Sachin Tendulkar surprised a bat manufacturing unit in Pulwama by paying them a sudden visit. Sachin visited the unit with his wife, Anjali Tendulkar and daughter, Sara in attendance. Tendulkar checked the quality of the bats made with Kashmir willow and seemed thoroughly impressed with it. The God of Cricket had paid a visit to Kashmir to compare the quality of Kashmir willow bats with that of English willow.
