'Sachin Tendulkar used to compete with Virat Kohli': Sehwag's freak story of Master Blaster's incredible strength

Hindustan Times  

The world is no stranger to Sachin Tendulkar's feat as a batter, but not many are aware of the Master Blaster's incredible fitness levels. From the 1990s when Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid burst on to the scene to early 2000s when Indian cricket saw the rise of Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh and even Virat Kohli, Tendulkar knew if he had to survive, he would need to take care of his body better than before. Back in the day, weight training wasn't as common for Indian cricketers as it is today, but whatever little Tendulkar used to do, went a long way in prolonging his career. Besides, there was one more incident which Sehwag isn't sure of as he hasn't seen it with his own eyes, but if true, promises to add layers to Tendulkar's aura even further.
