Toh Woh sab dekh ke Tendulkar ki na koi replacement thi na hai, aaj ke date mein [You also see the character, you also see the behaviour and depth. Don't jump in the air after hitting a century, and when you get out, then don't get too disappointed. So by considering that there was no replacement for Tendulkar and you won't find one even in today]."

Sachin Tendulkar is hailed as one of the greatest ever to have played the same. He is the only batter to hit 100 centuries in international cricket. With 34,357 across formats, he is the leading run-getter in international cricket.
