The Indian batting maestro is without a doubt the greatest batsman to have graced the cricketing field.

But, then the start to his career was nothing to write home about. The 16-year-old made his debut against Pakistan in Karachi on November 15, 1989.

The young turk came with great raps and walked in to bat at number 6. However, he did not look at home straight away and was knocked over by Waqar Younis for only 15.

He did not get to bat in the second innings. However, he did make amends later on. The rest as they is history.
