Beyond the cricket pitch, Sachin Tendulkar’s legend extends. He now ranks among the best cricketers of all time thanks to his on-field accomplishments. There hasn’t been a single hitter who has even come close to matching his record of most runs in ODIs (18426) and Tests (15921), despite the fact that he retired 10 years ago in 2013.
Additionally, he holds the cricketing world record for the most international hundreds. He is also well-liked on a global scale. Few people are aware that Tendulkar also serves as an honorary group captain for the Indian Air Force.
He recently visited Air Chief Marshal VR Chaudhari, the chief of the air staff, in New Delhi. Tendulkar in IAF garb has been featured in several viral videos.
The ‘Master Blaster’ faced several great bowlers over his extensive cricket career, including Glenn McGrath, Brett Lee, Akhtar, and many more. The Indian legend continued to score significant blows.
“The reason I call Sachin the greatest of all time is because he had to first face Warne, McGrath, Wasim Akram, West Indies and South Africa pace batteries. Then after 10 years he had to face fastest bowlers like Brett Lee, me, Dale Steyn and the other guys. I just thought this guy is crazy, this is not normal, nothing less than extraordinary,” Akhtar spoke to RevSportz.
