Achrekar wants to be in stadium for Tendulkar's swan song game

He can barely talk and walk due to health issues but Ramakant Achrekar wants to be in the spectators gallery when his celebrated ward, Sachin Tendulkar, would take guard for one last time, next month.
Tendulkar has announced that he will bid adieu to the game after playing his 200th Test match, which will be against West Indies next month.
Achrekar, who nurtured Tendulkar's game in his childhood days, has expressed interest in going to stadium if Tendulkar's swan song game is held in Mumbai.
"It will be very difficult for him to go to the stadium but he will go if Sachin's last match is hosted at Wankhede stadium. It will be an emotional moment for him and he wants to witness it on the ground. He always says that there will be no other Sachin," Achrekar's daughter Kalpana Murkar told PTI- Bhasha over phone.

When asked about his reaction over Tendulkar's retirement announcement, she said that Acherkar is sad.
"We knew that it will happen in near future but he is sad. He wanted him to play more but said it is his decision and everyone should respect it," she said.
