"I remember walking out and looking around the field and seeing all my heroes"- Kane Williamson on playing against the likes of Sachin Tendulkar on his debut Test

Talking to the reporters ahead of his 100th Test, New Zealand stalwart Kane Williamson reminisced about his debut match, where he went up against several legendary players. It was against India in Ahmedabad in 2010, which featured the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, and VVS Laxman. He said:

"I remember walking out and looking around the field and seeing all my heroes. I used to love playing backyard cricket as a youngster, and all those guys were in that team that I would try and select. It was Tendulkar and Laxman and Dravid, and it was kind of like, 'How am I here? I'd better start watching the ball and try and compete," said Williamson.

Williamson continued:

"It was quite surreal. I remember being quite eager to try and get into the opposition's dressing room and chat to some of those guys if I could. Then a few grey hairs later and [after] a number of different experiences over that time, there's not been many days - probably any - where I haven't tried to improve and get better as a player."

Kane Williamson made an instant impression by hitting a century (131) in the first innings and helped New Zealand get to 459 in reply to India's 487. The match eventually ended in a draw.
