1st visit to Wankhede as fan to taking Gavaskar's dressing room seat, Sachin during statue unveiling

After being immortalised in the form of a statue at the iconic Wankhede Stadium, India's cricketing colossus Sachin Tendulkar shared some of the previously unheard stories from his decorated cricketing career.

Sachin's life-sized statue was unveiled at the Wankhede Stadium on the eve of India's World Cup clash against Sri Lanka. The statue is dedicated to 50 years of Tendulkar's life and was installed by MCA near the Sachin Tendulkar Stand at the stadium.

At the unveiling of the statue, Sachin shared some memories from his career that not many know. One of those memories was from his final Test against West Indies in 2013 at the Wankhede stadium.

"The 2013 was the most emotional day of my life on a cricket field. I remember batting against West Indies and they (broadcasters) started showing my mother on the big screen. I was trying hard not to lose focus. Seeing my family members on the big screen, I struggled to stay focused at the crease. I couldn't help but wonder if the broadcaster was supporting us or the West Indies, as they were trying to engage the crowd while the Test had still not been done and dusted. These are memories that bring a smile to your face," Sachin said at the event.

In Sri Lanka, people are mourning the death of Uncle Percy. When you were in Colombo two months ago, you took the trouble to visit him. And if you can talk to us about how the Indian team interacted with him over the years and if you have any message for his family?

 

[Rohit Sharma:]

 

Yeah, I was lucky to get an opportunity to meet him in Sri Lanka during the Asia Cup and he's been such a great fan of cricket. Of course, Sri Lankan team but he's probably the first ever fan that I met, who was so genuine and the support from his side towards his team, towards the players was fantastic to see. When I first went to Sri Lanka in 2006 actually for U19 World Cup, he was there, but I was a little boy, I had no idea about how things work outside cricket field. So, I was not too much into that. But when I went with the Indian team for the first time in 2008, I saw him for the first time then and I saw how passionate he was. I got lucky as well to meet his family, his son, his grandson, their family is very sweet, I went with few of my team members as well. Well yeah, it's a sad loss, you know sad loss to the cricketing fraternity because in my eyes, he was the number one supporter of cricket at that point in time. Obviously, there have been so many fans now, but the first ever fan, cricket fan I saw was him. So yeah, it's a sad moment for all of us.

Cricket World Cup 2023 | India vs Sri Lanka Playing 11 live updates | Rohit Sharma on his batting in powerplay

Rohit Sharma on his batting in powerplay and why how he is taking selfless approach while batting. Excerpts from pre-match press conference

[Reporter:]

 

Your selfless approach is being appreciated in this World Cup, no milestones, you are just looking to hit well. You also have the highest runs in power play – there have been some suggestions from former cricketers that it will be better if you become a little selfish. You will last longer.

 

[Rohit Sharma:]

 

Yes. I'm enjoying my batting. But obviously, keeping the situation of the team in mind, it's not like I just have to go and spin the bat. I have to spin it well, play well and keep the team in a good situation. This is my mindset. When I open, the scoreboard starts from zero. So as a batsman I have to think, I have to set the tone for the game. So, I have that advantage or you can call it a benefit that I am starting the batting and there is no pressure of wickets because everything is 0-0, so when you have to start like that, you can be fearless and you can play the way you want to play but then last game we were put under pressure a little bit in the power play. We lost three wickets. So, the game should be changed.

 

So, I think as a batsman my focus is on what the team needs at that time. What is needed in the first over, what is needed in the fifth over, what is needed in the tenth over. What is the team's score, how many runs are they chasing, how much score is good on the ground? All these things. I think about all these things when I bat. So whatever situation demands at that time, I try to play according to the situation.

Rohit Sharma on Hardik Pandya's availability in coming matches; Excerpts from pre-match press conference

Reporter

The World Cup is going well for us. We've won a lot of games. But Hardik Pandya, some reports suggest that he has left NCA. So, what is the update? Is he close to match fitness? Till when will he join the team? When will he play the next match?

 

[Rohit Sharma:]

 

No, see, his procedure after the injury is very positive. Whatever procedure he had to undergo after the injury, and the NCA, there were a lot of positive things. Right now, he is not available for tomorrow's match. But it is an injury that we have to see every day how much percent he has improved, how much recovery has been made, how much bowling has been done, how much batting has been done. So, on a day-to-day basis, we would like to take a call. Because we are watching for the World Cup, so obviously, the matches are taking place every 3 - 4 days. We are watching the situation daily. So, it's possible, as he is progressing, it's possible, hopefully, we'll get a chance to see him as soon as possible. That's all I can say for now.

Cricket World Cup 2023 | India vs Sri Lanka Playing 11 live updates | Rohit Sharma on air pollution

Excerpts from Rohit Sharma pre-match press conference

[Reporter:]

 

I just wanted to ask you, you spoke about the pollution in Mumbai. Do you think that is a cause of concern? And also do you think the culture that is there in Mumbai, future generations could be affected by that? Because it is prevalent in Mumbai as well as Delhi.

[Rohit Sharma:]

 

I mean, in an ideal world, you don't want a situation like this, but I'm pretty sure the concerned people are taking the necessary steps to avoid these kind of situation. It's not ideal, everyone knows that. But obviously, looking at our future generation, your kids, my kids, obviously, it's quite important that they get to live without any fear. So, yeah, every time I get to speak outside of cricket, if we are not discussing cricket, I always talk about this, that you know we have to look after our future generation.

Cricket World Cup 2023 | India vs Sri Lanka Playing 11 live updates

Twelve years on from that dream April 2011 night when a country of billions landed in a frenzy of delight, India take on Sri Lanka in another World Cup clash here on Sunday, albeit one that is poles apart from being termed an encore.
 

If that World Cup final was truly a battle of titans in every sense, the impending contest is more or less a battle of the unequals. India have hitherto marched on immaculately in pursuit of a third title and Sri Lanka have lost more than what they have won.
 

Unbeaten in six straight games and largely unchallenged for longer spans, India have displayed traits of being a champion side which has the knack of staging remarkable fightbacks.
