"To Sachin, the man we all want to be"
- Andrew Symonds wrote on an aussie t-shirt he autographed specially for Sachin.
“Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is
something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure. Something that
allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even those who are
gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom. When he goes out to
bat, people switch on their TV sets and switch off their lives."
- BBC on Sachin

- Navjot Singh Sidhu on TV
He can play that leg glance with a walking stick also.
- Waqar Younis
Sachin Tendulkar has often reminded me of a veteran army colonel who
has many medals on his chest to show how he has conquered bowlers all
over the world. I was bowling to Sachin and he hit me for two fours in a
row. One from point and the other in between point and gully. That was the
last two balls of the over and the over after that we (SA) took a wicket and
during the group meeting i told Jonty (Rhodes) to be alert and i know a
way to pin Sachin. And i delivered the first ball of my next over and it was a
fuller length delevery outside offstump. And i shouted catch. To my
astonishment the ball was hit to the cover boundary. Such was the
brilliance of Sachin. His reflex time is the best I have ever seen. Its like
1/20th of a sec. To get his wicket better not prepare. Atleast u wont regret if
he hits you for boundaries.
- Allan Donald
