Centurion: Despite standing on the threshhold of history, champion batsman Sachin Tendulkar seemed unfazed by the media attention and the anticipation around his 50th Test century.
“I believe it is destiny. When it is destined to happen it will happen. I am not thinking too much about it. My focus is on preparation,” Tendulkar said.
Should he score a ton in the three-match Test series against South Africa beginning tomorrow, the iconic batsman from India would become the first man in the history of Test cricket to get to the coveted landmark.
Tendulkar, however, preferred to focus on the match and not personal landmarks.
“For me one thing is very important and that is to get acclimatized to local weather conditions,” Tendulkar said as world number one India prepare to face second best South Africa.
