 "From Sachin Tendulkar to Sania Mirza — sportspersons celebrate World Environment Day 2021")
On the occasion of World Environment Day 2021, a number of sportspersons have come forward, pledging their support for the environment and promoting sustainable methods of development. Termed as the ‘God of Cricket’ by his fans, Sachin Tendulkar has shared a video to mark the day. Calling ‘nature’ an evergreen technology that keeps us healthy and happy, Sachin posted a video which shows him watering a field. A previous picture of the plain field was shown in the video and then it can be seen how it has transformed after Sachin took care of it. The cricketer said that he is happy to see them (plants) grow.
