Legendary batsman <keyword id="6354267" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="sachin-tendulkar">Sachin Tendulkar</keyword> has won the greatest Laureus Sporting Moment Award in the last 20 years. The moment, titled 'Carried on the shoulders of a nation', describing the moment when Team India members carried Tendulkar on their shoulders across the <keyword id="3033" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Wankhede-Stadium">Wankhede Stadium</keyword> in Mumbai following their 2011 World Cup victory, received the maximum number of votes by the fans. In his sixth appearance in the showpiece event, Tendulkar and the Indian team finally tasted success as they defeated Sri Lanka by six wickets in the final. It was watched live by an estimated 135 million fans across India on April 2, 2011. Tendulkar, widely regarded as one of the greatest batsmen in the history of cricket, was carried on the shoulders by the Indian team players. He had made a lap of honour in front of raucous cheers, shedding tears of joy after achieving such a momentous victory in his home city. "It's incredible. The feeling of winning the world cup was beyond what words can express. How many times you get an event happening where there are no mixed opinions. Very rarely the entire country celebrates," the 46-year-old said after receiving the trophy from former Australian skipper <keyword id="13561" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Steve-Waugh">Steve Waugh</keyword> handed the trophy to Tendulkar at a glittering ceremony on Monday evening. "And this is a reminder of how powerful sport is and what magic it does to our lives. Even now when I watch that (moment), it has stayed with me." Tennis legend Brois Becker, who had announced the winner, then asked Tendulkar to share the emotions he felt at that time and the Master Blaster put in perspective how important it was for him to hold that trophy. "My journey started in 1983 when I was 10 years old. India had won the World Cup. I did not understand the significance and just because everybody was celebrating, I also joined the party," said Tendulkar. "But somewhere I knew something special has happened to the country and I wanted to experience it one day and that's how my journey began. "It was the proudest moment of my life, holding that trophy which I chased for 22 years but I never lost hope. I was merely lifting that trophy on behalf of my countrymen," he added. Tendulkar, who is regarded as one of the greatest batsmen to have played the game of cricket, also shared the impact South <keyword id="12925" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Africa">Africa</keyword>'s first black President and freedom advocate <keyword id="45802" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nelson-Mandela">Nelson Mandela</keyword> had on him. Tendulkar revealed he met him when he was just 19-years-old. "His hardship did not affect his leadership. Out of many messages he left, the most important I felt was that sport has got the power to unite everyone. "Today, sitting in this room with so many athletes, some of them did not have everything but they made the best of everything they had. I thank them for inspiring youngsters to pick a sport of their choice and chase their dreams. This trophy belongs to all of us, it's not just about me," said Tendulkar. Apart from Tendulkar, former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff was the other cricketer who featured in the list of greatest Laureus Sporting Moment.

Sachin Tendulkar imparts cricket training to children to celebrate his 43rd birthday

<keyword id="99276" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="arjun-tendulkar" source="Orion">Arjun Tendulkar</keyword>, son of cricket legend <keyword id="6354267" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sachin-tendulkar" source="Orion">Sachin Tendulkar</keyword>, has not been included in the <keyword id="6358070" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="mumbai" source="Orion">Mumbai</keyword> <keyword id="3028" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="ranji-trophy" source="Orion">Ranji Trophy</keyword> squad for the knockout matches to be held in June. Prithvi Shaw will lead the squad that also includes fellow opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhaval Kulkarni, and Tushar Deshpande for the match against Uttarakhand in Bengaluru. In February this year, Arjun Tendulkar and India batter Ajinkya Rahane were named in the Mumbai Ranji Trophy squad. The left-handed allrounder, who has represented Mumbai in T20 matches, is yet to make his first-class debut. Rahane is still recovering from a shoulder injury. Arjun Tendulkar was picked by the Mumbai Indians in the IPL mega auction for Rs 30 lakh but did not get to play a single match even after MI were eliminated from title contention early after losing eight consecutive matches. The team management's decision not to give him an IPL debut had generated much heat on social media with fans trolling Mumbai Indians skipper <keyword id="13937" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="rohit-sharma" source="Orion">Rohit Sharma</keyword> for their decision. Meanwhile, the Mumbai Ranji squad for the knockout matches includes two brothers -- middle-order batsman <keyword id="66876" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="sarfaraz-khan" source="Orion">Sarfaraz Khan</keyword>, who played for Delhi Capitals in the IPL, and his 18-year-old brother Musheer. An opening batsman and left-arm spinner, Musheer has done well for Mumbai in the Cooch Behar Trophy, thus getting a call-up for the senior squad. The Senior Selection Committee of Mumbai Cricket Association led by Salil Ankola and comprising Gulam Parkar, Sunil More, Prasad Desai, and Anand Yalvigi also picked Arman Jaffer, nephew of former India opener <keyword id="7862" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="wasim-jaffer" source="Orion">Wasim Jaffer</keyword>, for the knockout matches. The Mumbai squad: Prithvi Shaw (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Bhupen Lalwani, Arman Jaffer, Sarfaraz Khan, Suved Parkar, Aakarshit Gomel, Aditya Tare, Hardik Tamore, Aman Khan, Sairaj Patil, Shams Mulani, Dhrumil Matkar, Tanush Kotian, Shashank Attarde, Dhaval Kulkarni, Tushar Deshpande, Mohit Awasthi, Roystan Dias, Siddharth Raut, Musheer Khan.

Arjun Tendulkar not included in Mumbai squad for Ranji Trophy knockout matches

India's batting legend Sachin <keyword id="6391" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="tendulkar" source="Orion">Tendulkar</keyword> has omitted the likes of Royal Challengers Bangalore cricketer Virat Kohli and Mumbai Indians skipper <keyword id="13937" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="rohit-sharma" source="Orion">Rohit Sharma</keyword> from his list of the "Best Playing XI" from the just-concluded IPL 2022 season. While Gujarat Titans, led by all-rounder Hardik Pandya, went on to lift the trophy at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday night defeating Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets, the Rohit Sharma-led MI had the worst season this year, finishing 10th and last. Tendulkar said his list was based purely on the performance of this IPL season and had nothing to do with previous editions. And, in this edition of the IPL, both <keyword id="445" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="sharma" source="Orion">Sharma</keyword> and Kohli performed miserably, even though the latter's side made it to the playoffs stage. "It's got nothing to do with players' reputation or their past performances. It is purely based on their performances this season and what they have been able to achieve this season," Tendulkar said on his YouTube channel. Tendulkar's team, led by Hardik Pandya, has the likes of charismatic England batter Jos Buttler -- who scored a whopping 863 runs for the Royals --, <keyword id="17805" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="shikhar-dhawan" source="Orion">Shikhar Dhawan</keyword>, KL Rahul, David Miller, Liam Livingstone, Dinesh Karthik, <keyword id="62359" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="rashid-khan" source="Orion">Rashid Khan</keyword>, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and <keyword id="798176" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="yuzvendra-chahal" source="Orion">Yuzvendra Chahal</keyword>. "Hardik was the standout captain this season. He was clear in his mind, proactive. I always say that don't regret, celebrate. If you are able to celebrate, it means the captain is outsmarting the opposition and that is what Hardik did," opined the legend. Tendulkar said that he would pick a left-right combination at the top of the batting order, and that Buttler and Dhawan were the best this season. With Buttler emerging the second-highest run-getter ever in a single IPL season and Dhawan also scoring 460 runs in 14 matches, the choice was easy to make for the former cricketer. Tendulkar then picked Lucknow Super Gianst skipper KL Rahul at No.3. The hot-shot batter scored 616 runs in 15 innings and was only surpassed by Buttler this season. "I really like his stability and consistency. He is a player who can pick singles and when he wants to hit sixes he has the ability to do that as well," said Tendulkar. Tendulkar's logic behind bringing Pandya at No. 4 and his teammate David Miller at No. 5 was that a left-right combination lent solidity in the middle overs. "Bringing another left hander here because the left-right combination is important. There are a number of names who were there but I am going to play David Miller. He showed tremendous form, very good consistency and played some crucial knocks. What I observed this season was that he was able to hit towards all sides of the ground. It was proper cricketing shots and it was a treat to watch." At No. 6, Tendulkar had hard-hitter Liam Livingstone, followed by RCB's slog-ver specialist Dinesh Karthik. "(Livingston) has the ability to hit sixes, dangerous player. He is very clear in his mind and backs himself. Dinesh Karthik showed extraordinary consistency this season. I felt he looked calm and composed. He looked in control," Tendulkar said.

Sachin made his cricket career debut at the age of 15 in Ranji Trophy in 1989 and scored a 100 against Gujarat. He was selected in the Indian cricket team by Raj Singh Durgarpur when he was 16. Tendulkar played his first cricket match against Pakistan in Karachi and scored 15 runs. Sachin’s performance peaked during 1994 and 1999. Sachin scored his first ODI century during Australia in Sri Lanka at Colombo on 9 September 1994. Even after five years of his retirement, Sachin remains the highest scorer of test cricket.

"He (Sachin Tendulkar) read me very well. Not many people can do (that). (Brian) Lara had success but he never hit me also," Muralitharan said during the trailer launch trailer of his biopic titled '800'. "I know a few people, like Rahul Dravid, he is one of the greatest players but he never read me. Sachin and (Virender Sehwag) and (Gautam) Gambhir would read. Even in my team some people read and some did not." The legendary Tendulkar, who was present on the occasion, recalled his first meeting with the spin wizard. "I remember meeting him for the first time in 1992-93, and we have continued to be good friends. "He just loved bowling and the whole world knew he had a big turner. You make him bowl on an expressway and he would turn the ball. No matter how the surface is. "He had developed the 'doosra' but spent a lot of time practicing it in the nets. For 18 months he continued practicing the 'doosra' in the nets before he bowled the first ball in international cricket. The reason for that was he should not lose his original strengths and the qualities that he possessed," Tendulkar added. Muralitharan returned the compliment. "What he (Sachin) has done in cricket, nobody can do. It is a fact. It is impossible for someone to get into First-Class cricket at 15 years, getting a Test hundred at 16-17 years (of age). Another Sachin Tendulkar won't be born in my life (time)," Muralitharan added.
