Just like the rest of the country, Indian cricketers too played Holi with great pomp. In Raipur, Little Master Sachin Tendulkar led from the front and ensured that Yuvraj Singh, his teammate for the Indian team at the International Masters League (IML), was drenched well after leading a gang of pranksters to Yuvraj’s hotel room.
Tendulkar ambushed Yuvraj, who seemed to be sleeping late on Holi, in his room with a water gun. Tendulkar was joined by his International Masters League teammates like Yusuf Pathan and Rahul Sharma.
“This water gun is loaded and we’re headed to Yuvraj’s room. He’s sleeping right now after hitting way too many sixes the last night (in the semi-finals against Australia at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium, New Raipur),” Tendulkar says in a video he posted on social media before marching with teammates to Yuvraj’s room where they pretend to be from housekeeping to get Yuvraj to open the door before attacking him.

Meanwhile, Tendulkar’s one-time Indian cricket team mate, Rahul Dravid was also a part of the Holi celebrations for his Indian Premier League team Rajasthan Royals.
Dravid is currently nursing a serious injury on his foot and has been wearing a cast on his left foot. A video from Rajasthan Royals showed the Royals celebrating with pink gulal and some of the players, led by Yashasvi Jaiswal, approaching Dravid to politely apply gulal on the face of the Indian cricket legend.
