Sachin Tendulkar is widely regarded as one of the greatest batters to have played the game. Many cricketers idolize him and he has shown the way to various players how to approach their game.
In his illustrious career spanning 24 years, the prolific Indian batter scored 34,357 across formats to go with 100 centuries. He accomplished almost every record to his name, some of which are still unbroken. He was mostly known for his glorious straight drive and it’s fair to say that no one has played that shot better than him.
On Tuesday (29th August), India celebrated National Sports Day and many cricketers, former players and fans graced the occasion by posting pictures and videos, playing different games.
