Sachin started his cricket career at the age of 16 against Pakistan in 1989. At that time the world was dominated by Pakistani bowlers like Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis. In the fourth test match of that series, a ball from Waqar hit Sachin's face. Sachin was given medical treatment after being covered in blood. People started feeling that now he will not be able to bat. But then a voice came that 'I will play'. Seeing this spirit of Sachin, Navjot Sidhu, who was batting with him, was also quite surprised.
Had hit a century at the age of 12
At the age of 12, Sachin scored a century while playing for his school. He made this century in the Under-17 Harris Shield. Two years later, he shared a record partnership of 664 runs with his friend and former cricketer Vinod Kambli. Sachin did not stop here and after making his first-class debut for Mumbai at the age of 15, he scored a century in the debut matches of Ranji Trophy, Duleep Trophy and Irani Trophy.
