Legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar was conferred with the membership
of Order of Australia (AM), here on Tuesday. The cricketer was
presented with the Order by Minister for Regional Australia, Regional
Development and Local Government and Minister for the Arts - Simon
Crean.
Thanking Crean, Tendulkar said Australians are fierce competitors but
also shower you with praises when you play well. "They are fierce
competitors and play well and hard. But they also shower you with
praises when you come out and play well. In fact my favourite ground
away from home is Sydney," he said adding that his most memorable trip
to Australia was when he met Sir Donald Bradman. "When I asked him why
a strike rate of 99.9, he replied: Son, it is not bad for a
90-year-old."
