Ernie Els is a Tendulkar fan

New Delhi: Sachin Tendulkar’s fan following transcends far beyond the boundary of cricket and Ernie Els confessed he too was an admirer of the Indian icon. Cricket was among the games Els excelled in during his childhood before golf lured him away.

“He is an un-believable player, one of greatest players ever. I love watching him. Your (one-day) captain Dhoni is also a good striker of the ball. I also like Sourav Ganguly, Virender Sehwag and Rahul Dravid.

“You have a good (Test) captain in Anil Kumble as well,” he said.

Asked about his memory of playing cricket in his childhood, Els said, “I was an all-rounder and bowled medium pace.” — PTI
