Sachin Tendulkar is not just a cricketer but the God of Cricket for many of his fans and Virat Kohli is one of them. In fact, Virat often said that he became a cricketer just because of Sachin and he had always dreamt of batting like Master Blaster.
Sachin is a legend who is on par with Sir Don Bradman, Sir Vivian Richards and other great players. He has made many records which may never be broken keeping in mind the hectic schedule of today’s cricketers.
On 24th April, 2017, Little Master Sachin Tendulkar turned 44 and birthday wishes poured in from all over the globe. The Indian captain and Sachin’s fan, Virat Kohli also sent him a beautiful message which read, “Happy B’day Paaji. May God bless you with more happiness and peace in life. My cricket hero always.”

But the real icing of the cake was the video which Kohli uploaded on Twitter. Kohli was in an event in the Bengaluru where he was interacting with cricket fans. Undoubtedly, they all must be fans of Sachin as there would hardly be any Indian cricket fan who doesn’t adore Sachin. Virat made them sing Happy Birthday Sachin Tendulkar and shared the video on Twitter with caption, “Wish you a very Happy Birthday @sachin_rt from a few fans in Bengaluru.”

Isn’t it a beautiful gift?
Well, Virat and the Indian cricket team showed respect to a Pakistani player also when he got retired. We are talking about Shahid Afridi! When Afridi announced his retirement, Virat and Indian cricket team gifted him Virat’s t-shirt signed by all Indian players. On the t-shirt, it was written, “always a pleasure playing against you”.
India and Pakistan’s cricket rivalry is famous in the whole world and each match between these two neighbors is damn exciting.
There is no doubt that Sachin would have loved the special gift that he has got from this special fan. What do you say?
