी अनेकदा बाद नसताना मैदानाबाहेर घालवले. नव्वदीत खेळत असताना सचिनला बाद दिल्याची कबूली एका दिग्गज अंपायरने दिली आहे. क्रिकेट विश्वातील सर्वात चांगल्या अंपायरमध्ये यांचा समावेश होतो. २००४ ते २००८ या पाच वर्षात आयसीसीचा ऑफ द इअर हा पुरस्कार त्यांनी मिळवला होता. पण या सर्वोत्तम अंपायरकडून देखील चूका झाल्या आहेत. टॉफेल यांनी २०१२ साली निवृत्ती घेतली. वाचा- टॉफेल यांनी गौरव कपूरच्या प्रसिद्ध पॉडकास्ट कार्यक्रम २२ यार्न्स पॉडकास्ट होस्टेड बाय गौरव कपूर या मध्ये बोलताना सचिनबद्दल केलेल्या एका मोठ्या चुकीबद्दल सांगितले. भारत आणि इंग्लंड २००७ ट्रेंट ब्रिज येथे कसोटी सामन्यात सचिन ९१ धावांवर खेळत होता. पॉल कॉलिंगवूडने चेंडूवर अपिल केली आणि मी सचिनला बाद दिले. सचिन या निर्णयामुळे नाराज होता. तो काही वेळ तसाच थांबला होता. नंतर बॉल ट्रॅकिंग स्क्रीनवर स्पष्टपणे दिसत होते की, चेंडू विकेटपासून फार लांब जात होता, असे टॉफेल म्हणाले. वाचा- हे स्पष्ट होते की मी निर्णय घेण्यास चुको होतो. मला कल्पना होती क्रिकेट विश्वात यावर प्रतिक्रिया येणार. त्यानंतर मी क्रिकइन्फो आणि वृत्तपत्रे वाचले नाही. पुढील महिनाभर मी माध्यमांच्या नजरेत असणार याची मला कल्पना होती. या घटनेच्या दुसऱ्या दिवशी मी मैदानावर सचिनला भेटलो आणि त्याच्या मोकळेपणाने चर्चा केली. मी काल चुकीचा निर्णय दिला. त्यावर सचिन म्हणाला, तुम्ही एक चांगले अंपायर आहात. तुम्ही वारंवार चुका करत नाही. याबाबत काळजी करू नका. मी सचिनकडे माफी मागत नव्हतो. फक्त चांगले वाटावे म्हणून बोलत होतो आणि एकमेकांचे काम चांगले करता यावे यासाठी ती चर्चा महत्त्वाची होती. या चर्चेनंतर आमचा दोघांचा एकमेकांविषयीचा आदर आणखी वाढला, असे टॉफेल म्हणाले. अर्थात मी फक्त सचिला एकदाच चुकीचे बाद दिले नाही. त्यानंतर देखील एक-दोन वेळा माझ्याकडून सचिनबाबत चुका झाल्या. पण यामुळे आमच्या नात्यावर कोणताही परिणाम झाला नाही, असे त्यांनी सांगितले.

राम मंदिराच्या भूमिपूजनानंतर पाकिस्तान क्रिकेटपटूचे ट्विट सोशल मीडियावर व्हायरल
नवी दिल्ली: अयोध्येत पंतप्रधान नरेंद्र मोदी यांच्या हस्ते श्री राम मंदिराचे भूमिपूजन झाले. अनेक वर्षापासून ज्या क्षणाची रामभक्त वाट पाहत होते तो क्षण सर्वांनी अनुभवला. मोदी यांनी भूमिपूजनाचा दिवस ऐतिहासिकच नव्हे तर न भूतो ना भविषति असा केला. फक्त भारतातच नव्हे तर जगभरातील रामभक्तांना झालेला आनंद माध्यमांच्या माध्यमातून आणि सोशल मीडियातून दिसून येत होता. वाचा- राम मंदिराच्या या भूमिपूजनावर भारताचा शेजार असलेल्या पाकिस्तानमध्ये कोणाला आनंद झाला तर नक्कीच अश्चर्य वाटू शकेल. पण पाकिस्तानमधील एका क्रिकेटपटूने राम मंदिराच्या भूमिपूजनावर आनंद व्यक्त केला आहे. हा आनंद त्याने रामाचा फोटो शेअर करत सोशल मीडियावरून व्यक्त केला. आज जसे अयोध्यामध्ये राम मंदिराचे भूमिपूजन झाले. संपूर्ण देशात आनंदाचे वातावरण झाले. हा आनंद फक्त भारतापूरता मर्यादीत नाही तर विदेशात देखील लोक आनंद व्यक्त करत आहेत. पाकिस्तानमध्ये देखील काही लोक यामुळे आनंदी झाले आहेत, अशी पोस्ट पाकिस्तानचा क्रिकेटपटू यांना केली आहे. वाचा- संपूर्ण जगभरातील हिंदू लोकांसाठी हा ऐतिहासिक दिवस आहे. श्री राम आपले आदर्श आहेत. दानिश कनेरियाने न्यूयॉर्कच्या टाइम्स स्केअरच्या बिलबोर्डवर राम मंदिराचा फोटो ट्विट केला होता. पण नंतर तो फोटो त्याने डिलीट केला आणि रामाच्या नव्या फोटोसह आनंद व्यक्त करणारा मेसेज लिहला. गीता फोगाटच्या फोटोवरून सुरु झाला वाद भूमिपूजनानंतर गीता फोगाटने रा मंदिराबाबत एक ट्विट केले होते. यात जय, जय राम... ऐतिहासिक दिवस! असे म्हटले होते. कोणीही असा संदेश लिहीणे चुकीचे नाही. पण या ट्विटबरोबर गीताने जो काही फोटो वापरला त्यावरून चांगलाच गदारोळ झाला. वाचा- गीताने ट्विट करताना एक फोटो वापरला आहे. या फोटोमध्ये दिसत आहे. या राम मंदिराकडे पंतप्रधान नरेंद्र मोदी प्रभू रामचंद्र यांना घेऊन जात असल्याचे दाखवले आहे. पण यावेळी प्रभू रामचंद्र यांचे लहान रुप दाखवले आहे आणि ते मोदी यांचा हात पकडून राम मंदिरात जात असल्याचे दाखवले गेले.
