"I never played with a runner in my entire life, even in schools, because only I know where the ball is going and how hard, when I hit the ball, something my runner will never know about." I refers to which cricket legend?

Sachin Tendulkar was famously known for his reluctance to have a runner when injured because he believed only he knew exactly where he was hitting the ball and how hard. This quote reflects his philosophy about running between wickets being an instinctive part of batting that a substitute runner couldn't replicate. Mark Waugh, Don Bradman, and Sunil Gavaskar are not associated with this quote about runners.
