Tendulkar's career a lesson for all youngsters: Miandad
Karachi: Former Pakistan captain Javed Miandad today lavished praise on batting great Sachin Tendulkar and said the young cricketers in the sub-continent should follow his example if they are serious about carving out a career in cricket.
Miandad was all praise for the Tendulkar, who completed 17,000 ODI runs in the fifth one-day international against Australia at Hyderabad today.
"I think the way Tendulkar has handled his career and lasted for so long, keeping his passion for runs alive, is a lesson for budding young cricketers in Pakistan and India," Miandad said.
"Youngsters should adopt Tendulkar as their role model if they want to progress in the sport," he added.
Miandad said he admired the way Tendulkar had kept his hunger alive for runs despite having such a long career.

India has lost so many matches in the past just because of nerves and lack of commonsense. If Tendulkar would have been playing for team like Australia, he could have won many more matches on his own. It just bafling how we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory once Tendulkar departed. Australia are No 1 not just like that! Any youngster coming in the team knows how to handle the pressure right from the first game. Mckay is just one example..

We have seen the referral system tried out at Wimbledon and it worked really well. There is no reason to believe that it will not work in cricket too.

The tourists missed Strauss's conviction in marshalling the side in the field and his batting is always valuable because he is such a fluid player when he is in form.
