After wielding the willow for close to 18 years, Sachin Tendulkar will
try his hand at tennis here tomorrow when he would team up with Sania Mirza
and Mahesh Bhupathi for a fun doubles match at the Sunfeast Open.
The cricket icon is scheduled to play alongside Sania and Bhupathi at the Netaji
Indoor Stadium.
The match, a promotional event of the USD 175,000 WTA Sunfeast
tournament, would also see a yet unnamed celebrity on the court.
Tendulkar's arrival has generated lot of interest as he is
being touted as a front runner to fill up the national captain's slot, left
vacant after Rahul Dravid's resignation last week.
Sachin, who will be arriving in the morning, is a brand ambassador
of Sunfeast, the confectionary brand of ITC Foods.
