But, Kohli’s amazing batting grabbed Sachin’s attention and he praised Kohli by saying “I would say, just continue, he’s doing a fantastic job so just continue. Don’t worry about what’s happening around you, keep your focus on what you want to achieve, and let your heart guide the way. “Along the way, there will be plenty of things said and done, but eventually, if you are passionate about what you want in life, then the results will invariably follow”, he added.
Tendulkar also said that Kohli should be immensely proud of his achievements. He also asked Kohli to stay hungry for runs. “I can tell you from my own experience, however many runs you score they are never enough,” Tendulkar said.

“You want more runs, and that is the case with Virat. However many runs he scores, it will never be enough for him. The downfall starts when you are satisfied. It’s nice to be happy, but never be satisfied when you are a batsman. Bowlers can only get ten wickets, but batters can go on and go, so don’t be satisfied, just be happy”, he said.
