Sir Don Bradman
I saw him playing on television and was struck by his technique, so I asked my wife to come look at him. Now I never saw myself play, but I feel that this player is playing much the same as I used to play, and she looked at him on Television and said yes, there is a similarity between the two...hi compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel! in reference to Sachin Tendulkar.
Dennis Lillee:
If I've to bowl to Sachin, I'll bowl with my helmet on. He hits the ball so hard.

Brain Lara
Sachin is a genius. I'm a mere mortal.
Sunil Gavaskar:
India's fortune will depend on how many runs the little champion scores. There is no doubt Tendulkar is the real thing

Allan Donald
"Sachin Tendulkar has often reminded me of a veteran army colonel who has
many medals on his chest to show how he has conquered bowlers all over the
world".

Matt Hayden
"I have seen God, he bats at no. 4 for India".
Peter Roebuck:
"On a train from Shimla to Delhi, there was a halt in one of the stations. The train stopped by for few minutes as usual. Sachin was nearing century, batting on 98. The passengers, railway officials, everyone on the train waited for Sachin to complete the century. This Genius can stop time in India!!"

Glenn McGrath
I still think Tendulkar is the best batsmen in the world ahead of Steve Waugh and Lara.
Shane Warne:
I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player.

Viv Richards
I think he is marvelous. I think he will fit in whatever category of Cricket that has been played or will be played, from the first ball that has ever been bowled to the last ball that's going to be. He can play in any era and at any level. I would say he's 99.5% perfect.
Andy Flower:
"There are 2 kind of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the others."
Richie Benaud:
He has defined cricket in his fabulous, impeccable manner. He is to batting what Shane Warne is to bowling.
Geoffrey Boycott:
Technically, you can't fault Sachin. Seam or spin, fast or slow nothing is a problem.
Anil Kumble:
"I am fortunate that I've to bowl at him only in the nets!"
Greg Chappell:
He is a perfectly balanced batsman and knows perfectly well when to attack and when to play defensive cricket. He has developed the ability to treat bowlers all over the world with contempt and can destroy any attack with utmost ease.
Barry Richards:
Sachin is cricket's God!
Andrew Symonds:
"To Sachin, the man we all want to be"
What Symonds wrote on an aussie t-shirt he autographed specially for Sachin.
Ian Chappell:
Harder he works, the luckier he gets.
Mark Taylor:
"We did not lose to a team called India...we lost to a man called Sachin" - during the test match in Chennai (1997)

Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure.
Something that allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even those who are gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom.
When he goes out to bat, people switch on their television sets and switch off their lives.
