Sachin Tendulkar, throughout a quarter of a century, made the best bowlers in the world look helpless. But on Saturday afternoon, the Master Blaster was 'forced' to ask fans for help. This after he 'announced that he had missed the last bus' out of a rural English village.
Tendulkar, who is holidaying with his wife Anjali in England, had on Friday gone to watch a Wimbledon semi-final between Novak Djokovic and Richard Gasquet at Centre Court with Indian Test skipper Virat Kohli and his girlfriend Anushka Sharma.
A day later, the 42-year-old former cricketer got a taste of the real country life in England, when he got 'stuck' in Great Haseley, near Oxford. A regular on Instagram, the man with 100 international hundreds posted a photograph on Instagram with the message: "In Great Haseley, Oxfordshire. Missed the last bus, can anyone give me a lift??"
