I was present for Sachin's first and last

When a young Sachin Tendulkar stepped on the cricket field at Karachi, Chennai's Krishnamachari Srikkanth was the captain. And now, on the day Sachin stepped on to Wankhade one last time, Cheeka was there to cheer him on. "It was an emotional moment for me to be in Mumbai and watch his last Test match," says Srikkanth, "When you look back, I have no words to describe it."

The Chennai opener spoke to Sachin before the start of the Mumbai Test against the West Indies. "I wanted to personally be there and wish him. I am among the few lucky ones to have been present for his first Test match in Karachi and the last match at Mumbai, It's an honour for me to have been associated with him in all capacities."

Does he recall that moment in 1989 when he first met Sachin? "Oh yes, I can still remember his baby face. The way he's matured from then to now is outstanding. Despite all this, he's a simple and humble person. That is Sachin's hallmark."

In the movies
Sachin, Sachin, Sachin... that's the name on everybody's lips. Even as the Master Blaster bid farewell, in an emotional manner, to the sport he loves a lot, Times of India takes a look at all the filmi connections that the man has in Kollywood:

#Ilayathalapathy Vijay has had several names common in Chennai in his films - such as Shiva, Velu, etc. But, one movie that stands out is Sachein, which might not have had a direct link with the cricketing legend but struck a chord with youngsters interested in the game as well.

#Want to describe a fight between a guy and a girl? Well, in Tamil lyrics, it's possible to get a Sachin link even there.
In Vanakkam Chennai, a lyric goes - Sachinnu nee than, Aktharu na than... denoting a fight of sorts between the two

#In the recently-released Ya Ya, Shiva and Santhanam are named Dhoni and Sehwag, However, close to the end of the film, Sehwag is rechristened Sachin!
