Career

Debut

At the age of 16, Sachin Tendulkar made his international debut in 1989 against Pakistan, hitting 15 runs before being dismissed by Waqar Younis. He was sent out for a duck by Waqar in his first ODI match against Pakistan in Gujranwala in 1989.

  • In 1988, he began his domestic first-class career, playing for Mumbai, and in his very first game, he struck a century. He finished the year with the most runs scored.
  • He was quickly chosen for the national squad due to his stellar play in first-class matches. At the age of barely 16, he faced Pakistan in his first international test.
  • Even though he did not manage to score many runs during the series, he was noticed for both his hitting style and his commitment to the game. In 1989, he also made his One Day International (ODI) debut.
  • He scored 148 runs in one game and 114 in another while batting against renowned bowlers like Merv Hughes, Craig McDermott, and Bruce Reid during the 1991–1992 Australian tour.
  • In 1994, when he was asked to open the batting against New Zealand in an ODI, he lit up the place, scoring 82 runs off just 49 balls. He scored his first ODI century against Australia the same year.
  • Australia was on tour in India in 1998, and the matchup was advertised as a “Sachin against Warne” match. In the three-test series, Sachin destroyed Warne and scored two centuries. India won the series, and Sachin was a key factor in that victory.
  • Both of Sachin’s brief appearances as the captain of the Indian cricket team were unsuccessful. He assumed the role of captain in 1996, but after the team’s dismal performance, he relinquished it in 1997.
  • In 1999, he was appointed captain once more, but due to his lackluster performance, he resigned the following year.
  • His outstanding performance helped India reach the finals of the 2003 “Cricket World Cup,” when they were one of the favorites to win. He scored 673 runs in 11 matches.
  • The squad did, however, lose to Australia in the championship game, and Sachin was named “Man of the Tournament.”
  • After going through a challenging time, he found his form again in 2007 and finished 11,000 test runs, becoming India’s top run scorer.
  • Sachin Tendulkar displayed his incredible batting abilities by scoring 493 runs in four tests during the 2007–2008 Border–Gavaskar Trophy.
  • In the 2011 “World Cup,” Sachin Tendulkar performed at his peak, scoring 482 runs, including two centuries. In the championship game, India defeated Sri Lanka, giving him his first “World Cup” title.
  • After the “World Cup,” his performance suffered, and he experienced a lean period. In November 2013, he announced his retirement from all forms of cricket, and his supporters gave him a heartfelt send-off.
  • He was named the “Franchise Icon” for the well-known “IPL” team “Mumbai Indians” in 2014. Additionally, he was named the 2015 “ICC Cricket World Cup” ambassador.

Sachin Tendulkar Retirement

He declared his retirement from the limited overs format in 2012 after a dismal performance against England. He kept up his test-playing cricket.
