No Plans Of Playing Alongside Arjun - Sachin Tendulkar

On playing along side his son, Arjun, he said, "I have never thought of it. I used to visit Bandra for his practice sessions. I just stand at non-striker stand. Just to see how he calls for single and twos. Beyond that, I have not thought of playing with him. It may happen at some exhibition match or club-level game. Arjun likes to watch cricket. I have not forced him to make cricket his career. He is passionate about the sport," he stated.

The master batsman also admitted that things didn't go as per plan in England and Australia. India lost eight consecutive Test matches against England and Australia last season. Tendulkar said that team India always go out there to perform well but sometimes it just does not work.

"Ideally, we want to win each and every match and that is how we want to prepare ourselves. But sometimes, it's humanly impossible. There are some ups and downs. The best of the teams have rather faced or seen the other side of the coin," he said.
