New wonder boy of cricket wants to meet Tendulkar

Mumbai, Nov 6:  Sarfaraz Khan first surpassed Sachin Tendulkar's record to hit the headlines and the 12-year-old cricket prodigy now wants to meet the batting great in person to achieve his long-cherished dream.

Sarfaraz, who slammed 439 in the Harris Shield to better Tendulkar's inter-school unbeaten knock of 346, showed maturity beyond his years as he dismissed any comparison made between him and Tendulkar.

"Sachin is my idol and I consider him as my 'Guru'.

Please don't compare me with him," the Rizvi Springfield student told PTI today.

"Even if I achieve one per cent of what he has achieved, I would be blessed. Meeting him is my dream, please write this," he insisted.

Ill at ease with his overnight celebrity status, Sarfaraz said he had in fact fainted after giving series of interviews on Wednesday.

"It feels great to be chased by the media but they tend to go a bit overboard," he complained.

"I fainted after completing my media assignments at 11 pm last night. More than the time I spent at the crease it has been the media interactions that has tired me out," said the cricket talent who scored a mammoth 439 in 421
