SACHIN TENDULKARBIOGRAPHY

Born in Mumbai (the former Bombay), India on April 24, 1973, Sachin Tendulkar grew up in a middle-class family. He started his cricketing career at Sharadashram Vidyamandir School, and after showing immediate talent as a batsman, was groomed for international competition.

During his debut first-class match as a player for Bombay, Tendulkar scored a century (100 runs in a match); at age 15, he became the youngest player to ever accomplish this. In his first few matches as a player for India, Tendulkar was unremarkable, scoring handfuls of runs, but failing to make an outstanding mark.

It was during a tour of Australia in 1991 and 1992 that Tendulkar made his mark, dominating games and emerging as India's best batsman. At a game in Perth during the tour, Tendulkar scored 114 runs during one of his most famous innings. His legend grew as he played impressively against other cricket stalwarts in the West Indies, South Africa and Pakistan. 

In 1997, he scored 1,000 test runs for the first time in his career and earned a Cricketer of the Year Award. He would regain the award in 1999, 2001 and 2002, cultivating his status as the country's best cricketer with his impressive batting, inning after inning.

Since his international debut in 1989, Tendulkar has amassed some impressive statistics, including the fourth-highest test cricket run tally, the highest batting average for a player with over 8,500 test runs, and the most runs and centuries in one-day international matches. 

Always putting on his greatest performances during the most highly touted matches, Tendulkar (nicknamed "The Little Master") is an undisputed superstar. His consistent dominance has made him as revered in India as Michael Jordan is in the U.S. -- if notmore. Though his flamboyant style during matches has slowed somewhat with time, this down-to-earth athlete continues to be the game's biggest draw.
