Sachin Tendulkar impressed by dog's 'sharp ball catching skills'

"Received this from a friend and I must say, those are some 'sharp' ball catching skills. We've seen wicket-keepers, fielders and all-rounders in cricket, but what would you name this?" tweeted Sachin Tendulkar. The former India skipper last Tuesday visited social projects for children that he is supporting in various parts of Madhya Pradesh. He also took stock of the construction of a school that his foundation is building in association with 'Parivaar', in memory of his late father Professor Ramesh Tendulkar.

While there have been various reports of the social work that Tendulkar has been doing before and during the pandemic safety restrictions have kept him from physically visiting the projects and beneficiaries.

With the situation around COVID-19 easing, he visited children in the remote village of Sewaniya in Madhya Pradesh. The children get nutritious meals, and an opportunity at complementary education and sports in 'seva kutirs'. Parivaar, an NGO that Tendulkar's foundation supports, runs these seva kutirs for most vulnerable tribal children.
