Friendship Day 2023: Sachin Tendulkar shared a post with his old friends which has gone viral on social media.

India's cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar shared a Friendship Day post on social media which has gone viral. His latest post features a picture with his "first bunch of friends". The highest run-scorer in international cricket ever, Tendulkar, revealed that he is still in touch with his friends in that picture. 

"Amid the hustle bustle, let's pause and celebrate Friendship! Today on #FriendshipDay, I remember my first bunch of friends from Sahitya Sahwas and those priceless memories which bring an instant smile to my face & I feel fortunate for being in touch with them even till this day. Tag such friends of yours and let them know that they're special! ♥️ #friends #friendship #friendshipday," Tendulkar captioned the post.

Meanwhile, cricket administrator Amrit Mathur, who was the team's media manager during the Indian cricket team's tour of Pakistan in 2004, in his memoir "Pitchside: My Life in Cricket" praised Tendulkar while also talking about Mohammed Kaif's catch to dismiss Shoaib Malik that changed the complexion of the first ODI in Karachi.

However, Marthur revealed that Pervez Musharraf reserved his best praise for India pacer Lakshmipathy Balaji. 

"But Musharraf's best is reserved for Balaji, whom he hails as a great soldier, fighting bravely for his team even in a lost cause. As a soldier, he announces, not without a touch of drama, I salute his spirit," Mathur writes.

"Musharraf's charm offensive continues through the 'chai' ceremony. In what appears to be a carefully thought-through act, he mingles with the players, breaking protocol to make informal conversation. He requests Sachin for a photo, pats Balaji on the back and has a longish conversation with a beaming Parthiv Patel," he adds.
