Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I saw him playing on television andwas struck by his technique, so I asked my wife to come look at him.Now I never saw myself play, but I feel that this player is playing muchthe same as I used to play, and shelooked at him on Television and said yes, there is a similarity between the two...hi compactness, technique, stroke production... it allseemed to gel! in reference to Sachin Tendulkar. - Sir Don Bradman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 India's fortune will depend on how many runs the little championscores. There is no doubt Tendulkar is the real thing. - Sunil Gavaskar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 He is Sachin Tendulkar. I hope he stays Sachin Tendulkar. We need a new player, a player in his own way. He has a technique which is the hallmark of a great player. Everything indicates that he will be a great player and I am sure he willprove me right. Reminds me of Barry Richards. - Eddie Barlow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 He is a perfectly balanced batsman and knows perfectly well when to attack and when to play defensive cricket. He has developed the ability to treat bowlers all over the world with contempt and can destroy any attack with utmost ease. - Greg Chappell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player. - Shane Warne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 I think he is marvellous. I think he will fit in whatever category of Cricket that has been played or will be played, from the first ball that has ever been bowled to the last ball that's going to be. He can play in any era and at any level. I would say he's 99.5% perfect. - Viv Richards on Sachin Tendulkar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Today, he showed the world why he is considered the best batsman around. Some of the shots he played were simply amazing. Earlier, opposing teams used to feel that Sachin's dismissal meant they could win the game. Today, I feel that the Indian players, too, feel this way. - Wasim Akram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure. Something that allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even those who are gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom. When he goes out to bat, people switch on their television sets and switch off their lives. - BBC Sports, on Sachin Tendulkar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 I Was fielding in the covers Tendulkar came out to bat in his debut Test at Karachi. I still remember Waqar Younis was at his peak form at that time. Tendulkar tried to drive Waqar through the covers off his very firstball in Test cricket but was beaten all ends up. But I walked to captainImran Khan and told him 'this kid looks very good' and Imran agree with me. - Abdul Qadir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 I have watched a lot of Tendulkar and we have spoken to each other a lot. He has it in him to be among the very best. - Sir Garfield Sobers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Sometime back I had written a piece that said that Sachin's the master and Lara a genius with his head high up somewhere. That's it! - Peter Roebuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Sachin is an attacker. He has much more power than Sunny. He wants to be the one to set the pace. He has to be on top. That's the buzz about him. - Jeff Thompson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Tendulkar is the most complete batsman I have stood behind. I saw the hundred in Perth on a bouncy pitch with Hughes, McDermott and Whitney gunning for him he only had 60-odd when No 11 came in. I've seen him against Warne too. - Ian Healy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Sachin's the best. I've had this viewsince I saw him score that hundred in Sydney in 1992. He's the most composed batsman I've ever seen. - Mike Coward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 The pressure on me is nothing as compared to Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin, like God, must never fail.

Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 His life seems to be a stillness in a frantic world...

Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 It was one of the greatest innings Ihave ever seen. There is no shame being beaten by such a great player, Sachin is perhaps only next to the Don. - Steve Waugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rear Window Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 You might pitch a ball on the off stump and think you have bowled a good ball and he walks across and hits it for two behind midwicket.
