Sachin Tendulkar cuts own hair, shows off rhyming skills

by Wisden Staff 2 minute read

Sachin Tendulkar has had to take matters into his own hands to avoid his hair growing to unruly lenghts due to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Little Master took to Instagram to show off his hairdressing skills, and, never one to let a scoring opportunity go by, demonstrated his poetry proficiency too.

“From playing square cuts to doing my own hair cuts,” he captioned the photo.

He follows Virat Kohli in choosing to go for a DIY touch up, with Anushka Sharma, the India captain’s wife, posting a video almost three weeks ago of her cutting her husband’s hair. Sachin may have been waiting for lockdown to end before getting a trim, but with containment measures having been extended to at least May 3, decided enough was enough.

Are you impressed with his efforts?
