3 greatest Indian cricketers of all time

#2 Sachin Tendulkar

He inspired millions not just in India, but across the globe

Sachin Tendulkar made his Test debut at the tender age of 16. His is a story of talent, endurance and legacy has inspired and continues to inspire millions of people across the globe.

While internationally he's considered to be the greatest batsman of all time by many, he means much more than that in his country. He's an icon worshiped by people.

He has earned the respect of his countrymen not just by setting batting records but more importantly, by carrying himself with dignity and pride throughout his illustrious career. Tendulkar has been a role model for aspiring cricketers and has not had a blemish to his reputation despite being in the limelight since such a young age.

While India has always been known as a country with great cricketing talent, this little man from Mumnai put his country at the top of world cricket, in terms of the quality of batsmen it generates.

His work ethic, humility, and the single-minded focus to succeed have been a springboard for a whole new breed of Indian batting talent to emerge. A product of this process is a certain gentleman called Virat Kohli!
