"I thank the team for putting up a fabulous performance and playing consistent cricket," added the maestro, who had represented the country in five previous World Cups.
Tendulkar, the highest run-getter in both Tests (14692) and ODIs (18111) and also the only batsman to have notched up a double century in the 50-over game, has said before the tournament that it was his dream to be part of a World Cup-winning Indian squad.
The cricket icon, who did a lap of honour on the shoulder of his teammates said there was tears in his eyes once Dhoni hit the winning shot off Nuwan Kulasekara -- a six over long on. "Yes, they were happy tears. So I don't mind. We have stuck together through ups and down," stated the legend, who will be celebrating his 38th birthday on April 24
