&ldquo;He&rsquo;ll be hungry, he&rsquo;ll be really hungry. If Australia allow him to score in the first two Test matches this will be a very big series for Tendulkar,&rdquo; Shastri was quoted as saying in the Sydney Morning Herald. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/feb/sachin.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 366px;" /> Sachin Tendulkar and Ravi Shastri &ldquo;He will come out a little nervous, there will be nerves in the first couple of innings but if he gets a 50, 60 or 70 in one of the first two innings then this could be a big series for him.&rdquo; Tendulkar has tormented Australia in every Test series he has played against them at home save the 2004-05 series (he played two of the four Tests) which coincided with his tennis elbow injury. The report said that Shastri spoke to Tendulkar after India&rsquo;s series defeat to England last year and &ldquo;detected a renewed sense of determination&rdquo; from the master batsman who will turn 40 this April. &ldquo;England bowled extremely well but I get the feeling the break he&rsquo;s had for a couple of months, he&rsquo;s gone back to the kind of preparation he&rsquo;s used to. I want him to be positive and not get into a defending kind of mode. He has to play his natural game, if he does that we&rsquo;re in for some entertainment,&rdquo; Shastri said.u00a0
