Sachin Tendulkar is fondly called God of cricket in India and his latest post on Instagram will pretty much justify his nickname once again. The former India batsman completed the “#KeepItUp challenge” given by his ex-teammate Yuvraj Singh in an incredible manner and also challenged him back.
On Friday, Yuvraj Singh had taken to Twitter to nominate Sachin Tendulkar, Rohit Sharma and Harbhajan Singh for #KeepItUp challenge to prevent spread of coronavirus. He shared a video in which he could be seen keeping a ball bouncing on the side of his bat as he nominated his former teammates.
In these challenging times, I am committed to staying at home to prevent the spread of #Covid19 and will #KeepItUp as long as it is required.
I further nominate master blaster @sachin_rt hit man @ImRo45 and turbanator @harbhajan_singh @UN @deespeak pic.twitter.com/20OmrHt9zv

And Sachin Tendulkar did not take long to respond to Yuvraj’s challenge and one can say that the batting maestro has easily won the challenge. Like Yuvraj, Sachin Tendulkar too bounced the ball on the edge of his bat but with a twist. The batting legend did it with a blindfold! and also challenged Yuvraj to repeat the challenge in the same manner.
Taking to Twitter, Sachin Tendulkar wrote, “I am challenging you back @yuvisofficial, but this time with a twist!! All I can ask everyone to do is take care and stay safe!”
Sachin Tendulkar’s response left not only the fans but also Yuvraj impressed and the latter did not waste any time in expressing his feelings as he replied: “I knew I challenged the wrong legend ! This might take a week il try.”
Sachin Tendulkar is the most decorated batsman in the history of the game. The greatest ODI player of all time, he finished his illustrious career in the 50-over format, having played 463 ODIs, scored 18,426 runs and made 49 centuries, each of them a world record. The batting maestro finished his Test career with a record 15,921 runs in 200 Tests with the help of 51 centuries and 68 fifties.
