On this week’s ICC Cricket World audio show India batsman Sachin Tendulkar looks ahead to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 which will be staged in India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka from 19 February to 2 April.
“We’ve been performing well as a side and I think it’s important that the India team carry its momentum into the tournament next year. I think our pre-tournament preparation will be key and at the same time pre-tournament recovery is also important so that we’re raring to go once the event has started.
“I think it’s difficult to say which team will do well in the tournament next year as it’s about who performs well on that given day. Whoever does well will carry the confidence with them through the tournament once they’ve won a few matches. It (World Cup) makes it a totally different ball game,” says the 37-year-old who has played in five ICC Cricket World Cups.
