India Cricket Team legend Sachin Tendulkar is expected to be in attendance for the India vs Pakistan clash. The two arch rivals are all set to lock horns on 9th June in New York at the ICC T20 World Cup. While Sachin Tendulkar continues to be a brand ambassador for the ICC, is expected that he can be present for the match.
Sachin Tendulkar to witness India vs Pakistan?
One of the most anticipated matches in the T20 World Cup would be the clash between the two rival nations. And among the list of all the attendees, there could possibly be another name, the Master Blaster.
“Yes, if all goes well, Sachin will be watching the match in New York and cheering the Indian team,” a source working closely with the ICC told PTI on conditions of anonymity.
“It is still not known if he would meet the players prior to the game or not but his mere presence in the stands will certainly be a morale booster for Rohit Sharma and his men in what will be the most important group league assignment,” the source added.
Sachin Tendulkar has been very closely associated with the ICC since hanging up his boots. In the 2015 ODI World Cup he was ICC’s Brand Ambassador. In ODI World Cup 2023, he was announced as the Global Ambassador for the global cricket board.
