As the nation gears up for Sachin Tendulkar's last test match, Musafir.com, an online travel website, has offered free cab rides to fans to Wankhede Stadium as a tribute to the master blaster.

Tendulkar, also the brand ambassador of Musafir.com, will play his 200th Test match against West Indies in his hometown Mumbai from Nov 14 to Nov 18.

The travel website has hired 200 TABcabs that will offer free rides from different junctions of the city to Wankhede Stadium free of cost during the five days of the match.

"On the occasion of his 200th test match, providing comfortable travel to cricket fans to witness his final test match is our small way of saluting the Little Master," Sachin Gadoya, managing director, Musafir.com said, said in a statement.

"Though the sporting icon will be missed on the cricket field, we are proud to be associated with the legend as the brand ambassador of Musafir.com," he added.

The fans will have to show their match tickets to avail the free cab service.
