Sachin Tendulkar turned 45 on Tuesday and fans were not in any mood for this being taken lightly.

Sachin Tendulkar termed the retiring Mitchell Johnson as an aggressive bowler and that he has always been a special bowler for Australia. Tendulkar and Johnson were team-mates for Mumbai Indians during the 2012-13 Indian Premier League.

Selectors might be forced to axe Ricky Ponting or Mike Hussey from the Australian team for the upcoming four Tests against India after their dismal show in the just-concluded series with New Zealand, feels former captain Allan Border.

Former Australian captain Mark Taylor has said that all-rounder Shane Watson should remain a Test opener to manage his workload in all forms of the game.
