The God of cricket, Sachin Tendulkar, who recently celebrated his 45th birthday, revealed about the time he was scolded by his elder brother for screaming at former national teammate VVS Laxman.
It was during the iconic Desert Storm at Sharjah, twenty years back in 1998, when the said incident occurred.
Sachin single-handedly propelled the Indian team to win the Coca-Cola Cup. So much so, India beat Australia twice in the business end of the tournament.

“I was fortunate that I was at the non-strikers’ end,” claimed VVS Laxman while conducting an interaction with Mumbai Indian icon, Sachin Tendulkar.
To which, Sachin mentioned that he was so zoned into his special knock that he did not realise he was shouting at poor Laxman.

Therefore, his elder brother Ajit Tendulkar, looking at his behaviour, screamed at Sachin Tendulkar for his behaviour.
“I got shouted at when I got back home. My brother shouted at me for shouting at you. He said what were you doing in the middle, he is your team-mate, he is supporting you and you are shouting at him. I said I am sorry. I will never do that again,” said birthday boy Sachin Tendulkar.
