Having silenced his detractors with a classy one-day international century, Sachin Tendulkar
today said he had been in the game long enough to know about his
batting and never paid heed to others views.
"I always bat as I feel is the correct way to bat. I have
played long enough to know what is good for me. I do not want to know what others
are thinking," Tendulkar said after India's 160-run win in the fourth and
final one-dayer against the West Indies here.
Tendulkar, who faced criticism during India's tour of South
Africa, hit a 76-ball 100 for his 41st one-day hundred.
"I always knew that I was batting well and getting decent
scores, but somehow was not converting them into big scores. It was important
for us today," said the Mumbaikar who was adjudged man of the match as
well as the series which India won 3-1.
Captain Rahul Dravid said the series win against the
West Indies was significant in building the team's confidence in view of the
upcoming World Cup in the Caribbean.
