Sachin is ageless: Adam Gilchrist
Mohali, Apr 7 (PTI) Sachin Tendulkar would be 42 when
the next World Cup comes around but former Australian batsman
Adam Gilchrist says the Indian batting icon could well be seen
in action in the mega-event as he is "ageless".
Gilchrist heaped praise on Tendulkar, who would be
celebrating his 38th birthday on April 24.
"Sachin is ageless," Gilchrist told PTI here.
"He has obviously shown his desire and hunger to
continue and that's great for him. Sachin is one of the iconic
figures in world cricket history," he said.
Speaking in a lighter vein, Gilchrist said that he
would not be surprised to see Tendulkar playing in the next
World Cup.
"Anything is possible with Sachin," Gilchrist, the
veteran of 96 Tests and 287 ODIs, said smilingly.
Former Australian all-rounder Michael Bevan, who is
coaching the Kings XI Punjab, said Tendulkar just loves his
batting.
"He certainly spends lot of time at the crease. He has
been batting extremely well and when you are part of the
successful team, it is always more enjoyable," 40-year-old
Bevan told PTI here.
