Here is what his Mates say about him:  (from Cricinfo.com)

"Come on Sachin my friend get your 200. World record to please! Glad I'm not bowling to him today ha ha ha."

Tendulkar's old pal Shane Warne tweets his excitement as he nears the double-century

 

"I thought the way he celebrated when he reached his 200 epitomised the man's persona. There was no running laps around the field, no aggressive gestures, nothing over-the-top. He did what he always does, raised both his arms, closed his eyes for a moment and quietly acknowledged that it had been done."

Anil Kumble applauds a long-time team-mate 

"He has always respected the game and is dedicated to it. But I think this is not enough for him. He is hungry and I am sure he will keep creating new records. He is a dedicated student of the game and is still keen to learn things."

Ramakant Achrekar, Tendulkar's childhood coach

"He is my favourite player. I had said that one day he would go on to break all batting records and now you see him scoring runs and runs."

Javed Miandad kinda saw it coming

 

"Whatever record is seen to be impossible to achieve, he makes it possible. That's all I can say. It seems as he's getting older, he is becoming more and more mature. No wonder Sir Donald Bradman saw himself in the way Sachin bats."

King of parsimony Bapu Nadkarni is not parsimonious with his praise
