Fans have been applauding the nostalgic memories shared by the former Indian captain. Taking to social media, he shared a photo of himself riding a scooter that he received as a reward for his achievements and which he used to sit on and go for morning workouts.

Fond memories of my early career days when I got this scooter as an acknowledgment of my talent. It was a great luxury as compared to walking, or on some lucky days, cycling for miles to reach the practice stadium in the wee hours,” posted Azharuddin.

His name, Azar, is boldly printed on the green-painted scooter’s headlight, and the fabric seat coverings demonstrate that he still diligently maintains his valued asset which he earned during his cricketing days.
