On the day of the match I was in severe pain all over my body. I decided to spend a lot of time with the physio and play. I had told him all regarding my pain. I decided to play following that, ”Tendulkar said.
“When I got to batting I didn’t even think regarding the pain for a second. I was able to play very free. I never thought regarding a double century. “After hitting a century, I tried to play without pressure,” said Tendulkar
