Former India fast bowler Venkatesh Prasad has narrated an intriguing incident between Sachin Tendulkar and Wasim Akram from the 1990s. Explaining the same, Prasad recalled a battle between Tendulkar and Akram, and how the former left-arm pacer rattled the India batsman with a fiery bouncer. Sachin once got hit in Sharjah with the new ball and Wasim Akram was bowling. "He comes back and take the strike and the second ball… it’s a new ball and Sachin is opening. Again, no reactions from Sachin," Prasad pointed out.
