The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) on Saturday inaugurated the newly constructed Sharad Pawar Cricket Stadium on the premises of historic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai

In the beginning, the former players and officials of the board were welcomed by 'Dhol Tasha Pathak'

During the ceremony, the two statues of former MCA President, Sharad Pawar, and legendary Team India cricketer, Sunil Gavaskar, were unveiled, which were placed outside the museum

Later, the 'Little Master' himself was seen striking a pose next to his statue. The statue holds a significant importance, as it is sculpted in such a way that Gavaskar is seen celebrating his 10,000th run in the history of Test cricket. He was the first-ever player in the game's history to achieve the feat

Gavaskar's son, Rohan, was also seen posing next to his father's statue along with his entire family

Former MCA president, Sharad Pawar, was also snapped next to his statue outside Mumbai's museum
