Sachin Tendulkar First Test Hundred

Thank You Joe and Sridhar :-)
I'm motivated enough, will continue as long as I enjoy: Sachin
Napier, Mar 26 (PTI) With runs flowing from his bat again, Sachin Tendulkar is in no mood to talk about retirement, saying he is motivated enough to keep going as long as he enjoys the game.
More than 29,000 international runs -- including 85 centuries -- under his belt, Tendulkar has little left to achieve in the world of cricket. The champion batsman, however, insists he has not run out of motivation yet and would go on as long as he continues performing.
"I'm not in a position to answer that," he said, in response to a question on how long he sees himself in international cricket.
"I've not made up my mind yet. I'm extremely happy to be in this position and enjoying every outing. It has been fantastic journey," he said.
"I have been through various challenges and ups and downs. It's all circles of life and I want to complete the circle.
"As long as I'm enjoying and giving my best, I'll continue to play. The day I start feeling otherwise, that will be the time to stop," he explained. PTI

Sachin TEndulkar interview on retirement, and India's progress.
Sachin’s other love: Tennis, F1
Bobilli Vijay Kumar
Napier: The Indian players had one eye on the scoreboard as New Zealand piled on runs on top of their agony; but some of them also had the other one on Melbourne, across the Tasman Sea.
Well, with the Grand Prix season beginning in less than 24 hours from now, the speed junkies would understandably be excited: most of them follow the races closely, anyway, enjoying the thrills and spills on the fast track, through the year.
“It was one of my greatest experiences,” said Sachin Tendulkar, during a casual conversation earlier on this tour. “The roar of the cars pumps up the adrenaline. I loved watching the action from the pit,” he said, with stars in his eyes. Last year, he managed to catch two races.
The little master-blaster has a soft corner for Team Ferrari, thanks partly to his association with Fiat. He owns a Scarlet Beauty, of course, and takes particular pride in taking it out on a spin incognito (basically when Mumbai is fast asleep). “There is nothing like watching sport at the venue, a stadium,” he explained even as a local rugby match was being aired on TV. “I am not much into rugby but I have seen a couple of games live and the atmosphere inside is electric,” he ruminated.
Tendulkar, of course, loves tennis and soccer too. He, along with some of his team members, had made it for a Man U match in 2007 when the Indian team was touring England. “The atmosphere was amazing. The involvement of fans, the singing, it’s just too much,” he said. His sweetest moment as a spectator, however, came last year at Wimbledon. “I was a guest in the Royal Box on the first Saturday. To my left was Martina Navratilova and to my right Billie Jean-King. I felt really, reall special,” he admitted.
Did they recognize you? Do they know you? “Oh yes, Martina follows cricket. In fact, most of the tennis players end up getting a close look at the game as the Australian Open and Wimbledon take place during the cricket season.
“I hear that Roger Federer is a big fan of cricket,” he added. Sachin, of course, is a big fan of Federer himself. :P “He walked by me during my last visit to Wimbledon but I didn’t get to meet him,” he sighed.
So what does he think of Federer’s in the next Grand Slam: the French. He simply smiled, shaking his head. “Nadal is unbeatable on clay,” he agreed. “I love Federer but I am now starting to like Nadal too.” The transformation, of co
urse, is happening thanks to Nadal’s grace.
