Srinagar, Feb 22: Legendary cricketer and star batsman of the Indian cricket team, Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar, was seen playing street cricket in the border town of Uri in North Kashmir on Thursday.
Former Indian legend Sachin Tendulkar, known for his visits to different parts of the country, travelled to Kashmir for the first time and was seen indulging in gully cricket. In a clip posted on his Twitter account, Tendulkar was batting against local youngsters in the beautiful road in Uri.
“Cricket and Kashmir: A match made in heaven,” posted Tendulkar on Twitter, along with a short video in which he can be seen facing nine balls, watched in awe by the locals.
Tendulkar is touring Kashmir along with his wife, Anjali Tendulkar, and daughter, Sara Tendulkar, who hung out with the cricketer at Kunzar village, discovering local arts and crafts at Dhobiwan. Tendulkar also visited MJ Sports Bat Factory in Chersoo village, reminiscing about receiving his first Kashmir willow bat from his sister, Savita Tendulkar.
In the latest video uploaded by Tendulkar on his Instagram and Twitter handles, Sachin stopped his car on the road and requested the locals, engaged in a game of cricket, “Hum khelein?” (Can I play?). He requested, and the locals, obviously obliged. Facing a tennis ball, Tendulkar went back to his initial days as he brought out some shots but none more astonishing than the one in which he played off the final ball.
As Tendulkar took strike off the last ball, he told the bowler, “Out karna padega” (You have to get me out). However, much like numerous legendary bowlers whom the Master Blaster encountered throughout his career, he couldn’t dismiss Tendulkar either. Tendulkar, holding the bat upside down, unleashed a cover drive with a cracking sound as the onlookers applauded, and Sachin’s wife Anjali watched with a beaming smile on her face.
