\"Sachin to play under Chiru\'s captaincy\"
<br>
To include some seriousness in the benefit match only six Telugu film stars would be part of Ganguly XI and Chiranjeevi XI benefit cricket match that is going to be played on 7th September in Vijayawada to raise funds for a cricket stadium to be constructed in that city. Chiranjeevi, Bala Krishna, Venkatesh, Nagarjuna, Srikanth and Tarun are the celebrity Telugu film heroes who would play the match. Sachin Tendulkar is going to play under the captaincy of Chiranjeevi. The other cricket stars - apart from Saurav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar - who play this match include Virender Sehwag, Zaheer Khan, Anil Kumble, Javagal Srinadh, Hemanth Badani, VVS Laxman, AT Rayudu, Parthiv Patel, Venkatesh Prasad, Venkatapathy Raju and Harbhajan Singh.
<br>
And one more thing.
\"Chiru & Sachin exchange compliments\"
<br>
\'I am feeling excited to play under the captaincy of film star Chiranjeevi\' says the baby faced and world\'s most exciting batsman Sachin Tendulkar. Chiru - in his ever-humble gesture - responds by saying that it only shows Sachin\'s down-to-earth attitude. Whatever it might be, the citizens of Vizag are the luckiest people in AP who are going to witness the battle of cricket stars and cinema titans at one place. The profits that are going to be generated through this match would go to the charity of cricket associations in AP. MAA TV would be bringing these precious moments live. Idlebrain.com would always be there to bring you these golden moments though live commentary and exclusive photo galleries. This match is slated on 7th September 2003. Stay tuned!!!
