India batting great Sachin Tendulkar said on Saturday he has contracted coronavirus and has mild symptoms, as infections continued to surge in the world’s second-most populated country.
Tendulkar, who will turn 48 next month, retired from the professional game in 2013 after compiling a still-unmatched 100 international centuries in a prolific 24-year career. He returned to the crease recently as captain of the India Legends team in a promotional event called the Road Safety World Series in Raipur, in the state of Chhattisgarh.
