Sourav Ganguly Says, ‘Sachin Tendulkar was a Sleepwalker’ (Watch Video)

Sourav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar have known each other for quite a long time now. The two were friends even before they went on to represent India. Over the years the two went on to open the innings for India and became one of the most threating pairs. Also, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that the two share a very special bond which is still intact after the two have retired from cricket.

While reminiscing about the good old days on Breakfast With Champions, Ganguly spilt a few beans on Sachin Tendulkar’s. "We were roommates in England. So, one day I saw he was walking in the room. I said to myself, he just gone to the bathroom and I slept facing the other side. I didn't ask him anything the next day. The second day, I again saw him walking into the room. So I woke up and sat thinking, what does he do at 1.30 in the night. He takes a round in the room and then sits on the chair, come and then sleeps next to me "So next day I told him, 'you're scaring me, what do you do at night?' He said 'No, I walk while sleeping'...He had this habit of sleepwalking," he said. Watch the video below:

The left-hander also revealed an incident when Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli played a prank on Ganguly. “I was sleeping in the afternoon on Sunday, I was 14 years old then. I was in Indore in a national camp. Vasu sir used to make us run a lot. Sunday afternoon we had a leave. So me and my roommate were sleeping. We woke up at 5 [in the evening] and saw only water in the room and suitcases were floating. I thought the pipe burst in the room. I went into the bathroom and it was dry. As I opened the door, Vinod Kambli and Sachin Tendulkar were standing in front with buckets and they were going to get more water. "I said 'what are you guys doing?'...they said 'why are you sleeping in the afternoon?' I said 'did I commit a crime sleeping in the afternoon?' They said 'we will play cricket with the tennis ball'. I said 'you could've woke me up by knocking'," said the former captain laughingly.
