Rahul Dravid says his long-time India teammate Sachin Tendulkar was comfortable with the decision on his retirement and must have known "he can't carry on" longer after a 24-year international career.
“You knew that it was going to happen sooner rather than later. There were indications that he would finish it but he would finish that with the West Indies tour, I did not get that inkling,” said Dravid.
“It wouldn’t have been easy for him. He must have known from his heart. He had gone by what his heart told him. You take a lot of advice from family, people who are close to you,” Dravid was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.
