New Delhi, Aug 6 - India's batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar has said he is aiming to score 15,000 Test runs and win the 2011 World Cup that will be hosted in the sub-continent.
'I have given it (retirement) no thought at all. I am good at cricket, so I will play a while longer. I still love the game as much as ever, it is my job but it remains my passion too. This is fun. Cricket remains in my heart,' Tendulkar was quoted as saying in The Wisden Cricketer.
Despite being the holder of most Test and ODI runs and centuries, Tendulkar said that there is more to come
'I am not pleased yet with what I have done. Sunil Gavaskar has told me that I have to get to 15,000 runs; he said he would be angry with me, he would come and catch me if I didn't. I admire him so much and to score that many would be a terrific achievement but that is not the only aim,' he said.
Tendulkar also said that he can only rest after guiding India to the 2011 World Cup title on home soil
He believes that Test cricket will remain the supreme form of the game, despite the run away success of the Twenty20.
