Steve Waugh. Jaishankar, who is on an official visit to Australia, took out time to visit the Sydney Cricket Ground. World Cup winning captain Waugh, who has a strong connect with India, took Jaishankar around the historic SCG and the two also spoke about the game. "Cricket is one of the many bonds that connect India & Australia.
Took time out to visit @scg and meet a living legend, Steve Waugh," Jaishankar tweeted. "Appreciated his warm sentiments for India,both on cricket & otherwise.
Particularly taken in by the recounting of his experiences with @sachin_rt," the Foreign Minister said, referring to the great Sachin Tendulkar.
Waugh, who could not win a Test series in India as captain, is also known for his philanthropic work in the country. Jaishankar had left India last week for a week-long tour of New Zealand and Australia.
