Sachin Tendulkar on Tuesday came up with a cheeky tweet to congratulate his former teammate Rahul Dravid on his induction into the ICC Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n
The master blaster shared a picture of himself with Dravid on his Twitter timeline and using Dravid\u2019s nickname \u2018The Wall\u2019 – which he received for his ability to bat for hours on end during Test matches – Tendulkar wrote in his Twitter post, \u201cCongratulations, Rahul Dravid. The wall is finally in the HALL. Much deserved.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tendulkar and Dravid form India\u2019s most successful pair in Test cricket with a tally of 6920 runs at an impressive average of 50.51.<\/p>\n
The pair played together for the country for a period of 16 years between 1996 and 2012 and were involved in record 20 plus century stands.<\/p>\n
Dravid, who is currently serving as the coach of India\u2019s Under-19 team, was inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame along with former Australian captain Ricky Ponting and former England woman team\u2019s wicketkeeper Claire Taylor during a special ceremony in Dublin on Sunday.<\/p>\n
This made the 45-year-old the fifth cricketer from India to be named on the elite list. Prior to him, Bishan Singh Bedi, Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev and Anil Kumble received the same honour for their contribution to the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
