If you are a cricket buff who grew up in the 1990s, then you must be familiar with chants of “Sachin, Sachin” ringing in the air whenever legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar came out to bat. With thousands of people rooting for him, it would give you goosebumps if you were watching the match in a stadium. The Master Blaster reminded fans of the bygone era as he is currently playing in the Road Safety World Series. Captaining the India Legends team, Tendulkar turned back the clock and treated his fans to his exquisite shots in a match against New Zealand Legends at Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore. India Legends had scored 49 runs for the loss of one wicket in 5.5 overs before rain played spoilsport and the match got abandoned. Tendulkar and Suresh Raina were at the crease batting on 19 and 9, respectively, at the time. A video posted on Twitter shows how the whole stadium erupted in cheers as Sachin Tendulkar came out to bat.

These tournaments should be held a lot often and we should see these guys playing. Golden era of cricket relieved.
