US President Donald Trump's two-day visit to India was high on goodwill, good gestures, and extravaganza. But the US President had also made quite a few Indians upset when he got the name of legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar wrong.

"This is the country where your people cheer on the biggest cricketers, from Sachin Tendulkar to Virat Kohli, the greatest in the world," Trump had said. However, he was not able to pronounce Sachin's name properly and said "Soo-chin Tendulkar" instead.

Many, including the ICC, was quick to make fun of Trump. ICC released a hilarious mock video of them changing Sachin Tendulkar's name to “Soo-chin” in their official database, with a caption: “Sach-Such-Satch-Sutch-Sooch-Anyone know?”

Former England captain Michael Vaughan too joined the bandwagon, when he tweeted to Tendulkar saying, "How are you today Sue Chin."

Further, he said he wants Trump to visit Pakistan next and say the name of the cricketer Fakhar Zaman. "Can’t wait for @realDonaldTrump to visit Pakistan & see how he pronounces Fakhar Zaman," he tweeted.

However, not everyone got the joke when Vaughan addressed Tendulkar as Sue Chin. An Indian cricket fan appeared to particularly upset as he abused Vaughan and said, “You’ll learn a lesson soon for trolling the legends like Sachin Tendulkar.” However, Vaughan was unfazed. “I think you are taking life a litre too serious .. #OnOn .. Have a brew,” he tweeted in response.

When a user jokingly addressed him as "Wuhan," he replied, "Very very well .. rather like my new name."
