Sachin Tendulkar should have retired after the World Cup victory at home last year, says Imran Khan.
"The best time for him to have gone was when India won the World Cup. He is such a great player and there is still no replacement for him really, but he has to time it right," Khan said.
Sachin currently holds the record for the most runs and centuries in Tests and one-dayers, and is chasing a 100th international century.
"Records should be apart of a win because they are eventually statistics. The greatest cricketer I played against was Viv Richards, but I don't remember his records. He just loved to take on challenges," Khan said
Imran had retired after he led Pakistan to a 1992 world Cup victory.
