Known to be an avid golf lover, Sachin Tendulkar took to social media to post a video of him learning how to play the sport left-handed.

Introducing his former teammate, Sachin said, "Guys, do you know I am ambidextrous and today happens to be Left-Handers Day. Normally I play right-handed but today I am going to give it a try with my left hand. Who's going to teach me how to do it to get it right. Any guesses?"
