Banned fast bowler S Sreesanth has often spoken about his admiration for the legendary Sachin Tendulkar. The pacer shared an interesting anecdote related to batting legend Sachin Tendulkar in an episode of reality TV show Bigg Boss on Monday. S Sreesanth was part of India’s both ICC T20 2007 and 2011 World Cup squads. A few years after India’s triumph in 2011, all the World Cup winning players from India were being interviewed.
S Sreesanth recalled that particular interview thanking Sachin Tendulkar for taking his side during that interaction. “I want to share one incident related to Sachin Tendulkar. 1-2 years after our 2011 World Cup triumph, an interview was going on.
The interviewer asked about everyone. 2011 you guys played well taking all players’ names but not mine. When the interview was about to end, Sachin Tendulkar prompted my name saying Sreesanth also played a major role. I cried a lot during that time”, he told his fellow participant Anup Jalota.
