Today, when I saw him entering for batting I did not feel like he is going to retire and this was his last match. Just by watching him play on television I got goosebumps. I cannot imagine our Indian Cricket team without him. Nobody else can fill the gap and we will definitely miss him.
There is an incident I would like to share - My sister was due and she started getting her labor pain. India was playing opposite Australia then and Sachin was batting like anything. He had hit double century and when the match got over I took my sister to the hospital (laughs). Just after half an hour my niece was born.
No one can replace Sachin. But I would say Virat Kohli is playing good. I think the Indian One Day match team is the best in the last 20-30 years. The team is just perfect but only needs two or three good bowlers. All of them are young, energetic and are playing well. I feel wonderful but at the same time sad too. Unfortunately, I was busy with the press releases so could not watch the match at the stadium."
