Indian team has to look ahead: Tendulkar
Indo-Asian News Service
Zirakpur, May 13, 2010
Despite being disappointed with the early ouster of the Indian cricket team from the ongoing World Twenty20 in West Indies, Sachin Tendulkar still considers them as the No 1 team.
"We have to remain positive; ups and downs are part of life, not only in cricket but everywhere. We have to ignore all the negative aspects and look forward to improve our performance," said Tendulkar, when asked in Zirakpur, Punjab on Thursday about the patchy performance of the Indian team in the World Twenty20.
"There is always some room for improvement. I know that it's disappointing but we have to look ahead, we should not forget that India is the number one team in the world," he said.
On the issue of the Indian batsmen's weakness against rising deliveries, Tendulkar said: "Players know their responsibility very well. We have to look for options to tackle the short-pitch balls. Gambhir (Gautam Gambhir) is still the same person, he has not changed."
Tendulkar was in town, around 10 kilometers from the state capital Chandigarh, to participate in an event organised by a cement company.
Asked why he has kept himself away from World Twenty20, Tendulkar said: "In 2007, I opted out of the World Cup because I thought that I was not fully fit to play at that time. But later I preferred to keep myself away from it because I did not want to disturb the winning combination of the team."
Sachin had enjoyed a good run in the recently concluded third edition of Indian Premier League (IPL). Mumbai Indians, under his captaincy, had reached the finals but lost to Chennai Super Kings.
"IPL cricket has both advantages and disadvantages. Many cricketers return to their form after playing in it," stated Tendulkar.
On his record ODI double century against South Africa earlier this year, he said: "I never count my records and I only consider them as my contribution to the team. Making 200 was good but it was quite normal. We want to win the 2011 World Cup. It is the dream of the whole country. We have to improve upon our weaknesses and capitalise on our strengths."

Tendulkar tweet raises Rs 67L for cancer kids
TNN, May 15, 2010, 01.19am IST
MUMBAI: Call it an outpouring of faith or a measure of star-struck fans. But a single Tweet from Indian willow star Sachin Tendulkar could actually change the lives of many cancer-afflicted children. Twitter fans of the cricketer from across the country and the world — from Malad to Manhattan and from Fort to Florida — reached out to help children after he tweeted on Thursday. :smokesmirk:
In less than 24 hours since the cricketer tweeted on the social networking site for support, the kitty of the Sachin's Crusade Against Cancer in Children showed almost Rs 67 lakh. Several corporate houses and individuals ha signed up to dine with the Tendulkars on May 27 even as around a hundred individuals had electronically sent in sums ranging from Rs 100 to Rs 5,000 for the cause. "It is all about changing goodwill into support for a good cause," says Dr P Jagannath, the cancer surgeon whose website indiacancer.org has roped in Tendulkar for the charity drive.
The campaign's aim is to raise Rs 1 crore as the initial corpus. This would help the group raise Rs 10 lakh each year to help treatment of about 20 cancer-afflicted children. Cancer care is extremely expensive as it involves recurring costs for medicines, tests and surgery. Costs for some childhood cancers run into lakhs. "This campaign seeks to raise funds for children afflicted by cancer anywhere in India and under treatment in any good hospital," says the doctor.
In Mumbai in particular, it is a well-known fact that charity helps parents\patients get treatment. Be it public hospitals such as KEM, Sion or Nair Hospitals or private trust hospitals such as Hinduja, Jaslok or Lilavati, donations into the poor box funds help many pateints from humble backgrounds. Temple trusts and community funding are other known funding agencies.
Tweeting about his new drive on Thursday afternoon, Tendulkar exhorted his 2.85 lakh followers in Twitter-dom to "Join hands with me to give a new lease of life and hope to children afflicted from cancer". Fans can either chip in sums ranging rom Rs 2,000 to Rs 25,000 for the cause and get personally signed mementoes or meet the star to make higher contributions. On May 27, Tendulkar is hosting an exclusive charity dinner in the city for the cause.
Dinner for one would mean shelling out Rs 50,000 while a family outing with the Tendulkars would work out to Rs 1 lakh.

Sachin saves life of former teammate
New Delhi: Sachin Tendulkar has saved India when in dire straits several times on the cricket field, but now he has saved the life of a former cricketer as well.
The little master has reportedly paid the bill for the operation of a former team mate, Dalbir Singh Gill. Gill and Sachin were teammates in the india Under-17 team once.
Gill met with a road accident in 2002, after which he suffered major injuries to his legs. He was in coma for eight months and had lost the power to walk.
Gill's mother says she had written to Tendulkar telling of her son's plight, and he offered to help. Now Gill has undergone a hip replacement surgery, which Sachin generously paid for.
:notworthy: :clap:
