Sachin Tendulkar has been admitted to the hospital after suffering symptoms of coronavirus
India, the great hitter Sachin Tendulkar, has been admitted to the hospital as a precaution after contracting the coronavirus.
Tendulkar, who will turn 48 later this month, was previously self-quarantined at home after testing positive last week after mild symptoms.
He tweeted: “Thank you for your wishes and prayers. As a matter of abundant precaution under medical advice, I have been hospitalized. I hope to be back home in a few days.”
“Take care and stay safe everyone. I wish all Indians and my teammates on the 10th anniversary of our World Cup that they win.”

Wishing all Indians and my teammates on the 10th anniversary of our World Cup 🇮🇳 win

Former India captain Tendulkar retired from the professional game in 2013 after scoring a still unmatched 100 international centuries in a prolific 24-year career.
He lives in Mumbai, the capital of the western Indian state of Maharashtra, which has been hit hardest by the resurgence of COVID-19 cases.
Maharashtra had as many as 43,183 new cases on Friday and the country’s financial center, Mumbai, reported 8,646 of them, both a record for single-day infections.
Earlier in the day, India reported 81,466 new COVID-19 infections, the highest daily number in six months, as several states were hit by a second wave of the coronavirus.
