"He is a brilliant player. We all know how well he has done and all I can say is that don't put pressure on him, let him play," said Sachin Tendulkar on the Virat Kohli match winning inning of 183 runs in 148 balls on Sunday against Pakistan.
"Rohit also batted very well. He showed a lot of composure. The way he built the partnership with Virat in the Pakistan game was very important for us," he said on Rohit Sharma's inning of 68 runs against Pakiskan. Kohli and Sharma made 172 runs together for the third wicket.
"The pressure is off. It was a difficult phase and all of us had to wait for it for a long time. But it has made everyone realise, including me, that even after scoring 99 hundreds, it is not easy to score another one," said Sachin, on his 100th ton after a long time.
"We go out to win every match and sometimes it's not possible to win every match and sometimes the opposition plays better cricket than you and that is what happened. I would not want to take the credit away from them (Bangladesh). I think they played well.", Tendulkar said on India's exit from the Asia Cup.
