Sachin Tendulkar rolls back years with picture-perfect straight drive in nets ahead of International Masters League
Sachin Tendulkar is back in the nets. The trademark straight drive is still as perfect as it used to be.
Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar, who was recently conferred with the Col CK Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award during the annual BCCI Naman Awards, has hit the ground running, and the legend of the game is leaving no stone unturned to prepare for the upcoming International Masters League.

Sachin Tendulkar is now giving fans proper nostalgia as the video of him batting in the nets showcases how the right-hander is still the batter of old and can give the youngsters a run for their money.
Mumbai Indians shared the video on social media, in which Tendulkar is seen training hard in the nets. In the video, Tendulkar is seen practising a wide array of shots, and of course, he also brings out the trademark straight drive.
"Look who we saw batting in the nets from our windows," Mumbai Indians wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
