Sportstar archives - Sachin Tendulkar: ‘I would consider myself a lucky guy’

The Hindu  

They say much and yet don’t say much. Six summers may have been too long for someone like Tendulkar to have a near-perfect season; exactly the same number of years Tendulkar played in all kinds of cricket – from club cricket as an 11-year-old to Irani Cup – before earning his India cap. I don’t want to compel you to pursue something.” This sort of advice and freedom helped me to concentrate on my cricket. That was the time the family members may have thought that I would become successful playing cricket. I still remember that if we had to get 300 runs to win a match, we would ensure that we scored only 280 that day so that we could knock off the runs in two or three overs the next morning and see another movie or go to the beach.
