Sourav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar are regarded as one of the best opening duos to have ever graced the game of cricket. Watching the dynamic duo — Ganguly-Tendulkar, walking out to bat in the limited-overs format of the game, used to be an eye treat for the fans. The duo is responsible for making our childhood memorable with their thrilling and swashbuckling performances.
The duo amassed 6609 runs at an average of 49.32 in 136 games they played together, smashing 23 half-centuries and 21-centuries, a record that still stands strong.
Even after their retirement, the cricket fans were often delighted whenever the duo came together on various public platforms and commentated together during the 2015 and 2019 world cup. The duo is very much active on their social media as well. On Thursday, the fans were delighted after Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly indulged in hilarious banter on Instagram.

BCCI President and former Indian captain, Sourav Ganguly who is currently busy fulfilling his duties of BCCI President expressed his emotions of being desperate for a vacation. He jokingly wrote:
“Kisi kisi ka kismat acha hai .. chuttii manate raho ( which roughly translates to: some people have great luck, keep enjoying your holidays),”
To which, Sachin Tendulkar came up with a brilliant reply expressing how it was a worthwhile vacation as he alongwith other cricketers managed to raise funds worth $10millions for the relief of communities affected by Bushfire in Australia. He wrote:
“Worthwhile holiday Dadi…we were able to raise about $10M”
