India Masters teammates, including skipper Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh, Irfan Pathan, and other players, celebrated the festival of Holi with great enthusiasm on Friday, March 14. Tendulkar took to his X account to share a video showing him and the other players visiting Yuvraj's room at the team hotel, where they playfully doused him with colors.

In the video, the 51-year-old can be heard saying:

“Pani ka gun loaded hai, jaa rahe hai Yuvraj Singh sahab ke room mein, so rahe hai, kal raat chakke bahut maare hai isne, abhi hum marenge.” [The water gun is loaded, we're heading to Yuvraj Singh's room, he's sleeping. Last night he hit a lot of sixes, now it's our turn.]

He captioned the post:

“Holi fun with my @imlt20official teammates, from blue jerseys to colorful moments, this is how we say, “Happy Holi!”

The team was last in action on Thursday, March 13, when they played against Australia Masters in the semifinal of the International Masters League (IML) T20 2025 at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur.
