"Sometimes you get so engrossed in watching batsmen like Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar

"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

"Tuzhe pata hai tune kiska catch chhoda hai?"

- Wasim Akram to Abdul Razzaq when the latter dropped Sachin's catch in 2003 WC.

- M. L. Jaisimha

"The joy he brings to the millions of his countrymen, the grace with which he handles all the adulation and the expectations and his innate humility - all

make for a one-in-a-billion individual," -  Glen McGrath

"I can be hundred per cent sure that Sachin will not play for a minute longer when he is not enjoying

himself. He is still so eager to go out there and play. He will play as long as he feels he can play,"

- Anjali Tendulkar

Question: Who do you think is the most important celebrity ? Shah Rukh Khan: There was a big party where stars from

Ungli nahi utha Sakte.. آ“ - Navjot Singh Sidhu on TV

He can play that leg glance with a walking stick.

- Waqar Younis

'I will see God when I die, but till then I will look at Sachin'

- A banner in Sharjah

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. I delivered the first ball of my next over and it was a fuller length delivery

outside off stump. I shouted catch. To my astonishment the ball was hit to the cover boundary. Such is the brilliance of Sachin. His reflex time is the best i

have ever seen. It is like 1/20th of a sec. To get his wicket, better not prepare. At least you wont regret if he hits you for boundaries.

Allan Donald  

On a train from Shimla to Delhi, there was a halt at one of the stations. The train stopped for few minutes as usual. Sachin

was nearing a 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!! - Peter Rebouck - Aussie journalist

"Sachin cannot cheat. He is to cricket what (Mahatma) Gandhiji was to politics. It's clear

discrimination. " - NKP Salve, former Union Minister when Sachin was

accused of ball tempering

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

- Andy Flower

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

- Mathew Hayden

"Commit all your sins when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed

because even God is watching him" - A hoarding in England

NOW THIS ONE IS PROBABLY THE BEST AND THE CUTEST OF THE LOT

"Even my father's name is Sachin Tendulkar." Tendulkar's daughter, Sara, told her class, after the teacher informed them of a restaurant of the same

name in Mumbai!!!
