Sachin Tendulkar is one of the greatest batsmen in cricket history. He scored 15,921 Test runs, and 18,426 ODI runs for Team India.

Tendulkar represented the Mumbai Indians in the IPL. Ricky Ponting, who captained the Mumbai-based franchise in IPL 2013, included Jasprit Bumrah in the playing XI for their season opener against the Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Bumrah, born in 1993, is one of the top fast bowlers in world cricket right now. The right-arm pacer got the honor of playing with Sachin Tendulkar even though he was born four years after his international debut.

In IPL 2021, Bumrah will feature alongside Sachin's son Arjun Tendulkar.

2. Yuvraj Singh - international cricket debut in 2000 played with Mujeeb ur Rahman - born in 2001

Yuvraj Singh was the hero of Team India's 2011 World Cup win

Yuvraj Singh played for multiple IPL franchises in his career. He was the skipper of the Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) in the inaugural season. Three years later, the Mohali-based franchise released Singh from their squad.

Ahead of IPL 2018, the Kings XI brought Yuvraj Singh back to the franchise. Although he did not have a memorable season that year, he created a unique record in IPL 2018.

Mujeeb ur Rahman is a T20 star

The Indian all-rounder, who made his debut in 2000, featured in the same playing XI as Mujeeb ur Rahman, born in 2001. The Afghanistan leg-spinner picked up two wickets in that match against the Delhi Capitals.

Interestingly, when Yuvraj started playing international cricket, Afghanistan Cricket Board was not even an affiliate member of ICC.

The Royal Challengers Bangalore surprised many fans when they bid for teenage leg-spinner Prayas Ray Barman at IPL 2019 auction. The young bowling all-rounder made his IPL debut against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.

In his debut match, Prayas was a part of the same XI as Parthiv Patel, who played his first international game for Team India in August 2002, two months before Barman was born.
