Recently, the skipper of the IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders gave an interview in which he talked about his first meeting with the legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar. Shreyas Iyer was playing in domestic cricket at that time; recalling that meeting, he stated that he was 14 yrs old when Master Blaster visited BKC in order to motivate them for a tournament and that was the first time when Shreyas Iyer got to meet Sachin and it was during a Ranji Trophy final that he got the chance to have a one-on-one chat with Sachin Tendulkar.

Shreyas Iyer said that during the brief chat that he had with Sachin, he asked about the stance and technique which varies in every match and in response Little Master told him that whatever he feels is perfect for that day is the right thing to do and he should do whatever makes him comfortable on that particular day. Shreyas Iyer said that Sachin is very obsessed with the game of cricket as he keeps on talking about that and gives many tips too.

There is no denying the fact that Sachin Tendulkar is obsessed with cricket because that obsession has played a great role in making him the God of cricket for his fans.
