Sachin Tendulkar on Tuesday paid tribute to the legendary Sir Don Bradman on the occasion of the latter’s 111th birth anniversary.

Tendulkar had famously met Bradman along with Australian spin great Shane Warne during India’s tour of the country in 1998/99.
“A lot of people remember Sir Don Bradman for his extraordinary batting; I remember him more for his graciousness and sense of humour that I experienced when I had the privilege of spending some time with him in 1998.

Widely regarded as the greatest batsman of all time, it was under Bradman’s captaincy that Australia began their rise in cricket and he is still seen as a symbolic figure in the country’s sporting history.

Bradman’s mind boggling average of 99.94 in Tests still remains unbeaten.Bradman had famously said that Tendulkar’s batting style reminded him of his own.
