Ajit Tendulkar, elder brother of Sachin, was the early inspiration of Sachin Tendulkar. Ajit played a significant role in Sachin’s career giving him inspiration and courage in his childhood. The most important thing is that Ajit took Sachin to Ramakant Achrekar, the childhood coach of Sachin Tendulkar, when Sachin was 11 and had no experience of playing with cricket ball (hard ball). So, in fact, it was a bold initiative taken by Ajit Tendulkar.
Ajit Tendulkar convinced Achrekar to train his brother and under good training of Achrekar, Sachin became star in his teen being a world class batsman. Sachin is now a legend in cricket world. It was Ajit who first realized the hidden talent of Sachin and having observed Sachin’s willingness to play cricket, Ajit was dreaming of something big with Sachin Tendulkar.
Ajit Tendulkar is now the manager of Sachin Tendulkar and he manages Sachin’s assignments, meeting, travel plans, his financial deals with different companies and everything else. In other words, Sachin just plays while Ajit takes care of everything else.
In his childhood, Ajit always accompanied Sachin in almost everywhere from net practice to match practice. Ajit was like an instant advisor to Sachin Tendulkar and so is he now too. You may not know that Ajit Tendulkar himself played school cricket for Balamohan and participated in Harris Shields, one of the most prestigious tournaments in junior level but could not make it to the first class.
Although Ajit could not become a successful cricketer, he surely played his part in creating the greatest batsman of our generation.
