Instagram is one of the mediums through which we can have a direct interaction with these stars.Here is a look at 10 flamboyant cricketers whom you should be following on Instagram. 

#1 Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar’s instagram account is a treat for fans of the God

In the years gone by fans of Sachin Tendulkar, which pretty much includes everyone who has heard of him, would rely solely on queing up at his public appearances or matches to catch a glimpse of him. Now thanks to Instagram fans can get access to candid posts by the man himself.

This medium also offer fans an opportunity for physical interaction with their idols. Sachin once posted a picture of himself at a bus stop on Instagram saying: “In Great Haseley Oxfordshire. Missed the last bus, can anyone give me a lift??” The number of vehicles queuing up for that would probablly cause a traffic jam across the city.

Times have certainly changed from back when Sachin was a 11 year old child who had to stand in crowded buses while lugging a oversized cricket kit bag.

He also posts about his career highlights: “First #International #Century at #OldTrafford was special. 25 years later it continues to remain special. Planning to pick the bat today for old times sake for a special session.“
