SACHIN 
TENDULKAR

god of cricket


Sachin 
Tendulkar 

Born in 
24 April 
1973.


He took up cricket at 
the age of 11, and 

started his Test 
career against 

Pakistan at the age 
of 16.


Ajit introduced 

him to cricket in 

1984. He 

introduced the 

young Sachin to 

Ramakant 

Achrekar, a 

famous cricket 

coach.


In 1987, at the age 
of 14, he attended 
the MRF Pace 
Foundation in 
Madras (now 
Chennai) to train as 
a fast bowler, but 
Australian fast 
bowler Dennis 
Lillee, who took a 
world record 355 
Test wickets, was 
unimpressed, 
suggesting that 
Tendulkar focus on 
his batting instead.


In 1988, when he was 
just under 16, he 

scored 100 not out in 
for Bombay against 

Gujrat. This was on his 
first-class debut.


He scored a century in 
all three of his Irani 
Trophy, Ranji Trophy 
and Duleep Trophy 
debuts, and became 
the first player to do 
so. He was selected 
for the tour of 
Pakistan next year.


Sachin played 
his first Test 
match against 
Pakistan in 
Karachi in 1989 
at the age of 16. 


HE SCORED A TEST CENTURY AT OLD TRAFFORD IN 
ENGLAND, IN 1990.  THE ENGLISH WERE HIGHLY IMPRESSED 
BY HIS STROKES AND PLACEMENT.


Tendulkar's two tenures as 
captain of the Indian cricket 
team were not very 
successful. When Tendulkar 
took over as captain in 
1996, it was with huge 
hopes and expectations. 
However, by 1997 the team 
was performing poorly.


Tendulkar was dismissed 
seven times in 2007 
between 90 and 100, 

including three times at 
99. Tendulkar has got out 
27 times in the 90s during 

his international career.


TENDULKAR ANNOUNCED 
HIS RETIREMENT FROM 

ONE DAY 
INTERNATIONALS ON 23 

DECEMBER 2012.


On 10 October 

2013 Tendulkar 

announced that 

he would retire 

from all cricket 

after the two-

Test series 

against West 

Indies in 

November.


Sachin Tendulkar is the leading run 
scorer in Tests, with 15,921 runs, as 
well as in One-Day Internationals, with 
18,426 runs.


HE ALSO HOLDS THE 
RECORD OF THE 

HIGHEST NUMBER OF 
CENTURIES IN BOTH 
TESTS (51) AND ODIS 
(49) AS WELL AS IN 

TESTS AND ODIS 
COMBINED (100).
