The current Indian team has a “great balance”, said legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar in Mumbai at a panel discussion after the launch of journalist Rajdeep Sardesai’s book ‘Democracy’s XI – The Great Indian Cricket Story’ here on Monday evening. Tendulkar said that during his hey days in the mid-1990s, India started coming close to winning overseas “but were not winning”. Kohli has not changed much, the people around him have changed, their attitude has changed,” Tendulkar said. Having started to watch cricket from the 1950s, Sachin is the closest to batting perfection. When my life is in danger and I want someone to score a hundred, Sachin will be the one,” Gavaskar said.
