Tendulkar celebrates birthday

Making a rare public appearance, Sachin Tendulkar cut a cake in the presence of mediapersons to mark his 33rd birthday, which he celebrated quietly with family members at home.

Tendulkar, who has scored 74 international centuries, also said he had been receiving a lot of birthday wishes from his well-wishers.

``I have been getting a lot of SMS and phone calls from teammates and friends. It is hard to keep replying but in the next couple of days I should be able to do that.''
