Sachin Tendulkar recalls ( about Dilip Vengsarkar ) : “I had never seen Dilip cry. I had played international cricket with him but have never seen him cry like this.

Sachin Tendulkar recalls : “I felt we were in the race and can achieve the target. In the opposition tent, you can see people getting worried,” “Towards the end, we started to play our strokes. There was a brilliant stop at fine leg (Rajesh Puri had stopped a boundary), I still remember. If that ball had gone for four, we would have won the game there itself. One stop was also made in the last over. It was a nail-biting finish and till the end, no one knew who was going to win. It went to the wire, every inch mattered. Till then, nobody knew that Abey could hang around with the bat”

Sachin Tendulkar recalls : “After Abey got run out, everyone was sad, it was a big disappointment. We were so close, it was heartbreaking without a doubt. You don’t get such games anymore. These kind of matches stay with you forever. One can even say Haryana won because of that save on the boundary by Puri”

I suggest players not to get too attached to such reactions. Lead a balanced life, if you do well, you do not need to celebrate a lot and go over the top. And, when there are disappointments and failures, you don’t need to be depressed either. Focus on finding solutions, don’t focus on problems. If you focus on problems, there will always be problems. Each delivery is a question, focus on answers. If you have solutions, you will keep moving forward”
