Those who consider Twenty20 a young man's game don't know much about cricket, says Indian batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar, insisting that age has got nothing to do with a player's performance in the shortest format of the sport.
"I don't know who says that it's a young man's game. Clearly, he doesn't know much about cricket. It's a cricketers' game so it really doesn't matter whether you are young or old. It is a cricketer's match," Tendulkar told the Indian Premier League's official website.
The 36-year-old skipper of the Mumbai Indians team has been in sparkling form in the IPL having scored 163 runs at an average of over 80 in three matches. He is currently fourth on the leading IPL-2 scorers' list.
Tendulkar said opening the Mmumbai innings with Sri Lanka's ageless swashbuckler Sanath Jayasuriya has been a fantastic experience so far.
