Government resolution

Kamath Memorial Cricket Club: Legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has welcomed the Maharashtra government's decision to build a memorial for his childhood coach Ramakant Achrekar at Mumbai's Shivaji Park to honour the latter's contribution to the Indian cricket circuit.

Achrekar coached Tendulkar and several other Indian players during their childhood at the fabled cricketing centre in Mumbai.

"Achrekar Sir has had an immense impact on my life and several other lives. I am speaking on behalf of all his students. His life revolved around cricket in Shivaji Park. Being at Shivaji Park forever is what he would have wished for," Tendulkar wrote on X.
