'We need to kidnap Sachin Tendulkar,' says former British Prime Minister David Cameron

Former British prime minister David Cameron on Saturday spoke in a lighter vein on the England cricket team's performance in the ongoing Test series with India, where they have lost two matches, saying the way it's going, his country needs to "kidnap" Sachin Tendulkar for training.

"I see the Little Master going to be here later on. Given the way the Test series (between the two countries) is going, we need to kidnap him (Tendulkar) for training," he said, referring to the series where India have won the two of the first three matches.

Speaking at HT Leadership Summit, Cameron also talked about US President Barack Obama's sporting skills, he said one of the things not to do is to play golf with him.

He also praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his ability to connect with audience. Another thing not to do is to appear on a platform in front of 60,000 people, from where Prime Minister Narendra Modi is addressing a crowd "because you are never going to compete with his rhetoric and his ability to connect with the audience".
