New Delhi, Dec 23 (IANS) It did not take much for the cricket pundits to spot a genius in Sachin Tendulkar after he made his international debut in a Test match in Karachi Nov 15, 1989. Sachin may have had to face disparaging banners like Bachche ghar ja ke dudh pi ke aa” (Go home and drink milk, kid”) in the stands during his debut Test series in Pakistan as a 16-year old, but he did give a decent account of himself with two half-centuries (59 at Faisalabad and 57 at Sialkot) against what was perhaps the world's fiercest fast bowling attack back then.

Thus at the age of sixteen, Sachin reached from the domestic cricket to the national team and thereafter, representing India in the international cricket tournaments. Sachin Tendulkar was an early pioneer in India on cricket business dealings when he signed a then record sports management deal with Worldtel in 1995, the value of the deal being 30 crore rupees over 5 years. Tendulkar took three wickets on the final day of the famous Kolkata Test against Australia in 2001. Even in their wildest dreams they cannot contemplate even for a second Sachin is not playing cricket any more. Below are the complete list of all International Centuries scored by Sachin in his career so far.

No matter how hard I try, it is difficult to believe cricket without Tendulkar. The duo of Warne and Tendulkar has had many memorable duels with Tendulkar coming out on top in most. This Test century, being the 35th of his career, saw Sachin surpass the World Test Record of 34, previously held by Indian great Sunil Gavaskar since his retirement in 1987. A wife can express her love to her husband by carefully choosing the right Everything Cricket words.

And in the IPL and the CLT20, the Mumbai Indians performed best when Tendulkar was not the captain. Exactly two months away from his 37th birthday, Sachin paced his innings so remarkably that it would attract the envy of 17-year-olds with big dreams. Not many sportspersons or celebrities show their courtesy for the media, but Tendulkar is different. In 2010, Dhoni signed a contract worth 210 crores (34 Million USD over three years) and 20 endorsements to go with. In 2007, Sachin was dismissed on 99 three times by South Africa, England and Pakistan.

Your husband and son have given up on the gun and tennis for an extreme sport , but that's a tradeoff you'll take, because you know that if you ever want to ask a question, discuss or share your own everyday interests in sports and recreation, you've found the perfect place to do it here on HubPages. Tendulkar scored his first test century against England in 1990 at Old Trafford.

Mentored in his early cricketing days by his elder brother Ajit, Sachin later honed his skills under celebrated coach Ramakant Achrekar. Sachin is going to develop and bring revolutionary changes to this village with 4 crore rupees funds and many more development issues of the rural village were discussed at the official meet with prime minister of India Shri Narendra Modi. Sachin also has nearly 200 international wickets, and another 275 domestic wickets. A few years later he received the ultimate compliment from the ultimate batsman: Don Bradman confided to his wife that Tendulkar reminded him of himself.

Whether people like it or not, Sachin has and will always be one of the greatest sportsmen to grace the game. Shahid Afridi (289) holds a record followed by Sanath Jayasuriya (270) and Sachin Tendulkar (193). Dhoni revealed in an interaction with the people gathered at the country club that Sachin Tendulkar was the one cricketer he always looked upon as a role model - the video of the interaction is at the end of this report. It's a little harsh to say that Dravid took the lead here, because he did come one position ahead of Tendulkar. I was fielding in the covers Tendulkar came out to bat in his debut Test at Karachi.

Villagers and local people of the rural village Puttamraju Kandriga' in Potti Sriramulu Nellore district in Andhra Pradesh are very found celebrating on knowing this fact and are welcoming the decision of Sachin Tendulkar and Government of India. Tendulkar continued his good form in Test cricket in 2001 and 2002, with some pivotal performances with both bat and ball. It is the same media that was praising Sachin few years back when he was calling the shots.
