Sachin Tendulkar may have retired from international cricket years ago, but moments like these remind fans that the game still flows through his veins. The legendary Indian batter recently shared a light-hearted video from a family cricket session aboard a private jet, and the clip has quickly become a hit across social media.
The video offers a rare glimpse into Tendulkar’s personal life, showing the former India captain enjoying an impromptu cricket match with his family while travelling. Even at 53, the Master Blaster’s love for batting and playful competitive spirit remain very much intact. “No matter what the altitude, the attitude shouldn’t change,” Sachin Tendulkar wrote in the caption, delivering a classic cricket pun that instantly resonated with fans.
In the video, Tendulkar is seen batting inside the aircraft cabin with a soft red ball being bowled by his daughter-in-law, Saaniya Chandhok, who is married to Arjun Tendulkar. His daughter, Sara Tendulkar, joins the fun from the sidelines before stepping into the action as a fielder.

One of the funniest moments comes when Sara jokingly appeals for her father’s wicket. Tendulkar, smiling confidently, responds: “You’ll never be able to get me out. You’ll never be able to get me out.” The banter gets even better when Tendulkar flips his bat upside down and continues batting with the handle facing downwards. “Only way, there is a remote possibility if I bat like this,” he jokes, leaving everyone in the cabin laughing.

Soon after, Sara finally gets her chance. She initially drops a catch, sparking more laughter, but makes amends on the very next ball by taking a clean catch and celebrating with an enthusiastic “Yay!” as Tendulkar finally accepts defeat.
