Controversial stand-up comedian & Bigg Boss 17 winner Munawar Faruqui on Wednesday took the internet by storm after he dismissed Sachin Tendulkar during a promotional tennis ball cricket match. Ever since then, Munawar Faruqui dismissing Sachin Tendulkar video is breaking the internet on social media, and fans shell shocked at how the comedian completely outfoxed the 'Little Master'. In the viral Munawar Faruqui-Sachin Tendulkar video, it can be seen the Bigg Boss winner bowling at Tendulkar. Munawar Faruqui threw the ball at a relatively slower pace. Seeing the ball coming at his legs, Sachin Tendulkar tried to pull out the pick-up shot. However, due to low pace, Sachin mistimes it and the ball takes the edge going up in the sky and falling in the fielder's hand. After the catch was taken, Munawar Faruqui could not believe it and ran towards the fielder to celebrate the wicket of Sahin Tendulkar.
On Wednesday, Khiladi XI locked horns with Master's XI at the Dadoji Kondadev Stadium in Thane in an Indian Street Premier League (ISPL) 2024. The ISPL brought together both the entertainment industry and cricketing personalities, with teams led by Sachin Tendulkar and Akshay Kumar. Stand-up comedian and Bigg Boss winner Munawar Faruqui garnered attention with his medium-pace bowling.
During the 5th over of the match, Tendulkar, who had already scored a quick-fire 30 runs from 16 deliveries, faced the second delivery of Munawar's first over. Attempting to hit a delivery outside the off-stump, Tendulkar mistimed the shot and was caught at gully by wicketkeeper Naman Ojha.
