Sachin Tendulkar was born 24th April to a Maratha novelist. The boy with inborn potential was named after a prolific music director Sachin Dev Burman. Sachin was introduced to the match under the correct tutelage of renowned coach Ramakant Achrekar who realized his potential and educated him well to predominate the world of cricket. One of the interesting techniques used by Achrekar in Sachin's training programs was got tired while practising, he used to place a 1 rupee coin in the middle stump and challenged him when he could bat without being dismissed, he'd give that coin for him. (Sachin has made 13 coins as a reward that he considers as one of his most prized possessions.)

Soon the boy began airing a good deal in neighborhood cricketing circles. Back in 1987, he got an opportunity to train as a fast bowler but after celebrating his dominance with the violin, he was proposed to focus only on batting. Among the prominent cricketers of that time Sunil Gavaskar, handed his ultra-light Pads to Sachin, boosting him up to pursue hard due to his fantasies. After 20 decades of this incident, Sachin surpassed Gavaskar's record of 34 Test Centuries. Garmin DriveSmart 55

Sachin made a dynamic debut in Test cricket against Pakistan in 1989 at the time of 16, as he fearlessly batted against the expert bowlers of the time. He had been much dwelled and committed in his play he did not even stop batting regardless of being bowled agonizingly difficult by Waqar Younis and went on to evaluate a range of runs for the team.

He emerged as the highest run scorer of this 1996 and 2003 Cricket World Cup, procuring 523 and 673 runs respectively. He's created an unbeatable record of scoring 30,000 runs in international cricket and reigned the pitch for almost two years, providing stupendous performances, jaw-dropping sixes along with a succession of records, the majority of which he holds and are tough to surpass.
