During his visits to India, Bolt had previously played cricket matches at promotional events. He played a cricket match with Yuvraj Singh and then raced against the Indian cricket player.
Bolt has eight Olympic gold medals before retirement, three of which were 100m back-to-back gold medals.
Since 1984, he was the only man to win both the 100m and 200m at the same Olympic Games.
Bolt broke the 100m and 200m world records in Peking at 9.58 sec and 19.19 sec respectively.
Usain Bolt also conducted trials in top football clubs to become a professional footballer following his retirement.
Despite scoring the Australian A-League team Central Coast Mariners on a few occasions, Bolt could not acquire a contract for himself.
He trained in South Africa with Mamelodi Sundowns, Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund and Stromsgodset in Norway.
He later dismissed Maltese Club Valletta’s two-year contract offer.
