Sachin Tendulkar, the eternal wonder of world cricket, turns 50 today. A journey through the life of a legendary star…
Baby Sachin’s Antics
Baby Sachin was a big mischief at home. Always climbs trees and falls and gets hurt. He would take a small cricket bat and hit the stones and balls and break the windows. Brother Ajith felt that it would be better to divert the energy to something that the party is interested in to stop this mischief. That’s how Ramakant Achrekar, a cricket coach, comes across. When Sachin takes batting practice, Achrekar places a coin on top of the stumps. This is for the bowlers who dismiss Sachin. If he does not get out, this coin will be for Sachin Tendulkar.
He hesitated to beat his brother
Sachin Tendulkar’s brother Ajith is the most influential person in his cricketing career. Sachin describes Ajith, who is 8 years older than Sachin, as a friend and a guide. Sachin also picked up the bat after seeing Ajith playing cricket. Sachin once played against Ajith too. In a single-wicket tournament, Ajith and Sachin faced each other in the semi-finals. Sachin played with the hesitation to beat his brother. Sachin has revealed that Ajith, who understood that, gave him a reprimanding look and then had to win the game.
Eight years of waiting for champagne!
Sachin is a right-handed batsman and bowler in cricket and writes with his left hand. Before going out to bat, the pad on the left foot is tied first. Sachin Tendulkar, who scored his maiden Test century against England at Old Trafford in 1990, could not taste the champagne he received as the man of the match award. Because under 18s were not allowed to taste alcohol in the UK. After eight years, Sachin opened the champagne on his daughter’s first birthday. At the age of 17, he scored a century in Tests, but Sachin’s century in ODIs was delayed again. Sachin scored his first century in the 79th ODI match against Australia in 1994. It was at the age of 21.
He wanted to become a pace bowler
Sachin Tendulkar is a brilliant bowler as well. Sachin Tendulkar has taken 5 wickets in ODI matches 5 times. Remember that Australia’s Shane Warne, West Indies’ Courtney Walsh, Malcolm Marshall and Pakistan’s Imran Khan, who were bowling legends, have not been able to get 5 wickets 5 times! In the last over, Sachin’s bowling was able to stop the opposing team 2 times from the winning target of 6 runs. This was against South Africa in the 1993 Hero Cup and against Australia in the 1996 Titan Cup. Sachin, who wanted to be a pace bowler in his youth, became a world-renowned batsman. However, son Arjun is now one of the pace bowlers of IPL team Mumbai Indians.
Played for Pakistan too!
Sachin Tendulkar has made his debut in international cricket for India and earlier for Pakistan. It was in 1987 at Mumbai’s Brabourne Stadium. Sachin went to field for the Pak team as a substitute in the training match. Sachin made his international debut against Pakistan after 2 years; In the Test held at Karachi on 15 November 1989. Sachin Tendulkar was the ballboy in the 1987 India-Zimbabwe World Cup match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. 24 years later, in 2011, when India won the World Cup at the same ground, Sachin was also in that team.
Sachin’s father
Sachin Tendulkar got married on May 24, 1995 at the age of 23. Pediatrician Dr. Sachin met and met Anjali Mehta for the first time 5 years ago. After marriage, Anjali decided to stop practicing and put her life on hold for Sachin. Both have 2 children; Sara and Arjun. Daughter Sara followed her mother’s path and got active in modeling after getting her medical degree. Son Arjun came to cricket through his father’s path.
Chef Sachin is a tennis lover
After cricket, Sachin’s favorite thing is cooking. Sachin is fond of cooking dishes of various tastes. A favorite dish is large shrimp. Sachin cooks himself and serves it to his family and friends. He also shares such videos on social media. Tennis is Sachin’s favorite sport like cricket. Sachin Tendulkar was an ardent fan of tennis legend John McEnroe in his youth.
