“I am not thinking about that. I feel it (100 hundreds) is just a number. I am thinking about playing good cricket. I am enjoying my game,” Tendulkar was quoted in MiD DAY.
Fans hope he will attain the feat on his home ground at the Wankhede stadium when the Test starts on Tuesday, but Tendulkar said he could not understand what the fuss was all about.
“I know everyone’s talking and thinking about my 100th century. I want to be relaxed and let cricket decide its own course. I am not rushing into anything; just concentrating my normal game.” as he cannot understand the hype surrounding his 100th international century.
“I’m under no pressure, but I want to say something: When I got my 90th international century, nobody said anything. Even before my 99th century, nobody said anything, so why now? I don’t understand,” he emphasised.
He came close to the milestone thrice when he scored 85 in the World Cup semi-final against Pakistan, 91 in the Oval Test against England in August and 76 in the first Test of the ongoing series against the West Indies in New Delhi.
Tendulkar has scored 15 086 runs in 183 Tests with 51 centuries, and 18 111 runs in 453 one-day internationals with 48 hundreds.
