The historical moment came in 1990, when 17 -year -old Sachin tendulkar scored his first international century on the spot. These shifts, scored under pressure, meant the beginning of the legendary career, and it is still celebrated by those who have witnessed it. Ravi Shastri, spoke to Sky Sports Cricket, remembered the first trial century Tendulkar in Old Trafford and the impact he had on all watching. Shastri was asked if he realized that he was witnessing the size of the tendulcar bat from the balcony. “I certainly did it because I saw him from my days with Mumbai cricket, you know,” Shastri said. “I remember how I interviewed Wisden in the summer of 89, playing for Glamorgan, and there is a quote where I said: He was sent up to play cricket, entertained and went up whenever he wanted.” Shastri, who had first -hand experience with tendulcar skills, spoke of the balance, power and purity of his technique, which excelled at such a young age. “The balance, the power he even had at this age, and the simplicity and purity of his technique that had never changed during her career,” he said. “His technique was very little toy … and a shot of signature – a direct ride – never changed. He had never had a problem against a short ball. Very clean player.”

The admiration of the former head coach for Tendulkara said the game with English legend Michael Atherton, who also appreciated the unrivaled consistency and versatility of the Indian legend. “Most of the doughs, of course, are captain in England and look at opposition players who think: Where is our little chink in armor? Where is it vulnerable? And it was very difficult with Sachin,” Atherton said. Atherton pointed out how Tendulkar had no weaknesses in his game, although he faced some of the most difficult pitch in the world cricket. “Shane Warne played absolutely brilliantly, got hundreds in Perth – so pace, spinning – no weaknesses,” he said, emphasizing Tendulkara’s ability to excel against all forms of bowling.

Who do you think is the largest Indian cricket of all time?
The 1990 test for Old Trafford was strange for Tendulkar when showing remarkable maturity and talent. Set the depressing target of 408 SO more than a one -day game, India was four down at 109 when Tendulkar came out on the bat. However, the teenager composed the brilliant knocking of 119* from 189 balls, which helped India to reach 343/6 and saved the draw. When India faces England in the current test series, with a major victory to remain alive, the team could certainly draw inspiration from Tendulkarov’s unforgettable century in Old Trafford in 1990.
