KINGSTON: Sachin Tendulkar's long list of admirers keeps on growing with world and Olympic champion sprinter Usain Bolt on Saturday saying he was one of the "greatest cricketers" and he dreams of watching the Indian champion play on the cricket field.
Bolt, one of the most celebrated modern sporting icons, also said that he would one day run in India, despite the fact that had pulled out of the Commonwealth Games held here last year.
"For me he (Tendulkar) is one of the greatest cricketers I have seen. He has done extremely well and he is a very aggressive cricketer. I look forward to the day when I can see him play live," said the Jamaican 100m world record holder (9.58secs) about Tendulkar who opted out of India's ongoing West Indies tour to take rest.
"It would be great had he (Tendulkar) played in Jamaica (in India's first Test against West Indies). I want to see him play, that is my dream," said the triple Olympic and World Championships gold medallist.
Bolt also said that he loved the aggressive attitude of Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni during the first Test in Kingston.
