sachin ..

quotes (http://sports.in.msn.com/cricket/article.aspx?cp-documentid=3349169)

Matt Hayden:"I have seen God, he bats at no. 4 for India"

Andy Flower:"There are 2 kind of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the others."

Shane Warne: "I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player."

BBC Sports, on Sachin Tendulkar
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 television sets and switch off their lives.

Navjot Singh Sidhu:"India me aap Prime Minister ko ek Baar Katghare me khada kar sakte hain..Par Sachin Tendulkar par Ungli nahi utha Sakte.."

Barry Richards: "Sachin is cricket's God!"

Anil Kumble:"I am fortunate that I've to bowl at him only in the nets!"

Peter Roebuck:"On a train from Shimla to Delhi, there was a halt in one of the stations. The train stopped by for few minutes as usual. Sachin was nearing century, batting on 98. The passengers, railway officials, everyone on the train waited for Sachin to complete the century. This Genius can stop time in India!!"
