Mumbai: Breaking News! While hailing Sachin Tendulkar as the greatest cricketer in the history, cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar wanted him not to stop here and set more records in the coming days.
Sunny was in full praise for Sachin Tendulkar, who became the first batsman in ODI history to hit a double century.
"He is the greatest batsman the game has ever seen. There is just no question about that. See his record! Who else has got 90-plus centuries, 17000-plus runs in ODIs and 13000-plus runs in Test cricket?" asked Gavaskar.
Gavaskar also said that Sachin should aim at hitting a triple hundred in test cricket and probably more than that. "He should, may be, look for a Test innings of 450 or an ODI knock of 250. And then he himself wants to win next year’s World Cup", said Sunny.
"There is a little boy in Tendulkar who wants to keep playing. That spirit keeps him going. It’s absolutely incredible how he keeps playng. A lot of others with his record would have had said ‘enough’, but I guess there is no word called enough in Tendulkar’s dictionary", he concluded.
