As if breaking batting records was not enough, Sachin Tendulkar remains the youngest ODI debutant for India. His career started as early as 16, almost a year before the second placed Maninder Singh. Sachin was included in the Indian team for the Pakistan tour of 1989 where he first made his Test debut against the fiery attack of Wasim Akram, Imran Khan, and Waqar Younis.
His first ODI runs came against New Zealand when he scored a modest 36 but left an impact with classy strokes which were imprinted on the hearts of fans worldwide. What happened next is history, for Sachin went on to play a mammoth 463 games shattering all records, playing countless match-winning knocks, and finally getting his hands on the prized ICC World Cup in 2011.
A Player like Sachin Tendulkar is not just a treat to watch but emotion to many.
