Cricket will be on the poorer side as the two legends of the game will be seen playing against each other one final time in Delhi. Rahul Dravid have bailed India out of trouble many a times and Sachin Tendulkar has been as entertaining as one could possibly be for the past 23 years and here is where it all ends. The final of the Champions League T20 will mark the end of a clash which is never to be seen again in a cricket field as Sachin and Rahul Dravid have already decided that this will be the last time they will be playing in T20 cricket. While Sachin is still available for selection in Test matches, Rahul Dravid would retire from all forms of the game after the Champions League final. 'The Wall' will walk down the Feroz Shah Kotla one final time as Rajasthan Royals would look to seal the trophy, a much needed one given the kind of controversies the Franchise has got involved in the recent past. Sachin is nearing his end and we should cherish every moment of whatever is left within him. The loss will be a collossal one as these guys have been the stalwarts of Indian cricket and there are still thousands of people in India who would line up to watch these two great players in full flow. But as they say it all good things come to an end and such is sports it is not like any other profession. It comes with a shelf life and most of us feel extremely lucky to be a part of a generation which has seen the likes of Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, V V S Laxman, Sourav Ganguly play. The Champions League final in one way would be there in the books of history as the day when the world saw the last of Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar in the shorter version of the game, Not many would like to miss the chance of watching Rahul Dravid taking stance one final time at the Feroz Shah Kotla.
