Winning the 2011 World Cup was the Proudest Moment
Winning the 2011 World Cup was the proudest moment for Sachin Tendulkar. After becoming a ball boy in 1987, he started representing the country and winning the 2011 World Cup was the proudest moment of his life. India is hosting the World Cup, and many teams and players are putting up strong fights in the tournament. I am excited about this tournament.
