The youngest
player to wear a test cap for his country -
SachinTendulkar was all of 16 years old when
he took on the mighty Pakistanis in the first
test at Karachi and played alongside some of
his childhood heroes on debut.
He was able to
score only 15 runs in his first innings before
he was castled by fellow debutante Waqar Younis.
Sachin Tendulkar followed up his first stint
on the crease with a masterful 59 runs in the
first innings of the second test at Faisalabad.

What impressed the members of the
cricketing fraternity and the fans alike was the determination
with which this young man faced a tough opposition.The
signs were all there - Sachin Tendulkar was not a
flash in the pan, he had arrived and he was here to
stay. He proved that when he slammed a gutsy 55 on
a fast green top in the second inns of the 4th test
at Sialkot and bailed the Indians out of trouble and
helped them save the test match. [source wikipedia]
