Cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar is celebrating his 50th birthday today (April 24). Fondly known as the Master Blaster, Tendulkar is widely regarded as the greatest batter produced by India.
In a career spanning 24 years, Sachin played 200 Tests and 463 ODIs for India, scoring the world record number of runs (15921 in Tests and 18426 in ODIs) and centuries (51 in Tests and 49 in ODIs).
Tendulkar also holds the record for being the first man to score 10,000 runs in ODI cricket, first batter to score 100 international centuries, first male cricketer to score a double ton in ODIs, most matches played in both formats and other numerous milestones.
No wonder, Sachin Tendulkar is one of the most recognised faces around the globe. As he celebrates his landmark birthday, wishes are pouring in for the batting maestro from all quarters.
WWE legend Triple H also extended his heartfelt wishes to Tendulkar as the latter completed half-century off the field.
Taking to Instagram, Sony Sports Network shared a video, in which Triple H said: “Sachin, the Master Blaster, my friend! On behalf of all the WWE Universe, Happy 50th birthday."
“Another incredible milestone. You have inspired generations across the world on and off the cricket field," he added.
Triple H further said how Sachin Tendulkar’s exploits encouraged followers of sport to believe in the impossible.
“Encouraging fans to believe in the impossible, which is everything we believe and stand for at WWE," he said.
“We are wishing you all the best. Happy Birthday, Sachin!" he concluded.
