Some QUOTES ON SACHIN TENDULKAR Sachin Tendulkar ********************** -Success is a process. During that journey sometimes there are stones thrown at you, and you convert them into milestones – Sir Donald Bradman: I saw him (Sachin) playing on television and was 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 much the same as I used to play, and she looked at him on television and said yes, there is a similarity between the two...his compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel – Viv Richards on Sachin Tendulkar : 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 – Sunil Gavaskar : India’s fortune will depend on how many runs the little champion scores. There is no doubt Tendulkar is the real thing – Richie Benaud : He has defined cricket in his fabulous, impeccable manner. He is to batting what Shane Warne is to bowling -Waqar Younis : He can play that leg glance with a walking stick also. -Andy Flower :There are two kind of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the others. – Brian LARA : Sachin is a genius. I’m a mere mortal -From a fan at the SCG : Commit all your crimes when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed because even the Lord is watching – Paul The Stranglers : What we need is 10 Tendulkars – John Wright : I never coached Sachin Tendulkar, I gave him gentle advice when he asked for it -Shahrukh Khan, Indian actor : There was a big party where stars from bollywood and cricketers were invited. Suddenly, there was a big noise, all wanted to see approaching Amitabh Bachhan. Then Sachin entered the hall and Amitabh was leading the queue to get a grab of the genius!! “We did not lose to a team called India. We lost to a man called Sachin” – Mark Taylor, during the test match in Chennai (1997) Harder he works, the luckier he gets – Ian chappell 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 – Mahendra Singh Dhoni : I have joked before that there is a good chance that I might retire before Tendulkar We have had champions, we have had legends, but we have never had another Sachin Tendulkar and we never will – Time Magazine Commit all your sins when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed because even the lord is watching! -UK BANNER I’ll see god when I die but till then I’ll see Sachin – From a fan in Sharjah Th-Ricky Ponting : number of innings of his (Tendulkars) I have been able to sit back and watch, I think he is an amazing player. Look at his stats and records and its quite incredible for someone to have stayed in the game for 20 years.. He has set benchmarks for guys like me to chase him and get as close as we can. If I had to last 20 years, I would probably be batting in a wheelchair!! Aussie batsman who once was expected to overhaul Sachins records. The joy he brings to the millions of his countrymen, the grace with which he handles all the adulation and the expectations and his innate humility - all make for a one-in-a-billion individual. -Glen McGrath 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. His bat looks so heavy but he just waves it around like it’s a toothpick. – Brett lee Peter Roebuck: On a train from Shimla to Delhi, there was a halt at one of the stations. The train stopped by for few minutes as usual. Sachin was nearing a century, batting on 98. The passengers, railway officials, everyone on the train waited for Sachin to complete the century. This genius can stop time in India! Matthew Hayden: I have seen God, he bats at no. 4 for India Hashim Amla: Nothing bad can happen to us if were on a plane in India with Sachin Tendulkar on it
