Sachin\u00a0played 200 Tests and 463 ODIs (and one Twenty20\u00a0International), scored 34,357 runs and 100 international\u00a0hundreds \u2014 that is great.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYounger players may reach No.1 over a period of 12 or 18\u00a0months \u2014 that\u2019s not great. That\u2019s having a good year. If you\u00a0can do it as long as Sachin did, only then you be considered\u00a0great,\u201d he further stated. Ponting chose five words to describe the iconic cricketer\u00a0\u2014 \u201ccompetitive, passionate, driven, composed, complete\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSachin is the greatest batsman I ever played with or\u00a0against, because he made batting look so simple. His technique\u00a0was always rock solid, but he still managed to take the game\u00a0away from you really quickly.<\/p>\n<p>He was the most rounded batsman\u00a0I have known,\u201d he wrote. Tendulkar\u2019s hunger to achieve his dreams is what has\u00a0impressed Ponting the most.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis abiding love for the game and pursuit of goals were\u00a0astonishing \u2014 just to keep motivating yourself every day for\u00a024 years to stay hungry and fit is what I admire so much.<\/p>\n<p>He\u00a0had dreams of winning a World Cup, and he finally got to do it\u00a0in his sixth tournament, in 2011.\u201d Ponting felt it was impossible \u201canyone will ever play 200\u00a0Tests again, or score 100 hundreds\u201d like Tendulkar did.
