Tendulkar’s Reflections

“I first visited Lord’s as a teenager in 1988... I remember standing near the pavilion, soaking in the history and dreaming quietly. Today, to have my portrait unveiled at this very place is a feeling that’s hard to put into words. Life has truly come full circle. I’m grateful, and filled with wonderful memories,” Tendulkar shared on social media.
