Year 1989 An unknown 16-year-old boy came to play an international test match for India. That too against arch-rivals Pakistan, at their home ground in Karachi. It started from there. Then 24 years passed.

He made history one after another in his long cricket career. Added various titles next to the name. At the very last stage, he became the 'Cricket God'.
