Master Blaster Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar, who along with his family is on a visit to Kashmir, was on Thursday spotted in Srinagar, enjoying a Shikara ride at the world-famous Dal Lake.
Tendulkar, accompanied by his family, according to the news agency arrived in Kashmir last week. After being spotted playing gully cricket with the locals in the surroundings of Gulmarg area, he was seen in Srinagar today for a brief time.
Sachin was seen enjoying the Shikara ride along with his wife and daughter in Srinagar at Dal Lake, where he praised Kashmir, saying he was enjoying the visit.
Notably, on arrival in the valley, Tendulkar first visited a bat factory in south Kashmir, and then later reminisced about his first Kashmir willow, a gift from his sister, highlighting the deep personal connections that cricket fosters within him.
“The first bat given to me was by my sister and it was a Kashmir willow bat. Ab main yahan hoon to Kashmir willow ko to milna banta hai! P.S.: An interesting fact; some of my favourite bats had only about 5-6 grains. How many grains do your bats have?" Sachin wrote on X.
On his arrival, Tendulkar explored the beauty of Pahalgam, revelling in the scenic vistas of Betab Valley, following which he moved to world famous ski-destination Gulmarg where he expressed his excitement and extended his best wishes to the organizers and athletes of Khelo India Winter Games.
