There are people who stopped following cricket after Sachin Tendulkar had retired. So too, there are tennis fanatics who stopped following the sport after Boris Becker had retired.

And when the two legends happened to meet, the Indian icon didn't miss out on the opportunity to capture the exquisite moment. He posted the photograph with Boris Becker on his official Twitter account on Monday.

One can easily spot the joy on Tendulkar's face. Becker had been Tendulkar's icon and the man himself tweeted it out.

Guess what? Bumped into a tennis superstar who I admired and grew up watching!!! What a lovely man @TheBorisBecker pic.twitter.com/QLzXF3NFXy sachin tendulkar (@sachin_rt) June 15, 2015

The photograph will be cherished by fans of both sports. Close to a thousand re-tweets bear witness to the buzz that the photograph has created on social media.
