Batting icon, Mr Sachin Tendulkar, turned 39 on Tuesday and will celebrate the occasion with a simple cake cutting function with his family and Mumbai Indians team mates later in the evening at the team hotel here.
Even though Mr Tendulkar has no special plans up his sleeve for his birthday, his Mumbai Indians team mates have planned a cake cutting ceremony in the evening after returning to the hotel from the practice session at the PCA stadium in Mohali ahead of their IPL match against Kings XI Punjab tomorrow.
Mr Tendulkar, his wife Ms Anjali along with Mumbai Indians team members reached here yesterday by an afternoon flight from Mumbai.
The five star hotel where Mumbai Indians team is staying have made arrangements on their own to throw a party to celebrate Tendulkar’s birthday, his first after scoring his 100th international ton.
But the event is likely to be a low key affair in which Mumbai Indians team owner, Ms Nita Ambani, is also likely to be present.
“We are ready with our arrangements, but so far there is no word from Tendulkar’s side,” a senior official of the hotel, JW Marriott told
