Cricket's highest run-scorer in Tests and ODIs was on Thursday present at the Rashtrapati Bhavan Vimarsh Shrinkhala event where eminent personalities share their life's journey with people.

He spoke about how sport treats everyone equally. "You might be in good form but someone else is not and someone else is in good form and you are not. As a team you need to stick by each other during good and bad times. You need to trust your partner," Tendulkar said. He regaled the audience with anecdotes from his playing days.

India tour as good a test as you can have for Champions Trophy: Buttler

It hasn't quite gone the way England would have liked but skipper Jos Buttler on Wednesday said the ongoing tour of India is "as good a preparation as you can have" for this month's Champions Trophy given the similarities in conditions with Pakistan where his team will be based for the event. Buttler also believes that veteran batter Joe Root will play a pivotal role in both the ODI series against India, starting Thursday, and the upcoming Champions Trophy, given his experience. England, coming off a disappointing 1-4 T20I series loss, have received a much-needed boost with Root's return. The seasoned batter, who has 171 ODIs under his belt, recently enjoyed a successful stint in SA20 with Paarl Royals, further reinforcing his form. "Root is one of the great players of the game, so in all the formats here he's obviously been a vital part of ODI cricket for England for a long time," Buttler told reporters on the eve of the first ODI here. "He's got loads of experience in ODI cricket

English batters will fare better against Chakravarthy in ODIs: Pietersen

England great Kevin Pietersen on Tuesday termed Varun Chakravarthy's inclusion in the Indian squad for three ODIs against England as "a great decision" but backed the visitors to fare better against the right-arm spinner in the longer version. Chakravarthy was all over England in the five-T20I series taking 14 wickets in India's 4-1 series win, following which he has been added to the ODI side with the series starting in Nagpur on Thursday. "The English batters would be better against him in the one-dayers because they can spend more time. It's a longer format, not every ball is an event. But I think it is a great decision (to add Chakravarthy)," Pietersen told media on the sidelines of the launch of Dram Bell Scotch Whisky. Pietersen termed England's loss in T20Is as a "disaster", adding that the series would have been levelled in Pune if a like-for-like concussion substitution for Shivam Dube had been used instead of tearaway quick Harshit Rana. "It was a disappointing series f
