Tendulkar's Women's Day Post Has "Aftermath Of 26/11" Connection

On March 8th, the world celebrates International Women's Day. It's a day to recognise the amazing things women have done throughout history and across the globe. This year, the United Nations is calling on everyone to "Invest in Women: Accelerate Progress." They believe that by supporting women, we can make the world a better place for everyone. But there's more to it than just throwing money at the problem.

Sachin Tendulkar posted a special note on the special day. "Over the years, the rise of women in sport, in India and across the world, has been very encouraging. In 2008, in the aftermath of 26/11, India won the match against England, and it was an emotional moment for the entire nation. One of the first people with whom I was able to embrace the emotion was a female ground staff member. That moment remains very special," Sachin Tendulkar wrote in a post.

"Years later, another woman in 2024, Jacintha Kalyan became the first female pitch curator for India. She is the first among, hopefully, many more to come in the future. 

"This #InternationalWomensDay, let us encourage and applaud these role models who continue to break barriers and set examples in all fields."

The legendary Sachin Tendulkar recently said playing in the Ranji Trophy provides national players an opportunity to go back to basics while also elevating the level of the domestic tournament. The BCCI recently made it mandatory for its centrally contracted players to play domestic red-ball cricket if they aren't on national duty or in the NCA. The BCCI excluded Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer from its central contract list after they missed their state team's respective Ranji Trophy games. "When India players turn up for their domestic teams, it raises the quality of play for youngsters and sometimes new talent is identified.

"It also gives the national players a chance to sometimes rediscover the basics," Tendulkar posted on X.

"Throughout my career, I remained passionate about playing for Mumbai whenever I had the opportunity. Growing up, we had almost 7-8 India players in our dressing room, and it was fun to play alongside them," Tendulkar added.
