ICC World Cup 2011 final: 3 unforgettable memories

#3 Sachin Tendulkar was carried around the ground

It was a cherishable moment.

It was a dream came true for Sachin Tendulkar. The Little Master had waited a long for this moment and when it fulfilled, it was extremely emotional for the whole team. As soon as Dhoni finished the match with a memorable six, Sachin Tendulkar came running to the field and celebrated with Dhoni with a huge, satisfying smile.

Winning the World Cup at his home ground, Sachin Tendulkar could not have asked for more. Understanding the importance of the moment, Indian players lifted Sachin on their shoulders and carried him around the iconic Wankhede Stadium for a lap of honour. Yusuf Pathan and Virat Kohli lifted Sachin and the whole team walked together to create an unforgettable atmosphere. Everyone present at the stadium or who watched it on their TV sets cannot forget the emotional moment when Sachin was given the lap of honour.
