Former legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, who is regarded as one of the Greatest of all time in the game, received wishes from all around the world on his 50th birthday on April 24. Popularly known as the Master Blaster, Tendulkar began his international career at the age of 16 in 1989. He played for India's national cricket team for almost 24 years till he announced his retirement at the age of 40 in 2013.

Tendulkar was more than simply a national player; he also had a devoted following all across the world. Such was the impact he had on the cricketing community that the audience yelling "Sachin Sachin" from the stands was a common sight in his day. There were hardly any records that did not feature Tendulkar's name because of his incredible career for India in both the Test and ODI forms.

Tendulkar made the Indian team fearless, and he never once felt intimidated even while facing the best bowlers in the world, like Wasim Akram, Glenn Mcgrath, Shoaib Akhtar, Curtley Ambrose, and many more. His technique was nearly flawless, and he contributed significantly to India's World Cup victory in 2011, which ended up being the final major competition of his career.

Tendulkar was well ahead of every other cricketer in terms of numbers when it came to his records, and it might not be simple to catch up to him. The right-hander became the first player to ever record 100 centuries in international cricket and has amassed more than 34,000 international runs in 664 games across formats, more than any other batter. He was also the first player ever to record a 200-run ODI individual score.

The Bharat Ratna, the highest civilian distinction in India, was given to Tendulkar in 2014 for his contributions to Indian cricket. He is widely regarded as the "God of Cricket" and received this title in 2014. After retiring from cricket, he is now serving as a mentor with the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League.
