Little Master Works His Magic, Fit For Australia Series

Bangalore/Kolkata: Sachin Tendulkar is back where he most loves to be and it shows. It's not that the Mumbaikar feels out of place anywhere else, but put him on a cricket ground, be it for a match or a training session, and it's back to being the little boy who can't wait to get to the chocolate, placed tantalisingly just out of reach. In Bangalore, for the training camp ahead of the four-Test series against Aussies.

"My eyes performance and not record," said fit Tendulkar, he also belittled talk about surpassing another milestone, going past Brian Lara to become the world's highest run-getter in Test.

BCCI to seniors: Pick your farewell stage. Call it voluntary retirement scheme or early separation scheme. You can also give it any other name you please, but the BCCI is committed to offering a clutch of senior players an opportunity to make dignified exit from international cricket.

The BCCI has already made its stand clear, saying that the senior players should approach the Board with their future plans so that they can be accorded an honourable farewell. There is no running away from the fact that the likes of Anil Kumble, Sourav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman are at the fag end of their careers.
