To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised to see him go past Tendulkar, with all the tests he plays. Not playing ODI's is another reason he could play longer than Sachin.

Not sure he would play longer than tendulkar.
Doubt Cook would play for 25 years.
Cook might play more test but not the same as playing the same amount of time.
if he goes the current scoring rate he would beat tendulkar at the age of 37.
For cook to play longer than Tendulkar Cook would have to retire at 2030.
No way is that happening.
