“A 50 off 55 when no one else has done it that easy.” Sachin Tendulkar’s final Test appearance at the Melbourne Cricket Ground came during the Boxing Day Test of 2011. On Day 2, a crowd of over 55,000 rose to give him a thunderous standing ovation. The Channel... show more

Do You Know…. Sachin Tendulkar spent more time as the youngest player in his team than anyone else in Test history. The first Test in which Tendulkar was not India’s youngest came at Motera in 1996, when VVS Laxman debuted at 21 while Tendulkar was 23. His final Test as India’s youngest was at Hamilton in 1999, aged 25. Between 1989 and 1999, he played 48 Tests as India’s youngest, scoring 3,423 runs at an outstanding average of 53.48 - one of the top 10 averages ever by a team’s youngest player. Remarkably, Tendulkar also featured in 40 Tests as the youngest player on both sides, underlining just how early and how long, he carried that prodigy tag.

Happy Birthday Nayan Mongia One of India’s finest wicket-keeper is more remembered for his off the field controversies. 107 dismissals in 44 tests, he looked the most comfortable keeper while standing up to Kumble’s bowling. He also scored a test hundred, that too as an opener against Australia in 1996 and made 52 in his partnership with Tendulkar’s in the fourth innings of that famous Chennai Test, 1999.

“First-innings dismissal was dodgy, there was no third umpire. The second-innings dismissal was absolutely plumb. Tendulkar set a trap for me, and I fell for it.” ~ Adam Gilchrist on his dismissals in the famous Kolkata Test, the match that featured VVS Laxman’s greatest innings of 281 and the best Test he was ever part of.

India pass first real test with ease In the first real test for both sides, India won comfortably, bowling out the West Indies for 173 and, inspired by Sachin Tendulkar, chasing it inside 40 overs. Both innings followed a similar pattern: two early wickets, a brief recovery, then the captain falling in the deep around the early nineties. Tendulkar scored 70 off 91 balls to earn his second straight match award before being run out in a mix-up with Kambli, who then guided the chase to the finish. #OnThisDay in 1996.

One of the most exciting counterattack. The test at Port Elizabeth (Boxing Day Test) in 1992 is remembered for one of Kapil Dev’s most defiant innings. India were reeling at 31 for 6, with none of the top six reaching double figures. Walking in at 27 for 5, Kapil’s first job was damage control. Batting with an injured right hand, he counter-attacked brilliantly, scoring 129, with 96 coming the next morning off 144 balls. His fearless stroke play rescued India from total embarrassment and lifted the innings to a respectable total. It was a classic Kapil Dev knock, brave, bold, and inspirational.

Rohit Sharma in this 2016 Test series vs NZ: 5 inngs, 238 runs, avg 79. He got injured during the ODI series that followed and had to miss the home Test series against ENG and AUS. When he returned for the SL tour, he wasn’t given a chance to play. In the next test series he played, he scored 217 runs in 3 innings at an average of 217 against SL at home. Then came the South Africa tour, where almost every Indian batter struggled: Murali Vijay: 102 runs in 6 innings Pujara: 100 runs in 6 innings KL Rahul: 30 runs in 4 innings Rahane: 57 runs in 2 innings Dhawan: 32 runs in 2 innings Rohit: 78 runs in 4 innings Despite everyone failing except Virat, only Rohit was dropped for the England tour, after which he tweeted his iconic, “The sun will rise again.” Finally, after every opener failed, he got another chance, opening against South Africa at home, and delivered 529 runs in 4 innings at an average of 132.

At 14, Sachin Tendulkar scored a century on his Ranji Trophy debut. At 15, he handled Kapil Dev with ease in the nets when invited by Dilip Vengsarkar. At 16, he was struck on the nose by a bouncer from Waqar Younis, yet went on to score a fighting fifty and help save the Test match. At 16, he also took on the premier leg-spinner of that era, Abdul Qadir, smashing 53 off 18 balls and adding 65 runs with Srikkanth, whose contribution was just 12. At 17, he scored 96 off 75 balls in a Ranji Trophy final while chasing 355, putting on a 134-run partnership with Vengsarkar. At 17, he registered a match-saving Test century in England. At 18, he became the first Indian to score a Test hundred at WACA Ground, widely regarded as one of the fastest pitches in the world, in his very first innings there despite having no prior exposure to such conditions. Just because everything wasn’t recorded at the time doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Comparisons are inevitable, but that doesn’t mean Tendulkar at 15 wasn’t already exceptional.

“I remember, at the end of the day’s play, Sachin was on the ground, still catching. He dropped a high catch, and he was pretty upset about it.” ~ Amol Muzumdar recalling the 1991 Ranji Trophy Final. That was probably the only instance in Sachin Tendulkar’s career when he dropped a catch. There are thousands of videos of Indian matches available, yet you would be hard-pressed to find even a single video of Tendulkar dropping a catch. A highly underrated fielder, often overlooked simply because he wasn’t a natural diver on the cricket field.
