Under the observing eyes of Australian coach Ricky Ponting, Mumbai players Lasith Malinga and Aaron Finch slogged hard at the nets as Tendulkar and Rohit were busy chatting.
"He was sharing his thoughts about the strategy for tomorrow's game," Rohit later said about his conservation with Tendulkar.
"Sachin has been an integral part of the team ever since he started playing for MI and whenever we need him he is always there for us."
