Sachin Tendulkar Rings The Bell Before Start Of Fourth ODI Against West Indies

Written by Vishwas Gupta

Before the start of the fourth ODI between India and the West Indies at the Brabourne Cricket Stadium in Mumbai on Monday, legendary Sachin Tendulkar rang the bell to indicate the beginning of the match. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) took to Twitter to post the video and wrote, “A kind of firsts here at CCI as the Master Blaster @sachin_rt rings the bell before the start of play today.” This is the first international game the Brabourne Stadium has hosted in nine years, the last one played here was an India-Sri Lanka Test match in 2009.

Tendulkar retired from cricket back in 2013, playing his last Test match against the West Indies at the Wankhede Stadium. He has played 200 Test matches and 463 ODIs and is the only batsman to get to a hundred centuries in international cricket.
