WATCH: Sachin Tendulkar celebrates Holi with former India cricketers, surprises Yuvraj Singh with an epic prank

Sachin Tendulkar shared a Holi celebration video with his India Masters teammates on the sidelines of the inaugural International Masters League (IML) T20, 2025. The legendary cricketer was seen having a blast as he masterminded a prank to wake up Yuvraj Singh.

In the video, which has broken the internet, Sachin made his intentions clear from the outset, saying that he would wake up Yuvraj, who scored a match-winning half-century in the first semi-final against Australia Masters on Thursday, March 13. The Little Master spearheaded the entire team as they headed towards Yuvraj's room and posed as hotel housekeeping staff.

They called out the former world champion, who opened the door without any idea of what was in store for him. As soon as the legendary all-rounder stepped out of his room, Sachin greeted him with a water splash and wished him a happy Holi. The others joined in and it made for heartwarming visuals. Sachin and Co. did not stop there as they performed an identical prank on Ambati Rayudu as well.

After Shane Watson won the toss and opted to field first on a belter of a track, India Masters lost the wicket of Rayudu in the second over. Sachin played a glorious knock and helped his team score 60 runs in the powerplay. Yuvraj joined Sachin and the duo rewinded the clock by forming an eye-catching partnership of 47 runs.

Sachin was dismissed for 42 but Yuvraj took the Aussie spinners to the cleaners, slamming a 30-ball 59 with the help of one four and seven sixes. Stuart Binny, Yusuf Pathan, and Irfan Pathan played important cameos as India Masters posted a mammoth 220/7.

Shahbaz Nadeem starred with the ball for India Masters as his four-for derailed Australia Masters' run-chase. Watson and Co. were bowled out for 126 in 18.1 overs, losing by 94 runs. India Masters will now face the winner of the second semi-final between West Indies Masters and Sri Lanka Masters in the final.
