They are best friends since childhood. Played a lot of cricket together for many years. They have huge respect for each other. Sachin left wankhede after being greeted by that ‘best friend’.
Everything was over. West Indies team have left the stadium. Someone from the Indian dressing room ordered MCA authorities to keep the bus ready. Team left the dressing room and boarded the bus. As soon as the bus started to roll on, sachin’s wife spotted someone coming towards the bus. She said that to sachin and then sachin asked the driver to stop the bus. It was Sourav who was rushing towards the bus to greet and congratulate sachin. Sachin came down from the bus. They hugged each other. Undoubtedly the best picture of the whole series. Actually it was only Sourav, no other former cricketer (dravid laxman etc) did that. Everyone, Starting from the team mates in the bus to the passer byes were excited and mersmerised seeing the scene. Sourav was emotional too. Regarding Sachin’s farewell, he said, " It's a Grand Farewell that is to be Remembered for a long time ".
