Sachin: I’ll miss Dravid in the dressing room

Sachin Tendulkar on Thursday paid rich tributesto Rahul Dravid, who is
expected to announce his retirement from international cricket on
Friday, saying there can be"no other" cricketer like him.
"There was and is only one Rahul Dravid. There can be no other. I will
miss Rahul in the dressing room and out in the middle," Tendulkar
said.
Dravid has called a press conference in Bangalore onFriday, prompting
speculation that he may announce his retirement from international
cricket where he has been a star for over 15 years.
Test cricket's two most prolific batsmen, Tendulkarand Dravid together
fashioned many of India's famous wins with crucial partnerships over
the pastone-and-a-half decade.
Talking about those partnerships, Tendulkar said, "I have shared the
best moments with him. Our many century partnerships are testimony to
the hours we spent together in the middle.
"For someone who has played 164 matches and over 13000 runs, no
tribute can be enough."
