9 Indian celebrities who are cricket-mad

 2. Amitabh Bachchan:

Amitabh Bachchan is an avid cricket fan and never misses an opportunity to cheer for the Indian cricket team. His interest in the game can be seen through his tweets as he follows the game quite closely. Bachchan also recently sung the national anthem before the India v Pakistan World T20 match. He also makes sure he congratulates the Indian cricket team after all their victories on Twitter.

During his younger days, the actor himself took time out of his schedule and had been captured playing cricket. He is also known to be close with greats like Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly.

Amitabh proved that he isn’t any dummy fan when personally jumped into a twitter banter with Andrew Flintoff. The reply, the manner in which it was delivered, was from a hardcore Indian cricket fan and not from a world renowned megastar.
