Emotional Tendulkar touches home pitch before saying goodbye to cricket

    
The West Indies players personally congratulated Tendulkar as he accepted each and every emerging hand with the same grace and humility that has been his hallmark for almost
two and half decades.
    


The crowd was on its feet, so were each and everyone in the press-box. He was back on the ground for the presentation accompanied by his wife Anjali and children, Arjun and Sara.
     
After being presented a couple of mementos, Tendulkar gave a speech to thank every contributor to his 24-year-career before taking a lap of honour.
     
The TV crew tried to catch each and every contour of Tendulkar's facial expression before the likes of Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli hoisted him on their shoulders.
    
The master was seen waving the tri-colour as he acknowledged his emotionally-overwhelmed fans.
