Kripya Mask Lagayen, Savdhani Rakhe, Apane Aap Ko Aur Aapke Apano Ko COVID-19 Se Bachaye. @sachin_rt Ji Ke Shighra Hi Purn Swasth Hone Ki Kamna Karta Karta Hoon”. (What are people like us when even the God of cricket cannot remain untouched by COVID-19. Please wear a mask. Be careful, protect yourself and your loved ones from COVID-19. @sachin_rt wish you an early recovery).
