The current BCCI HQ are housed at the iconic venue in Mumbai.
During the speech, Tendulkar spoke about the disappointment of 2007 World Cup where India exited in the group stage.
"2007 when we got back from the West Indies, number of thoughts came to me. Whether it was time to continue or move aside. I remember having a conversation with my brother. My brother said, 'In 2011, the World Cup will be played in India and the final will be in Mumbai at Wankhede Stadium. With this trophy, can you imagine yourself taking a victory lap.' That's where the journey began again. For those four years, there was only one goal. This trophy," said Tendulkar while pointing at the World Cup trophy.
"From possibly the toughest moment in my life, 2007, to 2011, the best cricketing moment in my life. It was a remarkable journey," he added.
He further said, "Hopefully I will be somewhere part of the decision when you know the important meetings are held, right decisions are made, which gives us a reason to celebrate".
Earlier in the week, "10000 Gavaskar" boardroom was inaugurated to honour Sunil Gavaskar , another of Mumbai's legend. On Friday, Rohit Sharma stand was inaugurates at the Wankhede stadium.
