I want Tendulkar's wicket: Pakistan's Aamer

Pakistan's teenage pace sensation Muhammad Aamer is targetting the prized wicket of Sachin Tendulkar in tomorrow's hugely anticipated Champions Trophy clash with India in Centurion, South Africa.

"He is a great batsman and I would love to get his wicket. I have worked out a plan on how to bowl to him but it will all depend on what sort of pitch they have at the Centurion," Aamer said from Johannesburg.

The 18-year old left arm pacer said he has always dreamed of playing for Pakistan against India. "I have grown up watching some memorable matches between the two teams.

"I have studied videos of how Wasim (Akram) bhai used to bowl to Tendulkar," Aamer said. "I just want to get Tendulkar's wicket early. It would not only be a big boost for me but also for the entire team as he is a prized wicket," he added. Aamer who took 3 for 24 in the opening match against the West Indies said all the players were geared up for the big match.

"In the end I think it will not be about individual performances but how we play collectively. The spirits in the dressing room are high and we are looking forward to a good contest," he said.
