One of the best batsmen in cricket history, Sachin Tendulkar turns 47 today and his fans and followers are ushering him with love and respect from across the world.
The man in his 24 years of cricket career has held several records and once was one of the youngest Indian cricketers to score half-century. Although, his record was recently broken by Shafali Verma, after thirty years.
On the birthday of Master Blaster who made India proud in every stadium and field with his explosive batting skills, BCCI shared a video of his glorious knocks against England in 2008, along with sending warm wishes to Sachin.
As the Master Blaster @sachin_rt turns 47, we relive one of his glorious knocks against England in 2008.
He dedicated this ton – 41st in Test cricket, to the victims of 26/11 Mumbai terror attack.
Here's wishing the legend a very happy birthday
