Aamir’s @satyamevjayate episode was a déjà vu for me, sports4all will change country’s future #MumkinHai

Tendulkar said that sports was discouraged in our country and academics was given higher preference. He thanked his professors in school, who encouraged his cricket. He also said that sports instilled many positive qualities in students, and therefore, should be included as a subject.
Tendulkar has retired from international cricket. During his career, he broke several records and won many hearts. He is the only player to have scored 100 international centuries, and even holds the record for most runs.
