The game of cricket is bigger than any player: Kapil

Kolkata, Sun, 08 Jul 2012 NI Wire

Legend Indian cricketer Kapil Dev has said that the game of cricket is bigger than any player and the records of Sachin Tendulkar will also be broken one day. However he praised Sachin Tendulkar for his dedication to the game and his discipline life. He was addressing a programme of Akash Institute here.

Former Indian Captain said that when we were playing we used to think that whether the future will see any greater batsman than Sunil Gavaskar. But we were wrong. There have been greater players than Gavaskar, because the game of cricket is bigger than any player.

Commenting on the Sachin Tendulkar, he said that Sachin has played brilliantly throughout the career and has accumulated huge records but his records will also be broken one day because this is cricket.

During the end of my cricket career there was a lot of hype regarding two young talents: one was Sachin Tendulkar and the other one was Vinod Kambli.

"Both of them were very talented. But now look where Sachin has reached. Kambli couldn't make it big because of his lack of discipline," he added.
