Sachin Tendulkar, one of the greatest cricket player of the world, should slice down his limited over emergence in the ODI’s  to lengthen his Test career, feels the former Australian captain, Mr. Allan Border. “I have a very high respect for Sachin and his success in the international cricket. Though I think, it could be better to appear less in limited over matches. It can help him actually to prolong his Test career,” Allan Border said.

Allan Border, who made 11,174 runs in 156 Tests for Australia, feels that Tendulkar’s capability of handling pressure is the tune following his success in the very international cricket. Sachin Tendulkar, who has already scored 12,773 runs in 159 Tests, since 1989 time when he made his first appearance against Pakistan at Karachi.

Allan added that “To represent your country for 20 years in this international ring is quite a difficult task to do. There remains a lot of pressure on any international player and I have to say truly that Sachin has always managed it brilliantly,” The brand representative of Airtel Delhi Half Marathon, which is going to be held on Sunday said that  “Similar to others, his career has also been worried by several injuries. But still after numerous ups and downs, Sachin has still maintained his class of excellence”.
