Sachin Tendulkar became the highest scorer in Test cricket after Surpassing West Indies legends Brian Lara in the ongoing second test in Mohali.
Tendulkar is also on the verge of creating another landmark as he will also be the first player to amass 12000 runs in Test cricket. The 35-year-old batting maestro is already the world's top-scorer in One-Day International (16,361) and has the most centuries in Test matches (39) and One-dayers (42).
Sachin made his Test debut at the tender age
of 16 against Pakistan in 1989 in Karachi. From there on the little master of
world cricket has never looked back.
The Mumbaikar came into
limelight with his first Test century on a seaming Old Trafford track against a
formidable English attack as he saved the match for India. Congratulate to Sachin Tendulkar.
