Sachin Tendulkar is one of the biggest names in World Cricket. He has been a LEGEND of this game for decades now. The LITTLE MASTER or the MASTER BLASTER, whichever nickname you prefer, has done it all. From winning individual awards, to World Cups and much more, he is considered a CRICKETING GOD in the country of India.
There have been many comparisons over the years, as to bigger and better stars. Now, these continue to happen from time to time. However, when Sachin Tendulkar was about to hang up his boots for the final time, the world was watching for sure.
And when two legends of a different type met rather recently, they had something to say about it. It was the venue of the WTC Final, the Oval. And the two men who met and shared a moment were Harsha Bhogle and Peter Drury.
What Was The One Lesser Known Fact About Harsha Bhogle And Sachin Tendulkar That The Former Has Spoken About Often And Revealed Once More!?
Not a lot of people know this, but Harsha Bhogle knows Sachin Tendulkar for quite some time now. The duo have been associated since 1987. Yes, that’s how long the game of cricket has kept them both connected. And it’s amazing when you think about it. This was once again revealed during the session between Bhogle and Drury, during the WTC final.
However, Harsha Bhogle had previously recalled the time when he first interviewed Sachin Tendulkar. It was way back in 1987 when the cricketer, that eventually turned into a LEGEND of the game, was only 14.
Below is the show in which Harsha came out and gave away all those tiny details!!
It’s out now!

Now, as mentioned above, this was the real reason why Harsha was picked to commentate on Sachin’s final Test match. And he did not disappoint. As confirmed, he spoke from his heart. And the rest just followed!!
What Next For The Legend Who Is 50 Now!?
Recently, Sachin Tendulkar celebrated his 50th birthday. It was a great moment for him and his fans. This was during the IPL 2023 tournament and his fans were in the stadium. It was a home game for the Mumbai Indians team at the Wankhede Stadium.
A LEGEND of the game growing old with time. How often have we seen that over the years. Time gets to everyone and no matter who you are, the name shall never be forgotten. And to add to that, LEGENDS like Harsha Bhogle keep such moments alive and memorable for the fans across the globe.
What would we do without commentators and their background ‘music’!! The game would be dull and the atmosphere not as electric. With that being said, let’s hope that there are plenty of such moments in the days that follow. Another aspiring Sachin Tendulkar somewhere, who grows up to become another top LEGEND of the game for sure!!
