However, some soldiers of the Indian Army and Jammu and Kashmir Police are also seen in this video, who are deployed for their security. During this time, by playing an interesting shot with the bat upside down, Sachin has told his fans that even though it has been more than a decade since he left cricket, the Master Blaster still knows how to middle the ball very well.
To play this shot, he held the lower part of his bat in his hands, while making the handle his bottom. But as soon as the ball came closer to him, even in this situation, he played the ball in the middle of his handle and drove it. While sharing this video, Sachin wrote in the caption, ‘Cricket & Kashmir: A match in heaven!’
