Putting to rest all speculation about his joining politics following his nomination to the Rajya Sabha, Sachin Tendulkar on Tuesday said he was not quitting cricket to join politics and will always remain a sportsman.
Speaking for the first time after he was nominated for a Rajya Sabha seat, Tendulkar acknowledged that the honour bestowed on him was for his contribution to the field of cricket. "I am not a politician. I am a sportsman and will always remain one. I am not going to enter politics giving up cricket, which is my life. I will continue to play cricket," he said during a felicitation function by a private firm here.
