In pics: Sachin's mother, children at Wankhede today
Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium reserved a special seat for Sachin Tendulkar's mother Rajni who watched her son play his farewell test match, against West Indies on Friday, November 15. This is the first time Rajni Tendulkar has actually attended a match, having stayed away these last 24 years because she didn't want her presence to jinx Sachin's performance. Wankhede authorities built special ramps to allow Mrs Tendulkar's wheelchair easy access.
