Sachin Tendulkar‘s longevity in cricket helped him witness some of the biggest highs the game could offer a player. However, he also found himself at the receiving end of a few occurrences that no other cricketer would wish to experience during his playing career.
Recalling those forgettable memories when he was adjudged out on the field despite being not out, the “Master Blaster” shared a cryptic post on X and took a jibe at an umpire.
Sachin posted a picture on X with three trees in the background resembling the three sets of stumps on a cricket pitch and captioned it as “Can you guess which umpire made the stumps feel this big?”
Sachin’s post has taken the social media platforms by storm and though the batting great didn’t name an umpire, netizens have guessed it to be West Indies’ Steve Bucknor.
Sachin’s former teammates Aakash Chopra and Irfan Pathan also responded by taking Steve Bucknor’s name. Cricketer-turned-broadcaster Chopra said, “Steve Bucknor…especially when you were batting”, whereas Irfan used Bucknor’s initials to react to Sachin’s viral post.
