Horoscope of Sachin Tendulkar
In Sachin Tendulkar's horoscope, Sun and Mars exalted made him the world's greatest batsman. His birthstar is Pooradam. Jupiter and Mercury are neechabhanga thus fortifying the horoscope.

Mars rules sports and his exaltation has made him a champion cricketer. That he will achieve 15000 runs in ODIs is only a matter of time. Also overtake Gavaskar's record of 34 Test hundreds ! A powerful Dhana Yoga is caused by the exaltation of Mars in the House of wealth. High Bhagya is decreed by Sun, the 9th lord, exalted in the 5th. In the initial stages Rahu Dasa had given him some injuries but now he has overcome all that. Neechabhanga Jupiter in the lunar second has catapulted him to dizzy heights of fame. Rahu Dasa will see that he will rise furthur in the realm of cricket.
