Indian batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar feels that the current Indian team has more match winners than ever and it has performed consistently.
 
"I think we definitely have more match winners. There were good players earlier as well. But I think in this lot we have got match winners and more big hitters as such and you know the guys have delivered at the crunch moment," Tendulkar told reporters here last night after India beat Sri Lanka by 46 runs to win an ODI tri-series. 
"It could be with bat or bowl. But they have been delivering pretty consistently and you know they are all talented guys, extremely talented guys. You need match winners to win consistently. That is what this team is about," he added. 
"There might be a couple of hiccups here and there but on the whole if you see the guys have really done well." 
Sachin Tendulkar also described the current team led by Mahendra Singh Dhoni as one of the best. 
"I have been fortunate to be part of Indian cricket team from 1989. There have been so many great names. I would not want to run anyone down by making comparisons about teams," he said. 
"I would like to respect the fact that I was fortunate to be part of various generations. This is definitely one of the top teams I have been part of," Tendulkar added. 
"We have always tried to win but we have been able to produce results in the last couple of years or so. We have been able to perform pretty consistently. There are going to be upsets in between but if you look at the larger picture, we have had better days."LATEST SCORES
