Sachin Tendulkar is struggling with his finger injury which he sustained during the first match in IPL 2012. There was a phase in Tendulkar's career when his injuries made people to talk about his retirement. In 2004 Sachin battled against a tough tennis elbow injury which made it very difficult for him even to grip the bat. But the brave Sachin drove through testing times and as always came out as a Champion, The Little Master!
