Switchblade Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Quote ‘Well played sir, may you coach more wherever you are’: Sachin Tendulkar pays tribute to Ramakant Achrekar https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/well-played-sir-may-you-coach-more-wherever-you-are-sachin-tendulkar-pays-tribute-to-ramakant-achrekar/story-OM4xwucjFPEU8IqZ1H5DaM.html “Cricket in heaven will be enriched with the presence of (Ramakant) Achrekar sir,” said iconic former batsman Sachin Tendulkar as he paid an emotional tribute to his childhood coach who passed away Wednesday. Achrekar, 87, died in Mumbai due to old age-related ailments. “Like many of his students, I learnt my ABCD of cricket under Sir’s guidance,” said the Dronacharya awardee’s most famous ward, in a statement. “His contribution to my life cannot be captured in words. He built the foundation that I stand on,” he added. “Last month, I met Sir along with some of his students and spent some time together. We shared a laugh as we remembered the old times,” he said. “Achrekar sir taught us the virtues of playing straight and living straight. Thank you for making us a part of your life and enriching us with your coaching manual. “Well played Sir and may you coach more wherever you are,” he signed off.
