New Delhi, November 14: For all the fame he achieved even before the start of his international career, Sachin Tendulkar’s wife Anjali couldn’t recognise him when they first met in 1990 and she says the batting maestro perhaps fell for her lack of cricket knowledge.
“I first met him at the Mumbai airport when he returned from his first tour of England in 1990, after scoring his maiden Test ton. In fact, when I first saw him at the airport, I didn’t even know who he was. It was purely by accident!” Anjali, who married Tendulkar in 1995, said.
“I was there to pick up my mother and Sachin was arriving with the Indian team. That’s where we saw each other for the first time… we had a courtship of five years and got married in 1995.
