He has left the field but continues to create a legacy for others to look up to.
A luminary in international cricket, the maker and breaker of records and the man who struck a chord with millions through his simplicity, Sachin Tendulkar gets candid about life after cricket, his success mantra and more. In conversation with Exhibit Magazine’s Editor-in-Chief, Ramesh Somani, we met an unexplored side to the master blaster.
ex: You have an unmatched record of scoring a century of centuries, something that is afresh in the minds of your fans till date. Do you recall how you felt when you scored your first ever century?
Very much so. More than being the 1st century, we saved the Test match which was more important. The first century is always special no matter how many centuries you score after that. This was in England in 1990, and if I am not mistaken, we were at 138 with 5 or 6 down, when Manoj Prabhakar and I had that partnership and we saved the game. We had to play out for over 2 sessions, and there were moments when they put a lot of pressure on us. But we were able to stand up to all those challenges. It was a big, moment for me. I still remember when I got back to the hotel room, my entire family and all my friends, almost 30 people must have called to congratulate me. The following day was 15th August, which is already special for the entire country. This was well timed with this moment.
ex: The infamous ‘nervous 90s’ was a challenging phase in your career. What advice would you give cricketers who are not in their best form?
