Mumbai, March 02: Rated better than even Don Bradman by the likes of Nasser Hussain, Indian batting great Sachin Tendulkar today said he does not believe in comparisons and has a lot of respect for all cricketers.
After his historic knock of unbeaten 200 in the Gwalior ODI against South Africa, former England captain Nasser Hussain and a few others had described Tendulkar as the greatest batsman in the history of the game, even better than the iconic Bradman.
Tendulkar, however, refused to be drawn into a comparison.
“I never believed in comparisons. I respect every individual off the field too and it’s not about only Sir Don.
I respect them all. I’m happy to play for the country and am particularly happy when I do well and the team wins,” said Tendulkar who became the first batsman to hit a double century in a one dayer.
