The recently-retired Indian batting stalwart, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dravid-c2229, also hailed his former team-mate and the legendary batsman for reaching a milestone that is likely to remain unsurpassed.
"...he has done so many things, be it scoring the highest number of Test and one-day runs or scoring a century of international centuries," said Dravid speaking to the media reporters on Friday evening after Sachin scored his historic hundredth international
ton, after remaining stagnant at 99 centuries for more than a year.
"What he has done is set a benchmark for future generations which, probably, would be almost impossible for anyone to emulate. He has created a new milestone...Like overtaking Bradman's average appears almost impossible today, Sachin's century feat too will
in all probability stay forever," the former middle order mainstay of Indian batting added further.

his skilful batting but also a wonderfully alert mind.
