Wishes pour on Tendulkar’s birthday
Legendary India cricketer Sachin Tendulkar turned 48 on Saturday and wishes came in from the cricket community and beyond. Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, Ajinkya Rahane, and Venkatesh Prasad among other cricketers posted their wishes on social media. All Indian Premier League teams, including Mumbai Indians, the team Tendulkar played for, wished the legendary cricketer. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) posted highlights of Tendulkar's ODI double-hundred - the first by any batsman in the format - to congratulate the cricketer. “Great to see you back and fully recovered! Lots of love and best wishes" wrote Yuvraj Singh. Tendulkar had tested positive for Covid-19 last month.
“Many many happy returns of the day @sachin_rt to an absolute legend of cricket. Your passion for cricket made us love the game and gave us a lifetime of memories! Wishing you a blessed & a healthy life always,” Raina wrote in a tweet. “Very few individuals are capable of evoking collective emotions of millions of people the way you do, Sachin Paaji! Here's wishing you a very happy birthday and an even happier year ahead!” wrote Rahane. Sachin's national teammate from the 1990s and early 2000s Venkatesh Prasad posted a tweet, describing him as the greatest.
