Sachin Tendulkar advises Virat Kohli to stay hungry

New Delhi : Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar has an advise for Indian skipper to keep calm, foucused and stay hungry for more.

After a brilliant display of batting in the first Test match, Virat Kohli attained No 1 spot in ICC Test batting rankings. But, this was not enough for his team to score a win in the game.

His No 1 spot is the first time that any Indian batsman had achieved the feat since Tendulkar himself in 2011.

"I would say, just continue, he's doing a fantastic job so just continue," Tendulkar told ESPNcricinfo. "Don't worry about what's happening around you, keep your focus on what you want to achieve, and let your heart guide the way.

"Along the way there will be plenty of things said and done, but eventually, if you are passionate about what you want in life, then the results will invariably follow."

"I can tell you from my own experience, however many runs you score they are never enough," Tendulkar said. "You want more runs, and that is the case with Virat. However many runs he scores, it will never be enough for him.

"The downfall starts when you are satisfied. It's nice to be happy, but never be satisfied when you are a batsman. Bowlers can only get ten wickets, but batters can go on and go, so don't be satisfied, just be happy."
