When Sachin Played Under Imran

New Delhi,Feb 9:Not many know,but India's batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar

had played under Pakistan captain Imran Khan in 1988,a year before he made his international debut in Pakistan.

In a book titled 'SACH.'by Gautam Bhattacharya,Tendulkar revealed that he played under Imran but as a substitute fielder during a festival match at Cricket Club of India (CCI)in Mumbai.

Imran asked him to field in the deep and Tendulkar couldn't complete a catch and going back home,in the local train, constantly grumbled about captain's field placements.

"Absolutely true.I went in as a substitute.Imran was the Pakistan captain.No words were exchanged with him. But yes,I may've got the catch if i was kept slightly ahead (laughs)." Sachin said.

The book also revealed that a year before 1987, Sachin was selected as a promising fast bowler to train at legendary Australian fast bowler Dennis Lillee's MRF Pace Academy in Chennai.I didn't get an opportunity to bat.I did bowl for one or two sessions," Sachin said.

Former India Captain Sourav Ganguly was also part of the camp,but Sachin doesn't remember meeting him.

"As for Sourav,I don't remember meeting him there.Later on at the national camp,I caught up with him." Sachin said.
