On this day, Tendulkar had retired from all formats of international cricket and it is very special for Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar, who is considered the God of cricket. He had said goodbye to cricket on 16 November 2013 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. India had won the match by an innings and 126 runs, and the series 2-0, but that was reduced to a mere footnote. Pragyan Ojha picked up the man of the match award for his 10-wicket haul – and was aptly cheered for dedicating his award to Sachin.
The loudest applause through the awards ceremony was reserved for Ravi Shastri, for handing over the mike to Tendulkar and saying, “It’s all yours.”
Sachin gave a very emotional speech after the match, which made the eyes of his cricket fans teary. In this speech, Sachin Tendulkar mentioned almost every person who helped him to become a successful cricketer. Sachin’s farewell has been completed for almost four years, but even today, he gets tears from his eyes after hearing those speeches. Sachin played a lot of matches during his career and scored a lot. Sachin established a new record in cricket; rarely anyone could achieve this record.
Sachin has played 200 Test matches, in which he has scored 15 thousand 921 runs at an average of 53.79. His name includes 51 centuries, 68 half-centuries and 6 double centuries.
