Steve has high praise for Dravid, Srinath New Delhi, July 23 Steve Waugh, who will appear in CNN’s Talk Asia programme, to be telecast on July 27 (Saturday) at 7 pm, which will be repeated on July 28 and 29 at 4 pm and 8 pm respectively, also had high praise for Indian fast bowler Javagal Srinath, who, he feels, “has been an excellent quick bowler for India. He’s the guy that I sort of admire on the field, but they’ve got many players that could be role models for kids, that’s obviously important”. About Sachin Tendulkar, Steve Waugh has observed that “Everyone loves Tendulkar in India. He’s obviously a great player. He’s probably the best player in the world.” Steve Waugh said that on meeting Mother Teresa, “I was sort of a bit dumbstruck......but she did have that calming influence so you could just feel there was something special about her. She had no real material possession, but a person who dedicated a whole life to helping others, pretty amazing person. There’s not many people like her”. He was also all praise for the Eden Garden cricket stadium in Kolkatta. “Calcutta’s a great stadium, it’s one of the best places to play cricket”, he noted. |
