Sachin Tendulkar says Sehwag comes closest to his style of batting | Sachin aims for 15K runs in Test

Excerpts of an interview given by Sachin Tendulkar to Wisden Cricketer reveals that Sachin has a desire to reach 15,000 runs in Test cricket as Sunil Gavaskar requested him to do so and also would be unhappy if he didn’t manage to get the runs to reach that landmark. Excerpts also reveals that he is not very pleased with the comments by John Buchanan about Sachin unable to handle the short deliveries, and justified himself by saying that John need not be correct always, and he needs to correct himself in saying so as if he (Sachin) has problems facing the short pitch deliveries than why has he been scoring heavily against the top bowlers in world cricket.

He also mentioned in his interview that Sehwag is the closest one who has reached to his caliber in terms of batting style.
