"I never got angry. I played with him in a league in 2010. He told me to get Pietersen out by doing "dusra". Then I got Petersan out by doing dusra. He was very happy. Then when I took 4 wickets in 4 overs, Sachin told me that now the match has 6 wickets left, you should not finish it too early. He has always respected us. He is a very good man," the former leg-spinner added.
