n Sachin Tendulkar may have retired from international cricket long ago, but his love and deeply ingrained passion for the game remain alive and vibrant. The Master Blaster continues to find time for the sport and often shares heartwarming moments with admirers across the globe.
His latest video on X (formerly Twitter) is yet another testament to his never‑ending affection for cricket. In the clip, Sachin can be seen batting aboard a flight, turning the cabin into a makeshift pitch. The video also features his daughter‑in‑law, Saaniya Chandhok, and daughter Sara Tendulkar.
Saaniya is seen bowling to her father‑in‑law, while Sara joins in as a fielder.
In the video, Sachin remarks: “No matter what the altitude is, the attitude should never change.”
“You guys would never be able to get me out. You would never be able to get me out,” he adds with a touch of sarcasm.
Sachin then jokingly demonstrates a remote possibility of dismissal before Sara holds onto a catch.
“Only way… there is a remote possibility if I bat like this,” he says, holding the edge of the bat toward Saaniya instead of presenting the full face of the willow.
Altitude jo bhi ho, attitude change nahi hona chahiye. 😄 pic.twitter.com/TPbsNUe2Op

Sachin lauds son Arjun's patience
Not long ago, Sachin lauded his son, Arjun Tendulkar, for showing patience while waiting for his chance to play in the recently concluded Indian Premier League (IPL) season with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG).
Arjun had to bide his time throughout the tournament and finally got his opportunity in the last game of the season. He made the most of it, scoring an unbeaten five and delivering a full quota of four overs. His figures of 1/36 included the prized wicket of Prabhsimran Singh.
Despite Arjun’s effort, LSG went down to Punjab Kings (PBKS) by seven wickets and ended the season at the bottom of the table with the wooden spoon.
Sachin’s words of encouragement emphasised the importance of resilience and patience in professional cricket.
Well done, Arjun. ❤️
