The game has seen many famous figures who have made significant contributions from the Indian cricketing community. The best hitter to ever go onto the pitch, Sachin Tendulkar, is one of the great cricketers who is still admired today.
From his 100 international hundreds to his superb stroke play and ability to score runs wherever in the park, the Master Blaster’s 24-year journey is full of memorable events. At the board’s annual gala, which will take place in Mumbai on Saturday before the fifth and final Twenty20 International match against England, the legendary batter will be presented with the BCCI Lifetime Achievement award for his accomplishments. The last time Farokh Engineer and Ravi Shastri received the esteemed prize was in 2024.
Even after he retired from cricket, Sachin Tendulkar, also referred to as the God of Cricket,
continues to hold the records for most international games played (664 matches) and most runs scored (34357, with 18426 in ODIs and 15921 in Test matches).
The Bharat Ratna, Padma Vibhushan, Padma Shri, Maharashtra Bhushan, Khel Ratna Award, and Arjuna Award are just a few of the prestigious honours that the Mumbai-born individual has earned from the government and cricketing boards.
In terms of his T20 cricket accomplishments, Tendulkar may have only participated in one Twenty20 International for India, but he has participated in 96 T20 matches for the Mumbai Indians in franchise cricket, scoring 2797 runs at an average of 32.90, including 16 half-centuries and a century against the now-defunct Kochi Tuskers Kerala in 2011 at the Wankhede stadium. Even after his retirement, he still leads the Mumbai Indians to their first IPL final in 2010 and is their fifth-highest run scorer.
