"The last time I watched Sachin
was last week when he was on his
way to a spectacular 175 and once
again I felt that I was watching
a player who comes but once in a
century. It can be said that he
is the Bradman of our times and
I do feel privileged to have played
a lot of cricket against him.”
“Sachin always brought with
him an amazing sporting presence.
It was a captain's nightmare to
set a field for him when he was
in full flow. It was akin to getting
stuck in a tornado -- the noise
made it impossible to communicate
with the fielders.”
"The bowlers looked demoralized
and you could sense that Sachin
himself was delighted at the disarray
he created in the opposition. Whether
in India or elsewhere, there were
always enough fans to create a deafening
din whenever he was at his best."
